37 Comments

Diablo 4 was officially announced in 2019. However, and as Blizzard claimed, that Diablo game was nowhere close to completion. Not only that, but in February 2021, Blizzard revealed that the game would not be coming out in 2021. And, earlier today, Activision and Blizzard announced that both Diablo 4 and Overwatch 2 have been delayed, again.

This shouldn’t really surprise anyone as Diablo Immortal has also seen numerous delays. In August 2021, Blizzard announced that this mobile game would be missing its 2021 release date, and would be now targeting a 2022 release.

Diablo IV and Overwatch 2 still don’t have an estimated release date. Blizzard claims that this delay will give their teams enough time to further polish them. However, and after all those delays, things do not appear to look good. Not only that, but Blizzard’s co-leader, Jen Oneal, has left the company.

Let’s just hope that until then, Blizzard will sort out the issues that currently plague Diablo 2 Resurrected. According to reports, the game still has some network issues.

Stay tuned for more!

  2. Blizzards dying … yet more new studios for Call of Duty are getting added …
    Activision is butchering Blizzard, slowly and painfully

    2. I tell people this and they don’t want to believe it but Activision is making more profit from COD games than ever before. There are millions and millions of fans that buy the new COD game every year and Activision keeps posting record sales and profits. This didn’t just start with the Pandemic where people were quarantined and were desperate for gaming entertainment.

      1. you are literally right, they’re public company, their statement is up online but people prefer to whine instead of bothering themselves to read. crying is the comfort zone of many here and they do not want to get out of it.

        1. I think it’s because they want to see companies like Activision and EA get hurt financially for their business practices. They don’t want to hear about the billions of dollars in profits that these companies make with their business practices but it’s these very same business practices that make Activision and EA immensely successful. This is due to the average gamer and their tolerance for getting stepped on by the big companies. Until the majority of gamers vote with their wallets these companies will continue their practices.

          2. Not sure what you mean. According to EA’s Financials the revenue was about the same year over year. Profit was down somewhat but that could be for a number of reasons. A company like EA couldn’t care less what is said about them in forums. They only care about the money. Remember when they were voted Worst Company in America and were awarded the Golden Poo Trophy 2 years in a row? They were still raking in the cash.

            I don’t follow COD. Just what gets posted about sales in the news and I don’t see any reason why the next COD game won’t rake in hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue in the first few days on release but we will see.

          3. i mean multiple of their big tittles failed so now they make money from sports games and apex legends.

      1. thats not what i got out of this, i got that they made back their losses with wow but now they got issues with wow subs again.

        1. losses? are you blind or honestly this stupid? it says literally net earnings, meaning only their growth was slowed down by about 10 percent. also these statements are from 3 different years.
          I wanted to tell you to read the whole statement but now I’m 100 percent sure, you wouldn’t understand any of it because you’re actually dense.

    5. Not really, they’ve recovered since 2019 and doing better than they ever did in history of their company :

      they went into detail to explain why their net profit was lower than prior year in 2019 but since I don’t play their games, I didn’t quite understand it but what matters is now they’re doing better than they ever did.

      1. Did you play the Guardians of the Galaxy game? From what I have read, it is a very linear, narrative driven game just like Naughty Dog makes.

        2. I have seen like 6 hours of this game on youtube. Why? to see when the damn story picks up, its so boring. Its super linear and scripted it has awful combat with bulletspongy enemies, you get xp but not levels you earn unlock points to increase your abilities, pretty tacked on and the linear levels have some gaps in them where they hid resources for some other upgrades. Doesnt have any variety at all though its very simplistic. You have to order your teammates to open doors and climb stuff to progress. The dialogues are a endless millennial rant about how incompetent all the characters including themselves are.

          WHY DO PEOPLE LIKE THIS GAME?

          1. I think it is because it is basically a Marvel movie in the form of a game. The same people who like those formulaic movies, like this game for the same exact reasons.

      2. you want games to turn into mediocre movies?

        Anyway there is a game called unmetal its a parody of metal gear, there is another one called never stop sneaking.

  14. So they need more time to stupidify their games further, guess way to many gen-z “gamers” can’t handle more than 4 active skills at once ;=P

    Jokes aside – Considering the bleed of talent its not surprising they need more time, have to rebuild the company from scratch it seems…
