Diablo Immortal harkens back to the peace era, after the fall of the last Prime Evil known as Baal, in Diablo II Lord of Destruction. This is also the time when the Demon Hunters are formed.

With the fall of the Prime Evils, Diablo's minions seek fragments of the Worldstone in a bid to resurrect their fallen master, and it is up to the players to defend the realm.

The free-to-play massively multiplayer online action role-playing game has already garnered a decent number of fans across available platforms, and Demon Hunter is one of the six playable classes in the game.
