As the release of Diablo IV approaches, Blizzard has decided to do everything possible to promote this new component and will soon launch a major collaboration with one of the most controversial games of recent years.
hells everywhere and always
The 2023 video game season is in full swing! After the tidal wave The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the KingdomNext June will see the turn of another major video game license with the release of Diablo IVa work that fans of Blizzard’s hack ‘n slash saga have been waiting for so much.
The studio sees great expectations for this new component. For the first time in franchise history, Sanctuary is free to roam the open world. A huge novelty that players saw during the different phases of testing organized by the developers.
In addition, we also remember the return of iconic classes, as well as a new leveling system that offers more freedom thanks to a fully customizable skill tree. Unlike the previous part, which was intended to be more “accessible” to a certain extent, this work aims to diversify the builds to give players more freedom to customize their characters and their adventure as they wish .
According to the developers, Diablo IV is intended to appeal to both longtime fans looking for an experience more faithful to the early days of the license, and newcomers who have never gotten their hands on a Diablo, whether or not devotees of the genre or not.
A major challenge, which is also reflected in sustainable marketing by the studio. Next step: a collaboration with Diablo Immortal, the mobile work of the license, which is far from unanimous in the community.
Lilith arrives in Diablo Immortal
June 2023 therefore marks the release of Diablo IV, but also provides an opportunity to celebrate the first year of service of Diablo Immortal, which was officially released on June 2nd last year. Blizzard therefore wanted to share its roadmap for this special anniversary and has been announcing new features for almost two months.
The celebrations begin at the beginning of the month with the event Relentless monstrosity, which was supposed to bring creatures from the Diablo IV bestiary back to Immortal. In addition, the studio announces a new Battle Pass dedicated to Lilith, the main threat of this latest installment. This Battle Pass comes with the Legacy of Hate Ghost Market.
But that’s not all ! Diablo Immortal is also getting a major content update with a new main quest chapter that will take players to the far corners of Sanctuary on a mysterious island known as the Cradle of the Ancients. This update will also feature a new player vs. player event, new side quests and bounties, and new creatures.
Finally, the studio is also talking about a brand new new class that has never existed in the license before. According to Blizzard, this class “encourages a medium-range combat style with conventional weapons.” A first picture (visible above) was shared. See you from June 2nd to discover these new features.
