With Diablo II: Resurrected, the remaster of Diablo II and its add-on Diablo II: Lord of Destruction, which has been requested many times by the community, has been released today after a good 21 years. The gates of hell will reopen at 5 pm German time.

Simultaneous launch on all platforms

Diablo II: Resurrected is available for Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch. Monster Hunt starts today at 5 PM German time on all platforms. It should be possible to download game files in advance at noon. The remaster is only available digitally, a physical version is not planned. The same applies to cross-play at the moment. In contrast, scores are saved on all platforms.

System requirements from semi-antique to the present

Diablo Remaster’s system requirements are extremely human, at least in the low field. With regard to processors, the Intel Core i3-3250 and AMD FX-4350 entry-level models from 2013 are required. For graphics accelerators, the 2012 offshoots are also sufficient.

In order to admire role-playing games in Full HD in full graphical splendor, Blizzard needs a more powerful system. The processor and graphics card must come from the last generation.

Older saved games can be used, but…

Inexplicably already announced in the spring, they reveal Frequently asked questions about upcoming game launches Obvious answer: Saves from old Diablo II can be transferred to remaster, but that only refers to offline saves. To be able to play online, a new character must be created.

The editorial team, as usual, plans to subject the title to an extensive technical test. This will not be possible until early October due to the holidays.
