However, players are mostly sure that the actual reason is this and not what the statement says. In its official statement, NetEase has said that the delay is to work on some game optimization and providing support for a wider range of devices. Weibo post from the official Diablo Immortal account saying, “why isn’t (Winnie) the bear going out of office yet?” As a result, the account could not post on the platform anymore, so the delay could be due to this. The official Weibo account of Diablo Immortal criticized Xi Jinping, President of the People’s Republic of China. Some players think that the reason for the delay is actually the ban itself. The platform gave us no official reason for this ban, so all of this is pretty mysterious. Weibo is a Chinese blogging website and the game’s official account is forbidden from posting anything there, as of last Wednesday. NetEase delayed Diablo Immortals’ release in China after the game’s official Weibo account got banned from posting. All of this comes as a big shock, as the game was only 3 days away from its official release in the country. However, a recent event may become a hurdle in Diablo Immortal‘s success.ĭiablo Immortal will not release in China for at least a few more weeks, after an official statement from NetEase confirming this rumor (thanks, Reuters). In spite of this mechanic, the free-to-play game has been doing well as it has made $24 million from microtransactions. The new MMO from Blizzard has a progression system that focuses heavily on real-life money.

Since then, the game has been at the center of attention due to its controversial microtransactions. Diablo Immortal came out just 2 weeks ago on mobile and PC. Recently, we saw the release of the latest game from the Diablo franchise.

The series has sold more than 40 million copies worldwide and continues to do well.

It’s a huge phenomenon among the players due to its lore and a very interesting setting in the world of Sanctuary. Diablo is one of the most popular Blizzard IPs in the gaming world.
