About Cook and Becker:

Quote
We have a passion for next-gen art, and artists and studio's that represent the best of the international video game and entertainment industries.

We started Cook and Becker in 2011 because we thought that the art world wasn't paying enough attention to the creators of video games and pop culture, and how these artists and designers are shaping our time and visual culture. We also saw that while artists and buyers were embracing the digital world, the art world seemed stuck in the previous century. We wanted to change that.

Since our foundation Cook and Becker has grown into a specialist for art prints and the world's leading (online) art gallery and concept store for video game art. We also publish and produce art books and beautiful design products. We work together with the best artists and designers and the biggest video game studios, to create the best art prints and art books and valuable products based on video games and digital culture. We focus both on fine art and applied art and design and on both individual projects as well as commercial blockbusters. All these forms contribute to our visual language and culture and we want to share that with you.

Cook and Becker has also become a quality hallmark. We continue to strive to improve the presentation and (re)production of digital and digitally enhanced art. We therefore work closely with artists to produce their art at a museum-grade levels so that we can offer enthusiasts and collectors, art prints, books and objects that last a lifetime and retain their value.

So, for those fine art collectors among you, you may want to look in to one of these, but they will set you back a bit, with all of the pieces going for $100+.

Blizzard really does have some great Art-work.

Personally, I won't buy it, but you can definitly spent more money for much worse stuff.

      Blizzard games like World of Warcraft, Hearthstone, and Overwatch 2 might soon make a comeback in China, thanks to Blizzard reportedly teaming up again with NetEase.
      The news comes from Core Esports, which suggests Blizzard's game services could be back by the end of March or the beginning of April.
      After 14 years of partnership, Blizzard and NetEase hit a rough patch in 2022, leading to failed negotiations. Consequently, when the licensing agreement concluded on January 23, 2023, Blizzard's game services were suspended across mainland China.
      For more details, you can check out the article in Chinese or find an English translation by Amy Chen on esports.gg.

      According to WSJ, Bobby Kotick, former CEO of Activision Blizzard, has floated the idea of buying TikTok to potential partners.
      Former Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick has reportedly shown interest in purchasing TikTok, as legislation in the U.S. threatens to ban or force the sale of the popular app over national security concerns.
      Kotick is said to be seeking partners for the potential acquisition, discussing the opportunity with notable figures including OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. The move comes amid growing scrutiny over TikTok's data privacy practices and its ties to China, with U.S. lawmakers pushing for decisive action.
      You can read the whole news piece over at WSJ.
      Bobby Kotick left his position at Activision Blizzard in December 2023 after Microsoft finalized its purchase of the company. Post-acquisition, he reportedly received over $375 million, as detailed by Forbes.
