The thirtieth anniversary for Diablo means all types of cool announcements–like the latest Warlock class on the way in which for a number of games–but thus far, Switch 2 is not part of the celebration. Eurogamer determined to ask developer Blizzard about Diablo IV coming to Nintendo’s new system or perhaps a Switch 2 improve for Diablo II: Resurrected. A spokesperson responded that that they had nothing to touch upon about these subjects.
Earlier this week, Blizzard revealed main updates for Diablo IV and Diablo II: Resurrected. The previous is receiving the Lord of Hatred growth in April, whereas the latter simply obtained the Reign of the Warlock DLC (which is available on Switch).
The dungeon-crawler franchise first arrived on a Nintendo platform with Diablo 3: Everlasting Assortment on Switch in 2018. In actual fact, the sport even obtained The Legend of Zelda crossover objects, corresponding to a Triforce portrait. This was adopted by Blizzard bringing Diablo II: Resurrected to Switch in 2021, so there’s precedent for the sequence on Nintendo’s residence console.
