The cinematics will be the same but with a lot more detail and fidelity,” he said. “So the same 28 minutes of cinematics that you saw – on both the original Diablo II and the expansion – are all the same shots. In an interview with IGN, Resurrected game designer, Andre Abrahamian confirmed that the cinematics are a 1:1, shot for shot remake. The remaster has taken Diablo II’s 2D sprites and made it 3D.
DIABLO 2 REMAKE SKIN
Rather, Resurrected showcases a new skin with the classic game beneath the surface. We’re not reverse-engineering it we’re not rebuilding it and trying to make it look and sound like. Speaking to Polygon, the franchise’s executive producer, Rod Fergusson, said: “This isn’t a remake. The storyline, classes, monsters and everything else that makes Diablo II so beloved remains – with a 2021 lick of paint. To answer that question, it might help to ask and answer another question: why? Why not leave the classic as is and turn attention to something new, like, I don’t know, Diablo IV?īlizzard’s team says it’s because of Diablo II’s iconic status that it’s making a return: players of the 2000 game will be able to experience a modernised look and feel, while new players will get to discover the acclaimed game in the formats they’re accustomed to.įirst off, Blizzard’s team has stressed that Diablo II Resurrection is not a remake but rather a remastering of the game (and its 2001 expansion pack Diablo II: Lord of Destruction).
So what can players old and new expect this time round? The original game is nearly 21 years old but it remains a favourite among gamers and gained near icon status. Blizzard Entertainment caused something of a tectonic shift when it announced at February’s BlizzConline that the long-rumoured and anticipated Diablo II Resurrection remaster is officially happening.
