As each day passes, it seems more likely that we'll end up getting the big Diablo 4 announcement. Also, given that The Game Awards is now just a few days away the announcement could happen at the event. While there's not been any Diablo 4 Items confirmed information from Blizzard however, several sources seem to be quite certain regarding this.
In the words of Insider Gaming, "this is still the case with over 100 journalists receiving the chance to attend an behind-the-scenes video in addition to having the chance to be hands-on with the game. It's believed the embargo for the event and the hands-on experience will be lifted on December 7.
"During the presentation, Rod Fergusson invited all presenters to view The Game Awards as they'll make announcements."
Blizzard announced that Diablo 4 is still getting Set Items, though you'll probably have to wait until after launch to play with them.
Game Director Joe Shely explains during a recent roundtable discussion that reimagining sets in a manner that is compatible with Diablo 4 properly wouldn't be feasible until early next year, although they are considering having them included in it's live services.
"As we've been working on the game, we believed we could develop sets in a new manner that is different from what we've experienced within Diablo 3. But, we needed some additional time to incorporate them in the way that will work well with other elements of Diablo 4, so you will not see them at the beginning in the game," Shely explains. "We believe that sets are awesome, and we'd like to be sure that they're done right, so that's something we're looking at for our live service."
"There's a legendary staff in the demo which turns the spell's fireball to a triple fireball spell," the former director of games Luis Barriga told Polygon(opens in new tab) back in 2019. "The distinction could be due to the fact that, you know that a set currently in live Diablo 3 gives you bonuses which can be a million times more. I believe we're designing the game in the moment to be a bit more constrained to avoid being caught in Diablo 4 Boosting that expanding power-curve."
