Diablo II is one of the pinnacle titles in the RPG dungeon-crawling genre. Releasing back in 2000, the game is is getting a remaster, thanks to Blizzard Entertainment and Vicarious Visions.
Announced during this year’s BlizzCon the remaster is set to overhaul the visuals, making new 3D models, adding particle & lighting effects, update the controls and add some quality of life gaming features. Diablo II: Resurrection will include the Lord of Destruction expansion and will allow players to play the title in its classic form too. Here is the announcement trailer.
