Yesterday Blizzard left us almost falling out of the chair when announcing Diablo 4 with several videos and the one who is going to be a great one in gaming for Android: Immortal Diablo. In a video of more than 3 minutes, it shows the gameplay of what no one expected, a whole «Devil» with multiplayer and a technical level simply fable.
Since Diablo Immortal was announced, and more so because of who was developing it for its mobile version, doubts arose because it was a quick attempt at what the Diablo saga has been. But nothing, in those minutes of video Blizzard has amazed fans of the series so much for years, even the most staunch, as the newest who will meet Sanctuary for the first time. A whole new era for mobile gaming is approaching; and let Fortnite and PUBG Mobile shake.
Blizzard reveals Diablo Immortal story, classes and gameplay
Recognizing the one who writes these lines that a little less than 20 years ago we already played at home locally to Diablo 2, the interest in this saga is more than evident. And more so when Diablo 3 was a break with Diablo 2 and its randomly generated dungeons and that visual aspect more "dark" or darker than a Diablo 3 more to the "WoW" (World of Warcraft, also Blizzard's mmo). So seeing how that gameplay unfolds and those graphics that do nothing more than excite us, it is great news yesterday at BlizzCon 2019.
Before going into detail about some of the most striking gameplay highlights of the video published by Blizzard for Diablo Immortal, we emphasize those data that it has revealed about this mobile game. One of the main differences that we are going to see in Diablo Immortal With respect to the previous Diablo titles, it is the MMO style; And that is also where the shots go with Diablo 4.
Blizzard has highlighted that Diablo Immortal will be based on a player, but that there will be multiplayer features that include persistent shared zones, 4 player 'instantiated' dungeons, support to clans, social systems that we can see in other games, and much more.
Six playable classes and "Ultimate Skills"
If we knew of the existence in Immortal Diablo of three classes, such as the Barbarian, the Monk and the Wizard, there are three more announced yesterday at BlizzCon, the Crusader, the Demon Hunter and the Necromancer; six classes that we have in Diablo 3 for those who play this Blizzard ARPG.
Characters in Diablo Immortal will have the «Ultimate Skills» available and that will increase your basic attacks with powerful upgrades when deployed. There will also be legendary items available to alter abilities of all forms and varieties of destruction that we know from the Diablo games. In other words, we can integrate a Fireball into a frozen Orb, or even convert the arrows of the Demon Hunter into grenades by using the Strafe ability.
Finally, Blizzard has made it clear that its plan is provide ongoing support and post regular content updates after the release of Diablo Immortal, which would include new areas, stories, dungeons, bosses, and new classes. And on micro-transactions he makes it very clear: "we will take the time to do it the right way."
More eager than ever
After the sour taste in our mouths left by Diablo Inmortal on the day of its announcement just a year ago, the announcement yesterday at Blizzcon with that video of less than 3 minutes has left us very surprised. Especially for perceive that aroma of what the saga has always been, although with a little more visuals pulling what Diablo 3 is, and with the feeling that Blizzard is putting everything it has to put to land on mobile gaming as it did at the time with its Diablo, its Starcraft 2 or with World of Warcraft, games that have marked history in this world and that placed it as one of the best companies of all time.
From the video we get, that the map is not going to be anything small and that we really wanted this to be the case playing from a mobile (there are hardly any games like Diablo that allow you to explore dungeons for more than 3 or 5 minutes); that the graphics are simply spectacular and at a level that will make those high-end phones dazzle the day it is launched, and that by the way it looks like it will take longer than we would like; that we are going to be in combat with a large number of skeletons, zombies and more monsters on the screen; and it is very clear that we are going to need a good mobile to enjoy the experience of exploring the Sanctuary from there.
You have the previous registration in the Play Store and the web devilinmortal.com for follow all the news of Diablo Immortal, although we will bring them to you with all the enthusiasm and sympathy for what seems to be one of the games of the next few years. All the desire to know more and to know the day of its launch. A big one awaits us.
