Blizzard built Diablo Immortal PC “to make it for mobile”
The Diablo Immortal release time is imminent, the first new Diablo game to release in ten years - but it wasn't always going to be the case, as the Diablo Immortal PC release is a recent announcement. However, according to a new interview with Blizzard, the PC version was actually built first "to make it for mobile".
The Diablo mobile game was announced all the way back in 2015 to a less than enthusiastic response, mostly because everyone was waiting on the reveal of Diablo IV. With the Diablo Immortal release date on June 2 so close we can touch it, excitement is far higher - especially thanks to the same-time release of a Diablo Immortal PC beta too.
While the PC release wasn't initially on the cards, a new interview at Wowhead with Diablo franchise head Rod Fergusson reveals that the PC version always existed. "The mission of Diablo Immortal was to bring the Diablo experience to mobile," Fergusson explains but admits "we built it on PC in order to make it for mobile."
