Diablo 4 director Brent Gibson says support will continue after Diablo 5 launches. Gibson told Icy Veins “the train isn’t stopping,” and that seasons will keep coming “as long as the community continues to show up.” He pointed to Diablo 2 and Diablo 3 still getting work. The Amazon class is still due in the first half of 2027. The D5 reveal made some players treat D4 like it was done. Gibson’s line is that the two games can run at the same time if people keep logging in.

Diablo 4’s Solo Self-Found mode is still down in Season 15. Blizzard disabled it at launch while looking into a bug. Seasonal Realm is up. SSF is not. “We know many of you are waiting for Solo Self-Found (SSF) to return. Restoring the feature remains a top priority for the team, but the work will take additional time.” No ETA. They say they’ll post again when there’s progress.

A Diablo 4 lead developer says crunch in gaming doesn’t always happen for the same reason, and the difference between indie studios and AAA companies is huge. He explained that smaller teams often crunch because they’re fighting to survive financially. In his words, “the company is on the verge of collapsing,” meaning delays or failed launches could put the entire studio at risk. He said the situation is different at major AAA publishers. Large companies usually have bigger budgets, more staff, and enough resources to avoid forcing developers into extreme overtime. But despite that, “you might still have a culture of crunch” because some studios treat long hours as a normal part of development. Crunch has been one of the biggest issues in the gaming industry for years, especially after reports from studios behind major releases revealed stories of burnout Via gamesradar
