Bustling with players & NPCs
Spread across Diablo 4's massive open world, you'll find towns, which Blizzard says are used to [1]:
- Receive and return quests
- Meet other players
- Buy and sell items from vendors
- Learn about the game's lore
"The world is how you engage with other players in Diablo 4. We'll have social hubs in major towns. This is one from our demo: Corbach. In these towns, not only is this where you pick up quests and talk to NPCs, but you can trade, ask someone about their gear, investigate their build, take a look at how they customize their character and what awesome armor they're wearing. You might even be able to look for a group."Tiffany Watt · Diablo IV Senior Producer
