Maybe, but Blizzard seldom teases stuff that early. The last times they did that was pre-Blizzcon. They never officially acknowledged Project Titan at Blizzcon, for instance...we only saw the leftovers when they released OW.
Honestly they were in a pickle. Capping the show with WC3 would have seemed tired and OW/WOW/HS were just additional content for existing games. Logically it makes sense to cap it off with a new game, but a mobile game no doubt primarily targeted at the Asian mobile market to make shareholders happy was really bad optics and a passionate (and feeling betrayed) fanbase is going to eviscerate your game even if they never actually try it, because just the idea is abhorrent to them.
I still want Titan more then the current state of OW but $20 million buy ins for your mediocre esport give Activision suits a bigger hard on instead of actually delivering a decent FPS MMO. The only thing still impressive with Blizz is there cinematic/art department and even the newest palette swapped Ashe is starting to show their cracks since apparently same face now has to be a thing with them.
