DiabloFans.com has the outcome of the
countdown that started on Diablo3.com a couple of weeks ago
(
story), saying that Blizzard is taking over the Diablo3.com
domain from them. Expectations that the announcement to which they were counting
down were tempered by a follow-up (
story), but this move carries
the obvious implication that Blizzard is turning their attention to a next
installment in the action/RPG series, welcome news to a good number of
Diablo
fans (though DiabloFans.com has word from Blizzard saying this should not to be
considered a
Diablo III announcement.
Update: It seems the assumption
originally expressed here that Blizzard bought the domain may have been
incorrect, as there are indications the domain was freely handed over. Apologies
for the error.
