Diablo IV is set to release to the masses this week, with early access starting on June 2nd. We were lucky enough to gain access to a near final build of the game last week with all content unlocked. The intention was to develop a review, but the reality set in - this game is way too big and constantly in motion to give the traditional review treatment.

Last night our crew of four dove into the recently released Diablo II remaster, Diablo II: Resurrected. For many of us it was a trip down memory lane as we were all in our prime high school or early college age. It was a time when games actually were sold in stores in giant boxes and DVDs were considered cutting edge.
E3 2021 is the first E3 since Microsoft acquired Bethesda, and today’s Microsoft and Bethesda Games Showcase is the first joint E3 press conference from the two companies. The 90-minute event revealed a number of new and previously announced games that will be coming to Xbox and PC in 2021 and 2022. Naturally, we’re most psyched for the 10 co-op games featured in the showcase.
The long rumor has finally come to light. Blizzard is releasing a remastered version of Diablo II called Diablo II: Resurrected.

While the first bit of co-op news out of this year's BlizzCon was on the cheerier side, the second bit is definitely not. Diablo IV is coming to PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, and... I'd say Blizzard got the "feedback" about Diablo III's art direction/style.
Blizzard kicked off 2017 by letting players return once more to the world of the original Diablo with the "Darkening of Tristram" event in Diablo 3. They promised that it would return and, sure enough, the cultists have already appeared and the portal will open this evening.
