A
post on ACTUGAMING reports, in the site's native French, on plans for a
remastered version of
Diablo II (thanks
Wccftech). A
rumor about a Diablo II remake
emerged last year, and this
report claims to have learned of this from sources close to Blizzard. Here is a
machine translation to part of their report:
Among the many projects to
come, we would therefore have a remastered edition of the second episode of the
hack'n'slash series which would take the name of Diablo 2 Resurrected . The
release is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2020 , although the date may be
slightly delayed due to the current situation.
It is the desire to introduce the series to the approach of Diablo 4 that would
have prompted the Californian company to offer a remastered edition. According
to our sources, it is the Vicarious Visions studio that would support Blizzard
for this Diablo 2 Resurrected , project on which he would work since the release
of the Crash Bandicoot trilogy . Remember that Vicarious also worked on the port
of Destiny 2 .
