CNBC Article Hints at New ‘Diablo’ Game?

Published

Yes, this is another one of those “take with a grain of salt” things, especially given that it’s Blizzard.

In what seems like a rather mundane article on CNBC that talks about Goldman Sachs raising its rating for Activision Blizzard shares, the article has a quote from an analyst to their clients that’s rather curious. “We are raising our 2019 and 2020 estimates [of Activision Blizzard shares] on account of a robust multi year pipeline of games — Diablo, Overwatch 2, and a Blizzard mobile title — which we don’t think [Wall Street] estimates are fully taking into account.”

Now, one could take this as an analyst not knowing what they’re talking about (as a sequel to Overwatch seems kind of weird, given the game came out last year and is still going strong), but the mention of Diablo raises a few eyebrows. It’s been rumoured that Blizzard is looking to remaster Diablo II after their remaster of Starcraft, and this can only fuel more fire for that one. However, it could also mean that Blizzard is getting ready to jump into a new Diablo game (which would explain the franchise’s absence at this past BlizzCon).

Whatever it is, there’s something going on that has the potential to make Diablo fans very happy in the next year.

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere can be seen trapped inside.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
