Diablo Immortal

Diablo Immortal and the rumored Pokemon Go-style Warcraft game were not Blizzard's first attempts at taking their biggest series to mobile platforms.

Earlier today Kotaku published a lengthy post breaking down everything from Diablo 4 to Pokemon Go for World of Warcraft -- from interviews from 16 Blizzard employees wishing to remain anonymous.

Despite them -- ahem -- "muted" reactions to Diablo Immortal, Blizzard expanding more into the mobile market is, undoubtedly, a smart business decision.

If you played Diablo 2 and its expansion, Lord of Destruction, then you saw the end of the established world order with the destruction of the Worldstone.

I'll be up front and admit I am not likely going to play Diablo Immortal.

Diablo Immortal isn't a copy or a re-release of a 2017 mobile ARPG as many of the game's detractors have theorized.

As far back as I can remember Blizzard has been known for their amazing cinematic trailers, and this year's BlizzCon was no exception.

This morning I’ve prepped three loads of laundry, cleared the entire sink worth of dishes, emptied two Halloween buckets full of wrappers — Halloween was less than a week ago — and I still have to write at least one more article about BlizzCon esports. I feel like I’ve aged five years in the past three days. Like Rip Van Winkle, I need to brush my hair and answer a whole lot of questions.

So, this is the queue. Let’s get to it.

While we usually have a World of Warcraft Q&A panel, a full-fledged Diablo Q&A panel is something new, and that means anything could happen over the next 45 minutes.
