Diablo Immortal launches in June, and it’s coming to PC

By DeAngelo Epps April 25, 2022

Diablo Immortal, which spawned the infamous “Do you guys not have phones?” moment, has been a contentious game for years due to its focus on mobile. Now, it seems that Blizzard is looking to turn that around, as today it announced that Diablo Immortal will not only launch on Android and iOS on June 2, but on PC in open beta as well.

On June 2, Hell is everywhere.

Diablo Immortal is an online-only, free-to-play massively multiplayer online RPG set between the events of Diablo 2 and 3. The title originally was revealed in 2018 for mobile platforms only, much to the disappointment of longtime series fans. It seems that Blizzard took notes from the mass reaction and decided to bring Immortal to PC. The PC version will feature crossplay with the mobile version.

Immortal‘s initial launch date was set for 2021. Development was brought to a halt in 2021 when Blizzard and its parent company, Activision, were hit by sexual harassment accusations from its employees, resulting in a boycott of the company’s products, a purchase of the companies by Microsoft, and multiple game delays.

Games like Overwatch 2, Diablo IV, and an upcoming mobile World of Warcraft game joined Diablo Immortal in being delayed. However, Blizzard seems to be getting back on track with Diablo Immortal’s June release, as well as Overwatch 2‘s upcoming closed PC beta.

Fans can journey into the MMORPG world of Diablo Immortal via Android, iOS, or PC on June 2. Note that the PC version is available through open beta, so expect that version to be a little less clean than the mobile experience at launch.

Best Diablo 4 Barbarian build: recommended skills, passives, and gear

A Barbarian in Diablo 4.

The Barbarian class is a fan-favorite in Diablo 4, and has been used to climb through the ranks of the game's Hardcore mode. While there are plenty of effective Barbarian classes in the game, one specific class stands tall above the rest. This is the best Barbarian class in Diablo 4.
Recommended build

The key to this class is to utilize Whirlwind to decimate every enemy you come into contact with. The skills for this build are all geared toward increasing your maximum damage output, defense, and resources -- allowing you to spend more time dishing out attacks and less time during cooldowns.

Diablo 4's Druid class is effective, allowing players to shapeshift and use magic to damage opponents from afar. It's an intimidating class to use, especially compared to some of the classics, but once you have the right build, the Druid can be devastating. It takes a little while to get it going, but once you master the art of this class, it's highly effective.

In this guide, we'll cover the very best Druid build in Diablo 4.

Best Diablo 4 Rogue builds: recommended skills, passives, and gear

A rogue looking determined.

Rogues are always an enticing class to play as in RPGs like Diablo 4. These characters have plenty of different tricks and options open to them, making them versatile, but always deadly, no matter what World Tier you're on. With so many options to pick from, such as melee or ranged, trap types, and different status effects, it can feel overwhelming when trying to figure out what is worth investing in to make a powerful Rogue. Rather than tinker endlessly with all the possible combinations of this class, we'll give you two powerful Rogue builds to make you more formidable in Diablo 4.
Rogue overview
Rogues are meant to be fast and deadly. They have very high damage-per-second (DPS) potential to make up for lower defense and HP, as well as numerous tricks like bombs and traps to keep themselves safe. This is one of the more active classes in Diablo 4, requiring you to manage your cooldowns and be more active during fights compared to more tanky classes. You'll need to be more precise playing a Rogue because many of their skills need to be targeted. However, thanks to some powerful synergies, mastering this class could make you one of the most powerful members of your team.
Ranged build

Unless you're absolutely certain you can take out an enemy before they can land any significant blows on you, a ranged Rogue build is the safest bet. Don't let that get you down, though, because Rogues are arguably even more deadly at a distance than up-close. Here's a strong range build to mop up enemies before they even have a chance to touch you. Feel free to use either a bow or crossbow depending on your preference.
Must-have skills
Penetrating Shot: This is going to be your basic attack in many ways. As the name suggests, this skill shoots an arrow that penetrates all enemies to hit as many as you can get lined up, though at slightly reduced damage than a normal shot. It also has a chance for a Lucky hit, but make sure you get the Enhanced Penetrating Shot as well to increase the damage the shot does by a percentage for each enemy it hits.
