Old-school Diablo fans may be in for a treat, as remaster Diablo 2, at least in screenshots.
Recently, Diablo fans have been looking forward instead of back, awaiting the release of open world populated by NPCs that the player can chat with.
Though anticipation for Diablo 4 is high and the game has been in development for some time, it looks like a remake of Diablo 2 may beat it to release. A report from French gaming site Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy. As PCGamer notes, Actugaming has a history of accurate leaks regarding Blizzard games, so there may be good reason to believe the Diablo 2 rema ster fans have been waiting for is finally on the horizon.
There hasn’t been an official confirmation from Blizzard, and there’s no word on the scope of the remaster. Blizzard may be weighing its words carefully, following refunds for Warcraft 3: Reforged after it became the lowest rated game ever on Metacritic.
Caution is certainly warranted until an official announcement from Blizzard appears, but it’s hard not to get excited about the prospect of a Diablo 2 remaster to make the wait for Diablo 4 more bearable. An early multiplayer hit, the original Diablo 2 is widely considered to be one of the best games of all time and still has a dedicated community of players 20 years after its release. For both the die-hards and the newcomers, Diablo 2 Resurrected could be a huge deal if it turns out to be real.
