Diablo III Won’t Be Getting Microtransactions in the West

By Alex Osborn

While it appears microtransactions will be coming to Diablo III in some territories, Blizzard has assured gamers that there are no plans to bring this payment model to those in North America or Europe. 

"We recognize that many players have expressed an interest in microtransactions being added to Diablo III," community manager Brandy Camel explained. "While we may explore this model in some regions, we have no immediate plans to implement such purchases anytime soon for the European region."

It appears the addition of microtransactions is being specifically targeted at Asian markets.

Are you still invested in Diablo III or have you moved on to other gaming pursuits?
