“Every single thing you see in the game is there twice – it’s there in the standard definition version and it’s there in our remaster - from the audio to visuals, to all of the mechanics,” says Gallerani. The result is a game that is essentially the same as the original, with the same look and mechanics that players loved and will remember, albeit just enhanced in every way.

#DIABLO 2 REMASTERED 2019 UPDATE#

Nothing short of an entire visual remaster would do, says Vicarious Vision design director, Robert Gallerani. Top of the list for the development team was finding a way to bring the game’s visuals, which were considered ground-breaking back in the year 2000, back to life in a resolution that befits a modern RPG. The team began development in 2019, the game’s September 2021 release being the culmination of more than six years of work. Looking at the scope of the development project gives an idea of just how big the task was for the developers. With new cross-progression, players can also log into their accounts and play the game anywhere they have purchased it, for access to their characters and loot. This shared stash has also recently been updated to include two more tabs that will allow players to organise their loot across 100 slots.ĭiablo II Remastered has also been ported to consoles, bringing the game that was once only the domain of mouse and keyboard warriors, the chance to be equally enjoyed by gamers armed with controllers. Gameplay is essentially the same as it was 20 years ago, but players now have access to a shared stash that allows them to share their loot between their characters – something we wished we could do in the original. The update also sports remastered 7.1 Dolby Surround sound and 27 minutes of original cinematics, that have been re-shot to create a veritable feast for your eyes and ears. To use an overused cliche, the Diablo II Resurrected update is a job well done, a feat that instills a sense of confidence that the games we played and loved long ago, and that are now suffering from a bad case of ageing graphics and mediocre sound quality, can be brought back to life.Īmong the updates found in the remake are meticulously redesigned visuals, including new 3D graphics that deliver the game in what looks to be superb 4K. It's effort that looks to have paid dividends. What’s clear is the extraordinary lengths undertaken by the development teams at Blizzard and Vicarious Visions to bring the game to a modern audience, but also to preserve everything that made the original game so fun. But Diablo II Resurrected, the recently released update of Blizzard’s timeless RPG action game is none of those things. It’s easy to dismiss a remake like Diablo II Resurrection as a slap-up rehash with a few aesthetic changes and accompanying calibrations.
