“Your character at the beginning of the story is seeking out these Worldstones to stop them from falling into the hands of demons.” Players will meet familiar characters like Cain and slowly run into things from Diablo III as the game progresses.įor them, there was an unexplored place between Diablo II and Diablo III that allows them to have their own sandbox to create new characters and tell a completely different story without disrupting or overlapping the narrative in Diablo III and its sequel.

The narrative of Diablo Immortal will take off right after the end of Diablo II after The Worldstone was shattered. In an interview with Lead Producer, Caleb Arseneaux and Senior System Designer, Kris Zierhut, both mentioned that they had to separate themselves from Diablo III with everything new from the story, to design choices and the end game.

With Diablo Immortal shaping up to become a complete Massive Multiplayer Online Action Role Playing Game (MMOARPG), the game is committed to telling a brand new story and feature many new things while retaining the predecessor’s formula.

It is crucial to fans that Diablo Immortal had a story to tell, a soul gripping one. Especially notable for the first two games of the franchise, Diablo was often renown for its horror grandeur and the dark setting of its universe. The lore behind Diablo is a compelling narrative that has been built throughout many years from books, comics, and of course, the games. However, during BlizzCon 2021, developers of the new mobile title had much to show during the game’s Technical Alpha and have given us plenty to look forward to with their first entry into mobile gaming. The announcement was a major disappointment to most fans and was infamous for one attendee asking the developers if it was an “out of season’s April Fools joke”. Players were skeptical as to why Blizzard decided to take Diablo into a mobile platform especially when they were largely anticipating the PC sequel. During its first announcement back in 2018, it was met with fierce lash back from the fans as many felt they needed the sequel to Diablo III instead of a mobile entry. One other prominent update was on the controversial mobile game Diablo Immortal. The two-day digital event BlizzCon 2021 has given Diablo fans plenty of new things to rejoice over like the announcement of Diablo II: Resurrected and the new Rogue class in the upcoming Diablo IV.
