New virtual currency guidelines in the European Union may force Blizzard to change how it sells Platinum, the in-game currency for Diablo 4. These guidelines could have large implications for Diablo 4's monetization model, possibly making it more user-friendly - or possibly, even worse buy Diablo 4 gold.



One of the key principles outlined by the EU is that Practices to avoid:

Offering in-game virtual currencies only in bundles mismatching the value of purchasable in-game digital content and services Denying consumers the possibility to choose the specific amount of in-game virtual currency to be purchased. These actions will likely have a profound impact on how Platinum sales are handled in the Diablo 4 shop.



The actual outcome of these new guidelines remains to be seen. It will take all companies, not just Blizzard, some time to adjust - if they choose to do so - meaning any changes won't likely be this season, or possibly even this expansion. In any case, how Blizzard responds to these potential changes will likely be game changing for the economy of the game Diablo 4 gold.
