While it’s a given that the game is in development ( going by reports and what was heard during the show by our managing editor Amanda Farough) – in fact, Adham made sure to point out there was several projects in the series in the works for that set of fans (“For our diehard PC fans, we will say though, we still have multiple Diablo teams working on multiple unannounced Diablo projects. Many of them are being developed internally only, and we’ll have information to share on those in the future,”įor anyone looking forward to a true Diablo IV, this likely isn’t music to your ears.

“Some of them are with external partners like Diablo Immortal. “Many of us over the last few years have shifted from playing primarily desktop to playing many hours on mobile, and we have many of our best developers now working on new mobile titles across all of our IP,” he said in the video (via USGamer). Speaking at Blizzcon last week, Adham said some of these games will be made with external partners like with Chinese company NetEase, who are working on Immortal. The trailer has received an impressive number of down votes, and social media and message boards are overflowing with comments from folks who feel wronged in some way.Last week’s announcement of Diablo Immortal for mobile is only the start of Blizzard’s new approach to mobile gaming.īlizzard co-founder Allen Adham has promised there’s more to come in regards to mobile from the company. The announcement was met with a heck of a lot of heckling.

We still have multiple Diablo teams working on multiple unannounced Diablo projects. We have said that we have multiple Diablo teams working on multiple Diablo projects and that remains true, even after releasing Switch and announcing Diablo: Immortal.
