It’s insulting enough to insist that you download the iOS or Android version on every other loading screen, clearly showing where Blizzard wants you to play. Neither of those games have obscenely large menu elements on their PC versions, and they don’t have references to inputs that aren’t even possible on most PCsĪ seamless experience is important for a game Blizzard expects players to dump hundreds of hours into (and hundreds of dollars, it turns out), but Diablo Immortal doesn’t go to those lengths. Games like Fortnite and Genshin Impact work on PC and mobile, but they’re built specifically for those platforms. From the opening screen that reads “Tap to Play,” it’s clear that Diablo Immortal is a mobile port, not a game you can play across PC and mobile. Blizzard recently revealed the Necromancer will be Diablo IV's fifth and final class at launch, and will feature a new unique Necromancer class mechanic called the Book of the Dead.Built for mobile Andy Boxall/Digital Trendsĭiablo Immortal is built for mobile first, which is one of the reasons our gaming editor, Giovanni Colantonio, enjoyed the game so much in the first place.
It will, however, feature an in-game shop and microtransactions in the form of cosmetics. Given concerns about Diablo Immortal's microtransactions, Blizzard has clarified that Diablo IV, which is set to release sometime in 2023, won't include the ability to buy power like in Diablo Immortal. In GameSpot's Diablo Immortal review, we called the game "a surprisingly premium-feeling adventure in the series that hits all the right notes, even if its endgame starts to depend on microtransactions too heavily."
One of the game's first critics, a Diablo fan in attendance during Diablo Immortal's unveiling at BlizzCon 2018 who asked the game's developers if it was an out-of-season April Fool's Day joke during a Q&A, recently chimed in with his opinion on Blizzard's mobile RPG. Blizzard will detail its content release cadence and discuss more about the game's next battle pass, upcoming features, and planned fixes around that time, Fletcher writes.įletcher also took the time to reiterate that content updates for Diablo Immortal, including new dungeons, raids, quests, and classes, will be free "for everyone to experience."ĭiablo Immortal made around $24 million in its first two weeks, even as the game has found itself in hot water over its microtransactions and pay-to-win systems. According to Fletcher, news about what's next for Diablo Immortal will be coming "in the next few weeks as we get to the tail end of the current battle pass," which expires in around two weeks.
