Diablo 2 Multiplayer

Watching the Diablo Q&A at BlizzConline, I was happy to hear Rob Gallerami talk about how multiplayer is going to work in Diablo 2: Resurrected. Although I was a bit disappointed to hear him say that we're not going to get the couch co-op play that Diablo 3 has on consoles, I was heartened to hear that 8-player multiplayer will be available, hearkening back to the way it worked when the game first came out, and it'll be available through Battle.net.

To be clear right off the bat, this is just a post of speculation.
