TheWorld of Warcraft20th Anniversary Celebration events aren’t restricted to only one game, as Blizzard revealedDiablo Immortal, the mobile game spin-off of the hit action-RPG series, is going to host a major crossover event. Dubbed Eternal War, the event will run from November 13 to December 11, giving players the chance to earn weapon skins from World of Warcraft, a Murloc Familiar Skin, fight for the Alliance or the Horde in Cuthtroat Basin, inspired by the classic Arathi Basin battleground, and even earn a new gem. In order to earn those Legendary Weapon Cosmetics, players will have to venture into the Fallen Citadel and take on the Lich King.

World of Warcraft was a genre-defining hit when it first debuted in 2004 and established the template for all MMORPGs that followed, while on the other hand, Diablo Immortal was announced to boos and jeers at BlizzCon 2018. Looked down upon by Diablo fans as a cheap mobile cash-in, Diablo Immortal has managed to carve out its own dedicated fan base, despite ongoing criticism about monetization. The Eternal War event may not change anyone’s mind, but it’s a sign that even under the ownership ofMicrosoft, the mobile title is sticking around. And with therecent $90 World of Warcraft 20th Anniversery mountmaking more money in a few days than entire gaming franchises, it’s clear that the current monetization strategy is creating a massive profit.
