Diablo Immortal is delayed to 2022

Activision Blizzard has decided postponed the release of Diablo Immortal until the beginning of 2022.

This has been done for the simple reason that the developers need more time to make the game better after the response from the closed alpha and to make a second alpha test including the changes to the big 40 player PvP feature, Cycle of Strife.

"Following feedback provided by test participants of the Closed Alpha, our team has been tuning core and endgame features. For example, we’re iterating on PvP content like the Cycle of Strife to make it more accessible, alongside late-game PvE content like the Helliquary to make it more engaging. We’re also working to provide controller support for those who want to play our game in a different way. However, these changes and additional opportunities to improve our gameplay experience will not be realized in the 2021 timeframe we had previously communicated. So, the game is now planned for release in the first half of 2022, which will allow us to add substantial improvements to the whole game."
