The Monk class was revealed for Diablo III at BlizzCon today, and the first in-game screens have popped up over on Shack.

It looks rather good.

You can find out loads more through our liveblog transcript of the event here.

Here we go again with another liveblog kiddos. This time it’s BlizzCon 2009.

Be sure and come back to this space for the Opening Ceremony of BlizzCon, and maybe, just maybe we will hear more about the rumored Cataclysm expansion for World of Warcraft, updates on StarCraft II and Diablo III – and who knows – Blizzard may announce its secret MMO.

One can only dream.

The schedule says that doors open for attendees around 10:00am PST/1:00pm EST – that’s around 6:00pm for the UK and things will get started around 11:30 PST/2:30 EST/7:30 UK.

So, throw on a pot of coffee and join us for up-to-the-minute liveblogging of the Opening Ceremony after the break.

The first batch of BlizzCon 09 tickets sold out within minutes of going up for sale.

Not really surprising, is it?

The second batch is set to go up May 30. If you didn’t get yours today, you can always try again then.

Best of luck.

BlizzCon 09 tickets will be available starting May 16, Blizzard said today.

The event runs August 21-22 at the Anaheim Convention Center. Tickets will run you $125 a piece.

If you miss out on getting tickets the day of the sale, Blizzard will put another stack up for sale on May 30. Improvements have been made to the Blizzard store interface so there shouldn’t be another ticket fiasco this year.

Those unable to attend the event can watch it live on DirectTV and Pay-per-View for the price of $40. Anyone who orders the event will get a BlizzCon-exclusive World of Warcraft in-game item.

Press release is below.
