Blizzard Next-Gen MMO Officially Confirmed NOT a New WoW Expansion

Jobs have been listed for this 'next gen' MMO for quite awhile now but with no official response from Blizzard on just what this project is, speculation has been rampant. Many people believed this new project would just be another WoW expansion, but finally a Blizzard official has responded to confirm that this next-gen project is in fact an entirely new MMO:

Drysc:
No, it is an unannounced Next-Gen MMO.

And that doesn't mean an expansion for World of Warcraft either.

The confirmation is available here on the official WoW boards.
