1993 - Rock N' Roll Racing- a battle-racing video game

Rock N' Roll Racing is a battle-racing video game developed by Silicon & Synapse (now known as Blizzard Entertainment) and published by Interplay for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis and the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1993. It was ported to the Game Boy Advance in 2003.

The game is very similar to the first game ever developed by Silicon & Synapse, RPM Racing (for the SNES). It is also similar in gameplay to the NES game R.C. Pro-Am developed by Rare in 1988.

The background music consists of instrumental versions of several heavy metal and rock n' roll songs (hence the game's title).

The company changes its name to Chaos Studios

In 1994, the company briefly changed its name to Chaos Studios, before finally settling on Blizzard Entertainment after it was discovered that another company with the Chaos name already existed. That same year, they were acquired by distributor Davidson & Associates for under ?10 million. Shortly thereafter, Blizzard shipped their breakthrough hit Warcraft: Orcs and Humans.

1994 - Blackthorne - the video game
