It was always unlikely that Diablo Immortal would totally bomb, and even less so when it became clear the actual gameplay is…really quite fun. But it can be hard to parse what could be semantics from Blizzard, as Immortal’s game director Wyatt Cheng now famously said the game would not and does not sell “gear,” because the extremely powerful legendary gems with all the stats and abilities of gear are not technically “gear.” So who knows what loopholes could open up for Diablo 4.


Blizzard has already committed to the notion that Diablo 4 will not have the same kinds of microtransactions as Immortal, and will only have cosmetics.
