We’ve added Svartberg’s latest creation, Priestess to the Blizzard Fan Art gallery. Take a moment to gaze over this mysterious, alluring devotée of the Light!

We’re always looking for new fan art and if you’re an artist, you can submit your work to us here. We update the Gallery regularly and encourage you to check regularly to see what new and talented submissions are on display.

If you don’t already have your very own Blizzard Account, now is the perfect time to create one. A Blizzard Account allows you to keep all your Blizzard registration keys (WarCraft III, StarCraft, Diablo II…) in one handy place, and to download your registered games when you need them from any computer you are using. The Blizzard Account gives you access to the Online Store, where you can buy Blizzard games and other products, including the Blizzard Authenticator.

Our new stock of Authenticators is expected to arrive mid to late September, and should be available for purchase on the Online Store at this time.

If you enjoy the music from Blizzard Entertainment games and have ever thought about ordering the soundtracks, doing so just got more convenient. Six soundtrack albums have just been added to a new Blizzard hub page within the iTunes music store, and are available for purchase and download. The StarCraft, Diablo II, Warcraft III, World of Warcraft, and The Burning Crusade soundtracks are all there, as is the Taverns of Azeroth album, which had been exclusively sold at BlizzCon 2007. For more information, check out the official announcement, or head over to the Blizzard iTunes page.
