Diablo Immortal microtransactions “never circumvent core gameplay”
While it appears that Diablo Immortal microtransactions will prevent the game from being sold in Belgium and the Netherlands, the developers are adamant that these in-game purchases in the upcoming free-to-play game are entirely optional, and that they "never circumvent core gameplay". "A lot of conversation went into our philosophy around it, like the optional purchases are always a bonus, they never circumvent core gameplay," principal designer Joe Grubb tells us.02 Jan 2024Ring in the New Year with Feature UpdatesOfficial ︎12 Dec 2023Diablo Immortal’s Spintered Souls update lets players summon helpful (and horrifying) familiarsMassivelyOp ︎12 Dec 2023Repel Demonic Defilement in Splintered SoulsOfficial ︎06 Dec 2023Diablo Immortal’s Splintered Souls update promises new maps, quests, and familiarsMassivelyOp ︎06 Dec 2023Splintered Souls Converge in the Southern DreadlandsOfficial ︎01 Dec 2023It’s raining blood in Diablo IV — and pay-to-win rebuttalsMassivelyOp ︎21 Nov 2023Diablo Immortal ushers in Season 20 and teases ‘something familiar’ coming to the MMOMassivelyOp ︎20 Nov 2023Unleash Savagery with the Season 20 Battle PassOfficial ︎09 Nov 2023Diablo Immortal readies the Harvest Bounty event, Hearthstone sets the table for Showdown in the BadlandsMassivelyOp ︎06 Nov 2023Gobble Up Rewards from the Harvest Bounty Holiday EventOfficial ︎03 Nov 2023BlizzCon 2023: WoW, Diablo IV, Overwatch 2, and more at the Opening CeremonyMassivelyOp ︎28 Oct 2023BlizzCon’s schedule highlights World of Warcraft but ditches Q&AsMassivelyOp ︎23 Oct 2023Spawn Gruesome Destruction with the Season 19 Battle PassOfficial ︎19 Oct 2023Diablo Immortal’s Hallow’s Wake event brings cosmetics and costumes from now until November 2MassivelyOp ︎10 Oct 2023Diablo Immortal brings Hallow’s Wake event October 18, Diablo IV primes players for Season of BloodMassivelyOp ︎09 Oct 2023Survive Sinister Haunts in Hallow’s WakeOfficial ︎19 Sep 2023Witness the Dark Rebirth in Tristram CathedralOfficial ︎30 Aug 2023Diablo 4 has only made Diablo Immortal more popular, say BlizzardRPS ︎09 Aug 2023Diablo Immortal launches a PvP event, temporarily changes gem drop rates, and makes its PC releaseMassivelyOp ︎07 Aug 2023Fight to the End in the Wild BrawlOfficial ︎25 Jul 2023Diablo Immortal’s 16th season includes China-only content and battleground leeching penaltiesMassivelyOp ︎24 Jul 2023Embrace the Howling Terror’s Deadly Mystique in the Season 16 Battle PassOfficial ︎19 Jul 2023Activision-Blizzard Q2 2023: Diablo IV doubled Blizzard’s revenues as MAUs continue declineMassivelyOp ︎17 Jul 2023Diablo Immortal unleashes the Blood Knight class along with a special event and elite questMassivelyOp ︎14 Jul 2023Everyone's least favourite Diablo game gets the series' first new class in nearly a decadeRPS ︎11 Jul 2023Skewer Your Way through the Crimson Plane as the Blood KnightOfficial ︎07 Jul 2023Diablo Immortal unveils the new Blood Knight class arriving on July 13MassivelyOp ︎07 Jul 2023Introducing the Newest Diablo Immortal Class: Blood KnightOfficial ︎06 Jul 2023Best Diablo Immortal Blood Knight buildsPCGamesN ︎06 Jul 2023The Diablo Immortal Blood Knight isn’t like WoW’s, and that’s perfectPCGamesN ︎26 Jun 2023Emerge Victorious in the Trial of the HordesOfficial ︎19 Jun 2023Diablo 4 may have actually made more money in a week than Diablo Immortal did in a yearVG247 ︎19 Jun 2023Diablo 4 makes more in five days than Immortal has in a yearPCGamesN ︎15 Jun 2023Diablo Immortal brings a new zone, Inferno difficulty, hearthrot demons, and combat stances todayMassivelyOp ︎14 Jun 2023Diablo Immortal’s anniversary update adds a sequel’s worth of upgradesPCGamesN ︎
