Blizzard has insisted Diablo 4 still has “bright support” as the community debates the shock news that no more expansions will be released for the game and with Diablo 5 looming over the horizon.
At BlizzCon 2026 Opening Ceremony, Blizzard announced Diablo 5 for 2029. It’s due out six years after Diablo 4, and promises more classes than any Diablo game has had before. (If you need a catch-up, here’s everything announced at BlizzCon 2026 Opening Ceremony.)
But what does all this mean for Diablo 4? In an interview with PC Gamer, Diablo 4 game director Brent Gibson said Blizzard is now focused on releasing seasons for Diablo 4 and “getting to Diablo 5.”
“We feel like we told the Story of Hatred,” he added. “We had a great conclusion with Lord of Hatred with what we have with Mephisto, and we are moving towards telling the Story of Terror.” That’s a reference to Diablo 5, which sees Diablo himself ruling over a post-apocalyptic Sanctuary.
Some Diablo 4 players have reacted to the news with anger, particularly the lack of any new expansions. Players are pointing out that former Diablo 4 boss, Rod Fergusson, mentioned “annual expansions” for the action
