Those that were looking forward to playing Diablo III before the end of the year are going to be a little disappointed because Blizzard has just admitted that the sequel to the very popular PC title won’t be ready for release in its 2011 release window and has instead bumped the date back to sometime in “early 2012.”
It should be noted however the Blizzard never really admitted that the game would be released on 2011, but they simply set it as a goal. Blizzard president Mike Morhaime said that “While this news might not be a complete surprise, I know that many of you were hopeful that Diablo III would ship this year. We were too.” They plan on delivering the same level as quality as always though as he continued to say that the company “we should take a little more time and add further polish to a few different elements of the game.”
