Hopefully, this year will also bring a lot of exciting new announcements and content.ĭiablo 3 : Eternal Collection will release on November 2, 2018, for the Nintendo Switch.While we had originally hoped Nintendo's latest hardware could arrive in 2023, during the company's annual financial report president Shuntaro Furukawa confirmed there are no plans to release any hardware during the next fiscal year. Last year brought new content for both Overwatch and World of Warcraft, with the former receiving a new map and the healing character Moira, while the latter received the Battle For Azeroth expansion. It's been more than 6 years since the initial launch of Diablo 3, so the time is right for another entry in the franchise.īlizzCon is now just a few short months away, and fans of the company should expect a ton of news about their favorite games. The company reportedly has multiple Diablo projects in the works, and has been relatively silent about the series for the past few years, with the game being reduced to nothing more than a single small demo at last year's BlizzCon. The fact that Blizzard announced the Switch port this early is probably a good sign for the rest of the franchise. While fans' excitement level isn't quite where it would be if Diablo 4 were announced, at least it's another instance of the Switch bringing console-quality games to a portable audience, much like Bethesda did with The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim. The ability to play the game on the go with the Nintendo Switch should be great for anyone that frequently travels and doesn't have the ability to keep their PC strapped on their back. Regardless, the port is a godsend for Diablo fans everywhere.
