Btw, an indication about whether something big for D3 is coming (DLC/expansion) could be the release date of the Switch version. Atm we know it's scheduled for Fall 2018, but when we think from a marketing perspective the Blizzcon date is crucial here:
1) If there are no new things for D3 to be announced at Blizzcon, the Switch port will sell better if released before Blizzcon
2) If there is something new for D3, they better release the Switch game after the D3 hype at Blizzcon making even more sales
So, based on the above video where they basically say "D4 is an aRPG and it's great", based on the many hints about D2 HD and now if they don't announce an exact date for Switch at PAX West next week, we may very well have the BEST BLIZZCON ever created for the Diablo fans with Diablo opening the ceremony, a D4 reveal, D2 HD announce and D3 DLC gameplay.
HYPEEEEEE!!!
I definitely share your excitement but IMO there will no more addons to D3 and switch port is a last step in life cycle of it. Anyway after everything that happened recently there is more and more hope for D4 announcement. *Whispers* Let it be solo oriented Lost Ark - like MMOARPG And my dreams will come true.
Ok, this is 100% D2 HD then since they showed the runes:
14:30 – Heroes of the Storm
15:45 – Diablo
They announce Mephisto for HotS and close the ceremony with the D2 HD announce right after that. Good news!
The rune in the bottom has to be a new rune which will be added to the game.
I was almost sure that they will announce smth. Most likely D2HD now and D4 at Blizzzcon. Too much coincidences: mysteious Mepthisto project, Mephisto leak for HotS, and finally untitled 1 hour lenght diablo panel. Looks like they prepared smth for us. But today my hopes was crashed and devastated coz official schedule has arrived: https://gamescom.blizzard.com/en-gb/calendar/events
And there is 3 hours of painting.... I mean COME ON.
Reading the comments I think its time to clearify some things here. I've been following Diablo news (especially D3) since...forever? There are some details you might have missed the last few weeks and days.
Diablo 3 has been moved to classic games on the Bnet site, and all the previous job postings for the new unannounced Diablo project have been removed from the site. Just one job posting popping up, for the Diablo franchise in general, with C++ knowledge, and at this point speculations have gone wild as D3 may very well be in maintenance mode for good. So a new class or even an new Expansion for D3 is very unlikely at this point. It could be, but I am not betting on it anymore, since the game got moved to classics on the site. This means, in my personal opinion, that the game is done, seasons will go with the newly announced themed seasons for as long as it takes and new content will probably be just some bugfixes and patches throughout D3's lifespan that is.
What is coming next then?
Well D4 is innevitable. A Diablo 3 Eternal Collection Port for the Nintendo Switch may be a realtity too. A mobile game in the Diabloverse is likely too.
If you look all the job postings and all the news that have been online since there was the first job posting in 2015 for an unannounced Diablo Project, you may be understanding my suggestions.
If D4 will come in the next 1-2 years, it will unite MMO elements such as Lost Ark or similar games, with Microtransactions for cosmetics, stash, pets and so on, the playstyle I believe would be very similar as that what we know today, but there will be improvs to this. (See Wolcen)
They will probably going the Road that PoE has it going maybe...
Thanks, and have a nice day.
Bullshits. D4 dont exist , Blizzard will never rek D3. New classes +Xpansion thats what we will get ahead.
D4 will be announced until 2020 very likely this year with release date around 2020 if nothing extraordinary happens like nuclear war or smth.
Yes and Donald Duck will visit you in 2022 LOL. You are fking joking lol. The druid class is coming soon and we will get a new expansion , D4 dont exist you genius.
