Diablo Immortal – Blizzard’s free-to-play take on its long-running dungeon crawler series – has started its global roll-out, and is now available to download on iOS and Android devices in certain territories.
First announced at BlizzCon in 2018 – where it was less than warmly received by attendees – Diablo Immortal takes place between the events of Diablo 2 and 3, adapting the classic dungeon crawling formula of its predecessors for mobile devices – which, among other things, means a free-to-play monetisation model based around in-app purchases.
Starting out in the city of Westmarch, players can adopt one of six classes – Barbarian, Wizard, Monk, Crusader, Necromancer, or Demon Hunter – and journey out to explore eight areas along with other adventurers. Blizzard and co-developer NetEase have previously said additional zones, storylines, loot, and classes will be added over time.
