While Diablo 4 (D4) adopts some features from the MMO genre, it is not an MMO. Find out whether or not Diablo 4 (D4) is an MMO, and learn more about the features it borrows from the genre!
From the game's official Battle.net store page, Diablo 4 is described an "action RPG" with no mention of it being an MMO.
While it does borrow several social features from MMOs, such as an always-online multiplayer world and several hub cities where players can meet, the game prioritizes providing a solid action RPG experience and keeps most multiplayer aspects optional.

Diablo 4 features World Bosses, which are massive boss encounters that require the strength and effort of several player parties to take down. Check out our guide below to learn more about the game's first World Boss, Ashava the Pestilent!

There are also plenty of randomly-occurring events in Diablo 4's open world, which players can participate in and help fellow players to receive rewards, such as loot, Experience, and Murmuring Obols.
These events include World Events, short side activities that take a few minutes to complete, and Legion Events, which involve taking down several waves of high-level enemies.
Diablo 4 also features a Clan system, which allows players to group up with a large community of friends or like-minded players. Clans let players have an easier time gathering for in-game activities, setting player goals, and socializing with fellow players.
Players can also engage in PvP in Diablo 4 through the game's Fields of Hatred. In these locations, players take down demons and each other to collect Seeds of Hatred, which they can purify into Red Dust.
After collecting enough Red Dust, players can spend them at Unsavory Oddities Vendors to purchase a variety of items including cosmetics, mounts, and random pieces of equipment.
