Diablo Immortal celebrates 20 million players with one legendary crest

Diablo Immortal reaches another player count milestone, with players each receiving one legendary crest to celebrate the RPG game ing 20 million installs

RPG game has ed 20 million installs. In celebration, players can to the game to collect a special bundle of goodies sent out as thanks – although the meagre contents of it have left some fans chuckling.

The Diablo Immortal Twitter posted a status announcing, "20 million demon slayers and counting." They also say to players that in-game rewards would be provided to commemorate the milestone, including "a legendary crest, gold, and more." This has prompted some jokey responses from the community, who made light of the package.

"Whoa! One legendary crest! Thanks Blizzard," reads one response. There has been much discussion among some of the Diablo Immortal community recently about Blizzard's seeming reluctance to give out legendary crests, the item used when tackling elder rifts that allows players to get their hands on legendary gems.

Some players were disappointed that the recent season two battle offers just three of them – one fewer than the previous season's offering.

This concern is further exacerbated by the fact that the legendary crests handed out – including the one from this player milestone celebration package – are just regular ones that drop bound gems, and not the July 20 Diablo Immortal update does finally offer players a way to get their hands on eternal legendary crests without spending real money, however.

The story has since embroiled CEO Bobby Kotick and prompted the US federal government to open an investigation. It continues to unfold and to be of immense importance to the game industry.

The game's player count was likely bolstered by the game's launch in several Asia Pacific regions on July 7. A report from Bloomberg says the game is also scheduled to launch in China on July 25, following a month-long delay resulting from a controversial social media post, which should see those install numbers climb even further.

In total, the celebration package for the milestone includes 1 legendary crest, 30,000 gold, 15 enchanted dust, and 200 scrap materials. Some of the they just want to pet a dog – and that seems like a fairly reasonable request to us.
