Cyberpunk 2077 is coming to Battle.net for some reason, and Geralt will be in Diablo 4

Blizzard's gaming platform Battle.net has expanded its lineup of non-Blizzard games, now hosting Cyberpunk 2077 and its expansion. CD Projekt Red, the developer behind the Polish fantasy role-playing series The Witcher, announced this at BlizzCon. It joins other games like Sea of Thieves, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4, and The Outer Worlds 2 that are available on Battle.net.

Despite its popularity, the original Diablo remains exclusive to GOG, while Diablo 2 Resurrected, Diablo 4, and Overwatch are the only Blizzard games currently on Steam. In a surprising twist, Geralt of Rivia, the protagonist from The Witcher series, will be featured as a skin for the barbarian class in Diablo 4. Players who pre-purchase The Witcher 3's Songs of the Past DLC on Battle.net will unlock this exclusive cosmetic.

Additionally, more Witcher-themed content is expected for 2027. The collaboration between Blizzard and CD Projekt Red also includes upcoming Edgerunners-themed cosmetics for Overwatch, with the show's second season premiering on Netflix on October 20.
