After a big weekend Grand Theft Auto The leak, now it turns out, also has a big Diablo 4 Leaked as test footage has surfaced online.
As Reddit user iV1rus0 shared on the GamingLeaksAndRumours subreddit, about 53 minutes of the upcoming sequel can be viewed as a pair of videos, one about 5 minutes and the other about 38 minutes. While the GTA 6 footage is the result of a hack, this Diablo footage appears to be from a Discord stream, as the app’s notification sounds can be heard in the background.
You can even hear people live-streaming the game, although their voices are distorted, probably to protect their identities. While all footage is watermarked, who knows how effective this will be.
The important thing to note is that the game is clearly not finished and as you can see in the footage some of the environments are just blocky, untextured parts so if you do look at the footage keep in mind that this is not the final product. There are a few other hiccups here and there, as the movement doesn’t seem to be the smoothest, but it clearly blends in nicely.
The clip shows players exploring the world as a barbarian, with occasional fights that look fleshed out. But again, as far as release dates go, try to keep your expectations in check.
If you’re concerned that Diablo 4 is going to look like Immortal by any means in terms of monetization, the head of Diablo Rod Ferguson says it’s a game designed for console and PC audiences that seems to imply that microtransactions won’t be there. In the same game they are immortal.
The biggest problem is that Diablo seems to be going the Call of Duty path, which is not what all games should be doing.
