When Blizzard first announced Overwatch, many fans of the company were wary about how well the shooter would do once released. Within a year, the FPS from the creators of games like World of Warcraft and Diablo became a multi-million dollar franchise. Now it looks like the conglomerate has something new up their sleeves if a recent job posting is anything to go by.

Though not much, the recent job listing does give a little insight into what type of game we can look forward to. This "unannounced MMO RTS project" seems promising, and we now know what type of platform they are aiming for. Take a look at the official listing below:

"Senior Client Engineer, Unannounced Project: Blizzard Entertainment is seeking an experienced Unity mobile client engineer to work on an unannounced MMO RTS project. The ideal applicant has an unwavering passion for mobile development and solving engineering problems unique to mobile app environments. If you thrive in an environment that values creativity, collaboration, and knowledge sharing, then drop us a line!"

This also falls in line with another job posting for the same project, but instead for a Lead Artist:

"Blizzard Entertainment is looking for an experienced Lead Artist to help us guide the art vision and development for a new game experience for mobile. Your goal is to meld great art with great gameplay by leading the art team, creating production artwork, and actively communicating and thriving on a small team."

It'll be interesting to see what Blizzard has in store. With BlizzCon '17 right around the corner, it is possible we may see some form of an official announcement then on the upcoming project!
