While Diablo IV continues to remain frustratingly out of reach, it looks like Blizzard is continuing on with their plan to produce “multiple Diablo projects” in the future.
On March 8, the publisher filed an application with the United State Patent and Trademark Office for a Diablo trademark related to “Downloadable films and movies featuring narratives based on a video game and provided via a video-on-demand service.”
By itself, this filing doesn’t mean much. But when combined with the persistent rumors that Blizzard is teaming up with Netflix (you know, the biggest “video-on-demand service” in the world) to produce an animated adaptation of Diablo, it starts looking a lot more likely.
Hopefully Blizzard has something to announce about a Diablo animated series (and Diablo IV, for that matter) soon.
