Diablo 2

Exploding waves of demons.

This may sound like a weird thing to ask, but I've been thinking about Diablo 4 and how the Action-RPG has evolved over the years, and how the storytelling on games like Diablo 2 and Diablo 3 centers the player and their choices.

Unlike the original, Diablo 2: Resurrected is going to be playable on a number of platforms, including Windows PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, and Nintendo Switch.

Diablo 2 Resurrected is upon us.

If you've been watching BlizzConline (or reading about it), you've probably heard mention of cross-progression, a feature you'll find in both Diablo 2: Resurrected and Diablo 4.

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.

I was relieved to see that gameplay in Diablo 2: Resurrected is almost completely unchanged.

We've been expecting this one for a while.

I'm not saying that's going to be the case, but it's been a year and then some since the big Diablo 4 reveal at BlizzCon 2019, and even though we've seen numerous Developer Updates on the game, one thing we haven't seen is any news of any new classes being added after the Druid, Sorceress, and Barbarian announced at that time.

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