One of those sources told me that the Diablo team wasn’t yet ready to commit to an announcement, as Diablo 4 has changed drastically over the past four years and may continue to change further. We can confirm that Diablo 4 is indeed in development. We had originally reported that it was planned for BlizzCon, but it’s possible that those plans were simply discussed and never solidified. However, two people familiar with Blizzard’s plans confirmed that the company had indeed recorded a video in which co-founder Allen Adham spoke to fans about a new Diablo project. We do continue to have different teams working on multiple unannounced Diablo projects, and we look forward to announcing when the time is right.” We generally don’t comment on rumors or speculation, but we can say that we didn’t pull any announcements from BlizzCon this year or have plans for other announcements. “First off we want to mention that we definitely hear our community. Although we can confirm that the video was made, Blizzard disputes that it was planned for BlizzCon. With the way Barriga is talking, it's possible we won't see the game launch until 2021 or even beyond.UPDATE: This article originally stated that Blizzard had recorded a video, planned for BlizzCon, in which co-founder Allen Adham talked about a new Diablo game. Throughout its various Diablo panels this weekend, Blizzard kept reiterating the notion that Diablo 4 is still in the early days of development, which is something that may not have been obvious to BlizzCon attendees since they had the opportunity to play through a demo of the game. "Blizzard soon," is a reference to Blizzard's famously long development process, with the company often saying that new games or features are arriving "soon," when in reality they could still be months or years out. "We're not coming out soon – not even Blizzard soon," he continued. "A game of this scope takes time," Barriga said during the show, as reported by PCGamesN. Diablo 4 game director Luis Barriga painted a picture of an even longer wait during BlizzCon, noting that it's going to take Blizzard time to build out the breadth it wants to see in Diablo 4. We didn't get a release date for Diablo 4 at BlizzCon, which itself suggests that it's more than a year out from release.
