According to anonymous sources for Kotaku, Blizzard had planned on officially announcing Diablo 4 at BlizzCon, but decided to pull the announcement at the last-minute.
According to two sources, the original plan was to announce Diablo Immortal and then end on a video in which company co-founder Allen Adham told the audience that a proper Diablo 4 was in development but not ready to show just yet.
What ultimately happened was just an announcement for a Diablo mobile game titled Diablo Immortal and was met with major backlash among Diablo fans with the official cinematic trailer having 16,000 likes and 431,000 dislikes.
