You move around by using a digital analog 'stick' on the left side of the screen, while all your abilities are arranged on the right side of the screen. Some of the beauty of the Diablo franchise is that it's pretty easy to navigate, and that simple movement system translates very well to mobile with Diablo Immortal. And this is coming from someone who is generally not a fan of touch controls. It was a blast - the controls are simple and laid out very well, the action feels like classic Diablo, and the level design had a great foreboding feel to it. I got my hands on the demo of it and blasted through the levels with a Barbarian, and then I did it again with a Wizard. As we reported a few weeks back, Apex Legends Mobile’s first month earned EA $11.6m from 21.8m downloads, according to Appmagic.ĭiablo Immortal launched to an appropriately fiery reception last month, due to perceived aggressive monetisation practices – we had a broader look at why bringing hardcore IP like this over to mobile is fraught with danger here.The boss fights look interesting, the levels look more dynamic than ever before, and, to be frank, I like the Diablo Immortal aesthetic more than I like Diablo 3's aesthetic. Just for a little context, these first month figures are way ahead of another big-name IP that came to mobile recently. After the first week on sale, total revenue was at $11.9m, and at day 30 it totalled $49m (Or $48,988,970, according to Appmagic). On revenue, the data suggests the game peaked ten days after launch, with Blizzard earning $2.4m on June 11.

After its first week on sale, total downloads stood at 6.85m, and at day 30, they were at 10.35m. Taking a look at downloads first, the game peaked on its third day of global release, June 4, with 1.32m downloads in one day.

It should be taken into account that Immortal is free to play, of course.Īppmagic’s figures cover developer earnings, so do not include the 30% Apple and Google tax either, so total overall revenue will be higher than the $49m heading Blizzard’s way. According to Blizzard, Diablo 3 sold 3.5m in its first day and 6.3m in its first week back in 2012, but a later financial report suggested that the game didn’t hit 10m sales until June 30, six weeks after launch. The data, collated by, suggests that the mobile edition is likely the Diablo series’ biggest ever launch. Diablo Immortal’s first month of release has earned Blizzard $49m from 10m downloads, according to Appmagic figures.
