Blizzard has released a statement to let fans know not to expect a major Diablo announcement at BlizzCon in November. Writing on its website, Blizzard said it's aware of the "rumours flying around" about Blizzard's plans for Diablo at BlizzCon, but a new game announcement may not be one of them. The studio re-affirmed that it is working on multiple different new Diablo projects, but in typical Blizzard form, the developer said it won't talk about them until "the time is right."

"We know what many of you are hoping for and we can only say that 'good things come to those who wait,' but evil things often take longer," Blizzard said. "We appreciate your patience as our teams work tirelessly to create nightmarish experiences worthy of the Lord of Terror."
