The important name of the video game world, Activision Blizzard, made a remarkable announcement. In this announcement, important information was given about the games called Diablo 4 and Overwatch 2, which millions of players have been waiting for a long time. Although the developers have been eagerly awaited for a while, they announced that the games that turned into a mess due to the development process were postponed. The expected release date for both games has been moved to 2022.
Diablo 4 was first announced in 2019. During the announcement, Activision Blizzard announced that the game would take a long time to complete. Moreover, nothing definite was ever said. It seems that this situation of being unclear will continue for a while. Meanwhile, it is not yet clear whether the game will be released in 2022.
Harassment scandal may have sparked procrastination
Overwatch 2 was announced in 2019, just like Diablo 4. The company did not say anything clear about this game at that time. However, game lovers were waiting for this game with great curiosity. The statement made by Activision Blizzard seems to have left the enthusiasm of Overwatch fans in their crops.
As a matter of fact, the company had implied that it closed the book for 2021 in its previous statements. The statements made now reveal that the implications have now become clear. However, Activision Blizzard did not give an explanation as to why the games were delayed. Industry sources think that the harassment issue that the company has been grappling with for a while may have caused such a situation.
