Blizzard Moves Toward Console Launch, 5 Reasons It Won’t WorkBlizzard Moves Toward Console Launch, 5 Reasons It Won’t Work

 

Fans are anticipating the newest addition to the “Diablo” series, which is set to be released on May 15 for PCs. However, there was one detail missing from the launch announcement earlier in March. Gamers were expecting the adventure RPG to come to consoles, but there was no mention of an Xbox or PlayStation debut.

But that could change very soon, according to a report from ComputerAndVideoGames.com. COO Paul Sams told the website that Blizzard is pursuing a console edition of the 16-year-old game.

“We’re continuing to explore [Diablo 3 on consoles],” he said to the website. “We think that the way we built it for the PC may need some tweaking, but it will ultimately be the type of game that can really make sense and be really fun, well-polished and a true Blizzard-level experience on a console.”

One of the primary reasons “Diablo” stuck with its PC origins is to emphasize the main priority at hand.
