At BlizzCon 2018, fans responded to the statement of Diablo IV Gold in an manner. While there were many contributing factors to describe that reaction, the recent statement of a full-fledged Path of Exile Mobile game which sacrifices none of the PC version's sophistication makes it crystal clear that Diablo 3 could easily be a cellular port, and could be a far better choice than Diablo IV.
The announcement trailer for Path of Exile Mobile, shown below, jabs -- without much subtlety -- in how the programmers wanted to make a game with zero compromise, which is to say, a great game that just so happened to be played on a telephone. Without naming Diablo IVthey list most of the complaints that gamers have against that forthcoming project, including how it is not being developed by Blizzard, but was farmed out to a third party, and how it's a watered-down version of the game on PC.
Years before, the idea of porting Diablo 3 on a phone would have been a bit too extreme, however with the increasing ability of smartphones, the proven notion of playing less powerful hardware with the successful Nintendo Shift interface, and the visuals of Diablo IV that we've seen so far, this is no longer the case.
Not porting Diablo 3 to phones is a missed opportunity, especially because cross progression between platforms could have been a big selling point not just for people who still play with the game, but to lure players back or to purchase it for the first time on PC or console. Imagine using a full size Diablo 3 match on your phone and knowing that progress made counted as an example, towards a Journey.
Beyond this, the situation for Diablo 3 could be made because the game is already such a sequel compared to Diablo two or Path of Exile. There's little in terms of decision making for optimal and gear end game builds, and when Path of Exile can accommodate its own system of vast character customization, there is no good reason for Diablo 3 to not work as well.
We have not yet seen precisely how Blizzard will want to monetize Diablo IV, though speculation is that tools for playtime is going to be gated, or that one class will be liberated and courses must be bought. It is not easy to say if a port of Diablo 3 would be as profitable, but there is no doubt that it could be better for players, particularly and games console.
Diablo 4 was unveiled at BlizzCon 2019, at last. The match was even playable on the showfloor, though Blizzard made it clear there is not any release window of yet and fans may be waiting for a while. Afterward, the buy Diablo 4 Gold thirst for information is very real though it has not been since BlizzCon 2019. Thankfully, Blizzard's co-founder Allen Adham was showcased in an interview published on magazine.
