Announced in 2019 during BlizzCon, Diablo IV is a game that is long overdue and Blizzard Entertainment continues to give us news of the game. Today, no less than 3 videos have been published on the dedicated YouTube channel to the license, in order to show us, to begin with, some of the environments that we will be able to discover once the game is released. The atmosphere must be dark, gothic and desolate and from the first images that we see in this video, the challenge seems totally met. We remind you that this Diablo 4 is distinguished by its open structure, since it will be an open world game, but divided into 5 zones in total. Regions that will display their colors and visual atmosphere made possible by a dynamic lighting and weather system. Indeed, each region must offer its own climate and we find that between the coastal village of Scosglen, the monastery of Orbei located in the arid steppes and the snowy weather of Kyovashad, we will travel through varied environments.
But that’s not all, among the other videos that have been published, there is also a whole sequence devoted to sound effects, and in particular the way in which the sound designers have created or even made certain sounds that are both repulsive and consistent with this universe. chaotic and organic of this Diablo IV. Above all, we see that it takes a lot of imagination to find the perfect sound or sound that will stick to a specific action in the game. We see the developers crush lettuce, hit clusters of grapes through a cloth, knead a pasty substance, play with canned peeled tomatoes or even crush pieces of melon. And it is true that once the game is running, the immersion is total and the result stunning.
The release of Diablo 4 is still not known, do we just know that the game comes out on PC, PS4 and Xbox One. We imagine that there will be an update soon so that it is also available on PS5 and Xbox Series.
