There is also a new Helliquary feature, which has players hunting down powerful bosses. Players can also fight through the Caverns of Echoes dungeon. Players can also fight in the Battleground, which pits two teams of eight against each other.īlizzard is also opening up access to two new zones: the snowy Frozen Tundra and Mount Zavain (which is, you know, a mountain).

The game’s strongest players will be in the Immortals faction, but others can become Shadows and try to become the new Immortals by beating them. The test will let players try several new features, such as the game’s PvP system. The closed alpha has a level cap at 55, which is just short of the level 60 cap that the full game will have. We know that one other class, Necromancer, will be playable in the final game. This closed alpha is adding the Crusader as a playable class along with Barbarian, Demon Hunter, Monk, and Wizard, which were playable in the technical alpha. Blizzard is simply saying that '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.' Still, its developers are promising post-launch support.Immortal had a technical alpha that started in December. If you are more interested in Diablo 4, you can watch its reveal and gameplay trailers or see a plethora of concept art and screenshots that were released for it.Įven though NetEase's CEO said that Diablo Immortal was 'pretty much ready' to release all the way back in March, today's appearance at BlizzCon did not bring any release news with it. A new post on Blizzard's website also delves more into what makes the game stand out and where exactly it takes place in Diablo's timeline. If you want to learn more about how the game plays, you should check out DualShockers' preview from last year.

It was definitely announced at the wrong time though, so it makes sense that Blizzard would end up relegating discussion on the title to after their opening ceremony. While there is a negative stigma around Diablo Immortal and Blizzard in general nowadays, I actually think this game looks pretty good for a mobile adaptation of the classic ARPG series. Most notably, this trailer reveals the new zones of Wortham, Dark Wood, Tamoe Mountain and Ashwold Cemetary, the new crossbow-wielding Demon Hunter class and the fact that players have ultimate abilities that can be used to take out hordes of enemies. In it, we see how the game has evolved over its last year of development and new classes, moves, costumes, and items are unveiled.
