While it is not a mobile phone exclusive (there is a PC version as well), it is mainly seen as a mobile title. Diablo Immortal has now arrived on the App Store and Google Play. "Don't you guys have phones" became a meme that was used by many to poke fun at Blizzard.įour years down the line, the star of that gaming horror show has made its way to mobile phones.
The thought that a new game in a classic PC series like Diablo would be released on mobile was an anathema to many hardcore gamers. After all, this was 2018, and mobile gaming was still considered to be the poor cousin of "real" gaming that took place on PCs and consoles. When the company announced that it was instead going to be releasing Diablo on mobile phones, the backlash was intensely abrasive. Almost all fans had assumed that this meant that the company would be launching the next instalment in the series, tentatively titled Diablo 4. Blizzard had said that it would be releasing information about its legendary role-playing game series Diablo at the event.

Blizzard designer Wyatt Cheng asked in surprise when his announcement that the game would be available only on Android and iOS devices and not on the PC was greeted by loud boos. Perhaps no title in gaming history has had as hostile a reception as Diablo Immortal did, with fans and gamers lashing out at Blizzard for developing a "mere" mobile game rather than a full-fledged one for PCs or consoles. That was the query of a fan when Blizzard announced Diablo Immortal at BlizzCon in March 2018. "Is this an out-of-season April Fool's joke?"
