Now Playing: Diablo IV In Game Intro Cinematic
He added: “That’s one of the things I really liked about Diablo as an IP, is that it’s got very relatable themes because it’s The High Heavens versus The Burning Hells, and that idea of Good versus Evil. I think that’s something that could translate very well to something like that.”
Fergusson said he had nothing to announce, but he believes Diablo is ripe for a TV adaptation. He went on to cite the Cyberpunk animated series, Edgerunners, as an example of a video game that was successfully translated to TV. “There’s been a lot of great shows recently,” he said.
He didn’t single them out, but some recent examples of video games getting spun into TV series include The Last of Us, Halo, Twisted Metal, and Fallout most recently. Looking ahead, Sony’s God of War and Horizon franchises are being adapted for TV.
While there is no word yet on if Diablo could become a TV series, Blizzard’s Warcraft series was adapted into a film from Duncan Jones. The movie is among the highest-grossing video game films of all time, but it didn’t perform well in the US, and it never got a sequel.
