According to the LinkedIn profile of Nick van Dyk, president of Activision Blizzard's film and TV division, a Diablo TV adaptation is in pre-production for distribution worldwide through Netflix. His profile claims this will be "rendered in anime style."

Activision Blizzard has not commented on the reports stemming from van Dyk's profile; however, we have heard rumors of a Diablo series in the past. Back in 2018, comic book publishing company Boom! Studios founder Andrew "Andy" Cosby tweeted about being in "final talks" to helm a show for Activision Blizzard and Netflix.

Again, Activision Blizzard has not announced anything officially, but it would seemingly be a smart step for the company. Video game adaptations are all the rage right now. While movies based on video games have struggled to win over fans in the past, the last few adaptations - Castlevania, Detective Pikachu, and Sonic the Hedgehog, to name a few -have been well-received both on streaming services and at the box office.
