Despite only officially being available to play for a day, Blizzard is already hard at work on Diablo IV expansions, with the company recently confirming that two are in the works.
What did Blizzard say about Diablo 4 Expansions?
Speaking to Kinda Funny during a recent appearance, Diablo general manager Rod Fergusson spoke about what type of future Diablo 4 will have. Namely, he mentioned that a handful of Diablo 4 expansions were already in the works, revealing that due to the live service nature of Diablo 4, the development team had to work on being sustainable and working on a variety of things.
“So you have to build your team and your structure around a way you can do that sustainably, because you’re kind of always shipping in a way,” said Fergusson (via PC Gamer). “As I sit here we’re about to launch the main game, we’re finishing up season one, we’re working on season two, we’re working on expansion one, we’re kicking off expansion two . . . we’re working on that now [laughs] and we haven’t even launched the game.”
Diablo 4 officially released on June 5, 2023, and has been generally praised by critics. Currently, the game sits at an 87 average score on review aggregating site Metacritic, and has been praised for its storytelling, atmosphere, and level design.
