Diablo 4's current game director, Joe Shely, replaced Luis Barriaga, who departed Blizzard after California filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against the company. This is also the second time this year that unofficial Diablo 4 footage has emerged, though the last time it focused on character creation and difficulty settings. ![]() This leak emerged just a day after footage and screenshots from GTA 6 also leaked. It's larger and more open than previous Diablo worlds, though fear not, as there are still plenty of dungeons. While the leak shows off expected Diablo fare, it also reveals a mind-bogglingly large world map, which is uncovered as the player explores. Some NPCs are also voice-acted with text-to-speech programs. Parts of the game appear under construction, such as untextured objects. After last weeks blog post announcing a laundry list of updates and tweaks to Diablo 4 following back-to-back weekends of open betas, today Blizzard. The footage is heavily watermarked, indicating its status as a test build. Speaking on their livesteam today, Diablo 4's developers said that the 'server slam,' which is meant to put the team's servers to the test ahead of what they hope will be a steady launch day for. Now Playing: Diablo 4 - Official Xbox Gameplay Showcase Diablo 4’s game director Luis Barriga answered this head-on in the June 2020 quarterly update saying, “We find that the game stops feeling like Diablo and the world feels less dangerous when you see other players too often or in too high numbers.By clicking 'enter', you agree to GameSpot's You can't play Diablo 4 offline and you are in a shared world with other players, and yet, the game is not a true MMO. The Drowned, for example, features five distinct archetypes: “bruiser, ranged combat, melee combat, swarmer, and dungeon boss.” Obviously, each of these will require players to utilize varying strategies of their own to contend with the different methods of attack, so identifying which monster family is attacking you isn’t enough to determine how to respond. Other families have a wider variety of attacks. The Cannibal family is entirely melee-based, featuring “supernatural swiftness” and they will “close the gap by leaping over obstacles and would-be competitors,” which should make for some extremely fast-paced and close-quarters battles. ![]() ![]() The rogue in Diablo 4 will be able to take on the ranged attack focus of the original, but different build options will be possible that push it more towards the Assasin class of Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction or the Demon Hunter of Diablo 3. ![]() Rogue makes an even more distant return from the dead, missing since the very first Diablo game. The druid will also have the ability to summon two wolves to assist in combat. He is a shape-shifter that can transform into a bear and wolf form depending on whether speed or power is the answer to the current battle. We also have the triumphant return of the druid, a fan favorite from the Diablo 2 expansion that was missing from Diablo 3. When cornered by enemies, she can transform herself into a ball of lightning, making herself temporarily invincible and dealing area of effect damage in her immediate vicinity. Sorceress naturally gravitates to more ranged attacks with a variety of magic to hurl at enemies, including ice bolts, fireballs and lighting.
