Players will also have the opportunity to ask our developers questions during a live Q&A session at the end of the livestream.įollowing the conclusion of this hell-packed livestream, we’ll publish another article containing a video on demand so you can catch all the invitingly dark details at your own pace. Then our host, associate director of community Adam Fletcher, will introduce associate game director Joseph Piepiora and lead game producer Timothy Ismay who will announce the first Season of Diablo IV, along with incoming quality-of-life updates.

Activision said that after the launch of Diablo 4, Diablo Immortal's net bookings reached their highest level since January.Multiple planes of Hell will converge in our upcoming Diablo Developer Update Livestream on July 6 at 11 a.m. Interestingly, the success of Diablo 4 also appears to have had a positive impact on Diablo Immortal, the free-to-play mobile and PC game we got last year that was summarily rejected by longtime fans when it was announced in 2018. In spite of all of that, though, Diablo 4 is-at least at this relatively early point-the biggest thing that Blizzard has ever done. The blowback was sudden and strong enough to prompt Blizzard to announce a ' Fireside Chat'-a developer stream, in other words-'to talk about it' on July 21. The prospect of Diablo 4's first season doesn't seem to be improving anyone's mood: A big pre-season update that arrived yesterday seems mainly to have unified the player base in unhappiness.
