Resume revealed: "Diablo" series animation is in production

Feb-19-2020 | Categories: Diablo

After the game became famous, it was adapted into an animation, which can not only expand the brand influence, discover the commercial value of IP, but also meet the needs of fans. The "Pokémon" series does a great job in this regard!


In addition to Nintendo, Activision Blizzard is also an "animated animation company." In September 2018, the media "Variety" broke the news: NETFLIX may cooperate with Activision Blizzard to launch the "Diablo" series of animations.


Andrew Cosby, the creator of Boom! Studios and a screenwriter, revealed on his personal account that he would write a new series of works by Activision Blizzard and NETFLIX. In response to fan questions, he hinted that the work was Diablo. The message was subsequently deleted and it seems that there is no follow-up until now.


However, some netizens recently found some clues: The electronic resume of Nick van Dyk, president of Activision Blizzard's film and television department, pointed out that the animation projects of the "Diablo" series and the "Overwatch" series are currently in progress!


LinkedIn is a global workplace social platform. Players find on the platform: Nick van Dyk is currently responsible for adapting the company's intellectual property content to movies or TV works at Activision Blizzard, and is also the executive producer of the Diablo series of cartoons. According to Nick van Dyk's personal work experience, the Diablo series is currently in production and is expected to be released globally by Netflix in the future.


In addition to the "Diablo" series of animations, Nick van Dyk's work experience also has information about the "Overwatch" series of cartoons. The page reads: "Work with my creative partners to develop and launch the" Blizzard Overwatch "as Basic animation series. "


This should be regarded as "good news" and the credibility is very high. In addition, according to the media "gamespot" report, the project of the "Call of Duty" series of movies does not seem to be the priority plan of Activision Blizzard, but this does not mean that the project is cut. In an interview with BadTaste, director Stefano Sollima revealed that because the direction of development is currently being discussed, the adaptation of the "Call of Duty" series is at a standstill.


It is not difficult to find that Blizzard has not released any new masterpieces throughout the year. World of Warcraft Classic has mixed reviews, and Warcraft III: Reforged has a poor direct rating. Will the "Diablo" series of animations and "Diablo 4" be life-saving straws? Welcome message.
