Once lauded for its completely original approach to IP with a reputation for doing no wrong, the company has been sequel-heavy in past years with projects of varying quality, while doubling down on remasters and nostalgia ( Starcraft, Warcraft III, WoW Classic). It’s interesting to see Blizzard go the way of Pixar.

Also, they have their work cut out for them, given that the source code was lost. If this report is accurate, there are three Diablo projects in the pipeline, more than any current Blizzard IP ( Diablo 4, Immortal, this D2 remaster). That could change.Īccording to the site Actugaming, Vicarious Visions (who typically handles remasters/remakes and Skylanders for Activision) is working on a new version of Diablo 2 with the subtitle “Resurrected.” Yep, this is the same source that originally leaked that Diablo 4, WoW‘s Shadowlands expansion and even Overwatch 2 were in the pipeline.
But with each passing year it becomes harder and harder to easily fire it up, especially since it’s not nested natively in Blizzard’s launcher. It’s just that good, and provided the blueprint for so many dungeon crawlers after it: many of which never managed to surpass its scope. I still play it to this day with folks, whether it’s a modded edition or the original. There is no word yet on a Nintendo Switch version, which might have something to do with the persistently online game world.

The game is expected to be out in early 2018, but it’s unclear how long that will take. The game was still viewed as a failure internally and the decision was made to scrap the expansion and begin work on a new title. ‘I’ve always really liked that about any kind of IP: getting really talented artists get a hold of things and then letting them do their version of it. As part of the leak, we found the code for the Mobs system. Then Brom did his own iteration of things and tried different things,’ says Mueller. ‘Victor Lee did the initial design for Lilith. Her new design represents a great example of ‘plussing,’ according to Art Director John Mueller, which is a collaborative process during which one artist takes another’s concept, affirms what he or she likes about it, and tries to add a cool new idea of his or her own.
