Diablo Immortal release is delayed yet again and we don’t really know why

Diablo Immortal release is delayed yet again, judging by Blizzard’s recent update. It’s no secret that Diablo Immortal has been turning lots of heads since its announcement, but not for the right reasons.

Back in November of last year, as fans waited eagerly for the announcement of a new Diablo game, Blizzard presented to the public which may be their worst received game to date: Diablo Immortal. The idea of a Diablo game on the go, as nice as it sounds for those who play in mobile, goes completely against the roots of the entire series and its core audience, so the angry fans had more than enough motives to be so.

Diablo Immortal’s announcement nefastous response.

If there’s something everyone’s willing to do, however, is giving the game a go… but they have no game.

Blizzard’s new update on the subject may have confirmed that the Diablo Immortal release is delayed until further notice. They do not have a concrete release date for now. And it seems like they are avoiding to talk about it. Here’s what they had to say on the matter:

Q: When will I be able to play Diablo Immortal?
A: 
We don’t have a release date to announce at this time. It takes significant time to meet the Blizzard quality level we’re aiming for, and we have a lot of ambitious goals for Diablo Immortal. […]

What now?

Back in March, NetEase (Diablo Immortal’s co-developer) stated that the game was already finished and ready to go. If Blizzard’s really taking the time to further polish the game and its story, we can only assume that Diablo Immortal was either announced too early or that NetEase didn’t really have a grasp of the game’s development when those claims were made.

Either way, Blizzard’s lack of clarity is already driving some players off, as some have been waiting for as long as the game became available to pre-register back in November of last year.

We can, however, take a look at the game in Blizzard’s latest development update video, in which we can at least appreciate some graphical improvement when compared to last year’s reveal.

Diablo Immortal as of today.

All we can do now is wait patiently for the game to be released. Let’s cross our fingers for it to be soon.
