Blizzard Address Diablo Rumors Ahead Of BlizzCon 2018

BlizzCon 2018 is coming up and this year it seems that we might be getting more Diablo-related announcements compared to the previous year. Blizzard had previously confirmed that they had multiple Diablo projects in the works which we imagine we will hear about at the event, and recent speculation has even suggested that we might hear about Diablo 4.

Unfortunately it seems that Diablo 4 might not be announced at BlizzCon, or at least that’s what Blizzard is hinting at. The company has recently penned a blog post in which they appear to be trying to temper expectations of the upcoming event. While they do not come outright and deny it, they certainly seem to hint that Diablo 4 will be a no-show at the event.

According to Blizzard, “These are very exciting times—we currently have multiple teams working on different Diablo projects and we can’t wait to tell you all about them . . . when the time is right. We know what many of you are hoping for and we can only say that ‘good things come to those who wait,’ but evil things often take longer. We appreciate your patience as our teams work tirelessly to create nightmarish experiences worthy of the Lord of Terror.”

As to what will be unveiled is still unclear, but we imagine that Blizzard might want to talk more about Diablo 3 on the Nintendo Switch. There have also been rumors about a Diablo animated series launching on Netflix so maybe we’ll learn more about it then. Either way try not to get your hopes up just yet but we should have more details in the coming weeks.
