Earlier today Diablo's Wyatt Cheng took to the stage to reveal Diablo Immortal, an upcoming mobile version of the long-running franchise that Cheng claims is a 'full-fledged action RPG you can play anywhere with anyone.'ĭiablo Immortal takes place 5 years after the corrupted World Stone was shattered at the end of Diablo 2. Westmarch will be the game’s central hub, however.It would appear that Blizzard may have saved the best for last at their Blizzcon 2018 opening ceremony depending on how you feel about mobile titles. The game will take place somewhere in the 20-year span between Diablo 2 and Diablo 3, and will revisit some of those games’ locations. There are more details on the game’s website as well as the Activision press release, including the six character classes players will choose from Barbarian, Crusader, Demon Hunter, Monk, Necromancer and Wizard.

There was, however, the most energy-sucking announcement of them all a mobile partnership between Blizzard Entertainment and Netease to create a “mobile massively multiplayer online action-role-playing game” for Android and iOS called Diablo Immortal. There was no announcement of a Diablo 2 or Diablo remaster. That’s right we did not see the reveal or tease of Diablo 4. BlizzCon’s Diablo Immortal announcement was the last thing most core fans of the franchise wanted. Diablo 3 has pretty much run its course by now, and fans have been clamoring for the next great thing from the franchise. When Blizzard announced there would be multiple projects to be announced in 2018, it was hard not to be a little excited about the franchise’s future.
