Diablo 4 and Blizzard Games Suffer DDoS Attack

TL;DR Summary
Diablo IV suffered an extended DDoS attack, causing players to experience high latency and disconnections. Blizzard confirmed the attack and worked to mitigate the issue, but some players reported being unable to play for nearly 12 hours. The situation highlights the risks of always-online games and the lack of an offline way to play Diablo IV as a completely single-player experience. After resolving one DDoS attack, Battle.net reported issues with another one later in the day.
