Diablo 4's release date remains a mystery. According to recent statements by Allen Adham to the magazine EDGE, however, it is certain that PvP will finally be back. Blizzard's co-founder said the developers are currently working on "interesting mechanics" regarding PvP battles. So there will probably be zones in the open game world where players can attack other players - whether surprisingly or with a necessary mutual consent remains to be seen.
Diablo: Always thought about PvP
Accordingly, PvP is an essential part of Diablo 4 and important for the developers. PvP will therefore not only be included as an added game element in the action role-playing game. Co-Founder Allen Adham said that PvP has been around since Ur-Diablo. However, the first considerations were only implemented with Diablo 2, when the players said: "We'll meet outside of the village!"
Diablo 3 also had player battles, but only in the form of duels. With Diablo 4, Blizzard now wants to reintroduce "real PvP" and, according to Adham, is currently developing "some really interesting approaches". Since Adham makes direct reference to Diablo 2's PvP mechanics, it's safe to assume that some sort of open PvP option could find its way into the game. According to the Blizzard co-founder, the development of the PvP prototype is not at the very beginning: "We're in the middle of prototyping[...]".
In any case, PvP in the open game world would fit the basic concept. In contrast to its predecessors, Diablo 4 is closer to an MMO than to a classic online action role-playing game. There will be trade between players, open world events including world bosses and probably also a crafting system. Various modes could also be implemented for the PvP area - as well as special rewards.

Even if the developers are already working on some mechanics for the "Diablo 4" PvP, none of it is final. Ideas will probably continue to be collected, of which only the most sensible actually make it into the game in the end. Good balancing is at least as important due to the different gameplay mechanics of the classes. And balancing in particular is always a very special topic at Blizzard.
Diablo 4 is currently being developed for PC and consoles, there is no release date yet. An announcement is not expected anytime soon. Possibly could one Diablo 4 beta start next year.
