Diablo Immortal was much-maligned by a number of fans when it was first revealed all the way back at BlizzCon in 2018. This mobile, free-to-play take on the Diablo series was originally seen as something that was preventing Blizzard from working on a proper Diablo 4, which led to a backlash of sorts from longtime fans. And while those inferences were quickly put to rest when Diablo 4 was properly revealed a year later, the perception surrounding Immortal never really changed as a result. Despite this, after having now played a bit of Diablo Immortal during its recent closed beta phase, the game seems to be shaping up nicely and is something that many current Diablo fans should find enjoyment in. Better yet, it should help bridge the gap nicely to the release of Diablo 4 further down the road.
In a very broad sense, the closed beta of Diablo Immortal sold me on the general experience…
