A year ago, it was rumoured that an adaptation of Blizzard’s Diablo was in the final stages of negotiation over at Netflix. And now according to Activision Blizzard Studio’s co-president Nick van Dyk’s LinkedIn page, that adaptation is all the more closer to reality.
As was reported by Gamespot, Nick van Dyk’s profile lists him as being the executive producer of a TV adaptation of an “anime style” Diablo television show that will be distributed through Netflix. In addition, van Dyk’s profile also lists having “developed and sold an animated series based Blizzard’s Overwatch franchise.”
Nothing has been confirmed or announced as of yet, but with Overwatch 2 and Diablo IV currently being worked on, the timing makes sense. Diablo IV is set for release on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
