The Diablo series has reached 100 million players. The announcement was made by Blizzard via its social channels, where it published a celebratory artwork that shows the journey made so far.
The accompanying text is actually very brief and no more precise data is provided. It simply says: “From Diablo I to Diablo IV more than 100 million players have joined together to fight against hell. Sanctuary thanks you.” That’s all. It is not stated which episode was the most successful and, for the last chapters, it is not explained on which platforms they have had the most success, even if we imagine that PC is in the lead, considering that we are talking about a series born and raised on this platform.
The Diablo series
The image of his shows the artwork taken from the various episodeswhich fans will surely recognize, given that these are some of the most representative villains ever.
The Diablo series made its debut in 1996 with the first chapter. It was an immediate success, thanks to its simpler mechanics than other role-playing games and its focus on combat. The formula proved to be truly successful, so much so that it gave rise to a sub-genre, that of action role-playing games. In 2000, Diablo II was published, probably the most appreciated chapter of the series, which had a remastered edition in 2021: Diablo II: Resurrected. Diablo III was instead published in 2012, sparking quite a few controversies for its monetization system, so much so that Blizzard had to retrace its steps by heavily modifying it. Finally, Diablo IV dates back to 2023 and has sparked mixed reactions, between those who consider it the best chapter of the series and those who consider it the worst.
