In more ways than one, this July 7th marks a turning point for Diablo Immortal, as players will soon be able to discover new update content, as well as Battle Card 2. But don’t expect anything out of the ordinary. The game is currently under maintenance Blog and correction notes should arrive in the late afternoon. This July 1st patch should mainly introduce various fixes, as well as a new event.

The second patch in July for Diablo Immortal

Since Diablo Immortal does not have dedicated forums, we have to go again to PezRadar’s posts on Reddit Get information. For the record, he acts as a community manager for the entire Diablo license. The second patch, scheduled for “later” in July, is the first major content patch. In his words, the development team needs more time to prepare, but it should include the changes made to the chapters, as well as other elements, without further details.

One thing is for sure, that the adjustments that will be made to the game in order to calm players, and possibly bring back some of those who have already left, are very long. Below is a small list of urgently expected changes. We don’t know if any of these will be fixed with the July 7 patch, or with the one planned for later this month. See the following as a list of requests that may be considered urgent:

• Fixed battlefield queues, auto-lens shots on battlefields, and a crushing feature awarded to defenders.
• The player count requirement in dungeons and hordes in Hell 1 and above has been removed.
• Fixed Immortals activities, added Vault defense queue, among other things.
• More generous daily rewards, across all aspects of the game.

Blizzard’s F2P MMO has broken new records with a low rating on Metacritic. Other than the purely P2W aspect, we will try to objectively review some of its worst flaws, which are detrimental to the gaming experience, and which can have serious consequences in the long run.

Imminent release in Asia

Remember that Diablo Immortal will also release in Asia on July 7, which should happen in a few hours, with the time difference. Many players are wondering about the changes made to this new version of the game, and whether or not it will be released in China. The game isn’t dead yet, far from that, but the next few days will definitely have a huge impact on its future.
