The news took the Internet by storm this week-end when Blizzard announced that Diablo 3 is in developpment. Many had speculated that it was about time they gave sign of life to this franchise and I can say I’m genuinely looking forward to it. The original Diablo was my first Mature rated game and I clearly remember how under aged I was back then. It’s a good old hack and slash RPG, played mostly with the mouse (point and click). If you visit their official website you can see a theatrical teaser that announces the new game, along a 22 minutes video that demonstrates the gameplay with two different character classes. You can get up to speed with the franchise by reading or listening to Cain’s journal that summerises events from the original Diablo, Diablo II, and the expansion set called Lord of Destruction. I just hope this will be released this year! Who needs Starcraft II or Warth of the Lich King when a new Diablo game is coming.
