Diablo Immortal is the latest in a venerable and much-loved franchise from Blizzard Entertainment, and the first to be made for mobile platforms. It delivers fast-paced hack-and-slash action with several highly varied classes of customizable characters to play as, and an interesting storyline set in a dark fantasy universe.
The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra represents the most powerful mobile smartphone gaming hardware currently available, so how does it handle the latest, and arguably currently greatest, big-name game? We found out.
The first thing to note about Diablo Immortal is that it’s a big download and takes up a lot of space. Once you’ve installed all the updates, the game will gobble up around 10GB of your phone’s storage. That won’t be a problem if you have the 512GB or 1TB versions of the S22 Ultra, as well as a fast internet connection, but if you opted for the base 128GB model, that 10GB is going to sting. Also, if you have a slow DSL connection as I do, be prepared to wait half the day for the game to be fully installed. It is possible to play with only 2.4GB downloaded, but that’s a much more limited experience.
I tested Diablo Immortal on the 512GB version of the S22 Ultra, which means I have a whopping 12GB of RAM to work with. If you have the 128GB model of the S22 Ultra, you’ll have only 8GB of RAM, so the higher storage capacity versions of the phone offer a real advantage for gaming beyond just the capacity to store games. However, while I was unable to test the 128GB model, it should deliver a very similar experience to the 512GB model, as Diablo Immortal only requires a minimum of 2GB of RAM.
The S22 Ultra comes equipped with an Exynos 2200 processor and Xclipse 920 if you live in Europe, or a Qualcomm
