Diablo is getting a 'full-fledged' mobile RPG

Blizzard is bringing Diablo to mobile devices, the company announced today during BlizzCon 2018. The game's creators promised a "full-fledged action RPG" called Diablo Immortal. Diablo Immortal picks up after Diablo II: Lord of Destruction and will launch for iOS and Android.

The mobile RPG is a massively multiplayer online action game; players will be able to drop in and out of groups and play through "dynamic events" as they travel through Sanctuary. Classes include monk, wizard, crusader, demon hunter, necromancer, and barbarian. Blizzard is currently allowing players to pre-register for a chance to join the game's upcoming beta.

    Whoever made this bit of snark hit the nail on the head!
    Also, does the re-skinned Chinese game still have the state sponsored great firewall of China spyware in it? Or was that re-directed to Blizz? Slurping everything off the phone is a core feature of cell phone games, right?

    Apparently the Diablo-fans are less then pleased with what is known about the game so far.
