Blizzard Has Already Shown ‘Diablo 4’ to Employees?
Blizzard Entertainment is still trying to get fans on board with their upcoming mobile game, Diablo: Immortal. That doesn’t mean that the company hasn’t been at work on Diablo 4. Rumours state that the devs even cancelled another StarCraft shooter in order to focus on its development. And now you can add another rumour to the pile.
According to French newspaper Le Monde, in which the article talks about the recent job cuts made by Blizzard (not to mention the issues with crunch), Blizzard has shown Diablo 4 to employees in Paris.
“Teams at Blizzard Entertainment have already been presented with the long-awaited Diablo 4 and know that a new Overwatch game is in development,” states the translated article, which goes on to state that “neither of these two games will be released before 2020, at the very best, and employees at Versailles have no idea if they will still be around when they eventually release.”
Diablo 4 has been in development for quite some time, and according to rumours, has gone through several versions.
Again, take this with your usual pile of salt, but it appears that this year’s BlizzCon will potentially have Diablo as the focus.

Wired Productions to Publish Psychological Horror Title ‘KARMA: The Dark World’ [Trailer]
Publisher Gamera Games and developer Pollard Studio have teamed with Wired Productions (the folks who brought us Martha is Dead) to release the psychological horror game KARMA: The Dark World. The game, which has been in development since 2021, is currently slated for a release on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series. No release date has been announced.
In a press release, Wired Productions managing director Leo Zullo stated that they saw something special with KARMA: The Dark World. “It evokes, emotions and provokes players to think, feel and question everything. Pollard Studio wanted to create an intense cinematic experience, and I’m delighted we’re able to work so closely with them. It’s truly an exciting game that I can’t wait to reveal more about.”
Described as a first-person cinematic psychological thriller set in a dystopian world, KARMA: The Dark World takes place in East Germany, 1984. Players take on the role of Daniel McGovern, a Roam Agent for the omnipresent Leviathan Corporation’s Thought Bureau. You have been brought in to investigate actions that have happened in a very specific moment in time. To do so, Daniel infiltrates the memories of suspects to retrace their steps and piece together his investigations. In doing so, Daniel uncovers fragmented memories of his own lurking within the shadows.
As a Roam investigation officer, you work at night, completing the tasks given by the corporation in complete stealth. Your identity as a Roam Agent is intimidating, giving you leverage to gain entry. Using a combination of investigative tools and their own intellect, players must solve puzzles in order to unravel the truth. Diving into peoples’ minds will have you encountering hallucinations and randomly-changing environments. You have to pay attention to the time and space of your location, as well as observe and spot key personnel and events in order to find your way.
