Blizzard announced at Blizzcon remake of Diablo inside of Diablo III as part of an upcoming “20th anniversary” patch, the company said today. It’ll include a 16-level dungeon and the four main bosses from the first Diablo.
The Diablo 1 Remake will come in the form of a new mode in Diablo 3, which will also include special filters to make it as true to the original as possible.
It was confirmed during Blizzcon 2016 that this will include 16 levels and four main bosses and will be a free event.
“There will be many secrets to discover as well. If you love Diablo, this anniversary event will be very nostalgic,” chief development officer Frank Pearce revealed on stage. Pearce also revealed that a Necromancer class is coming to Diablo 3, based partly on the Diablo 2 version. The patch, The Darkening of Tristam, will be free to Reaper of Souls owners on both PC and console. Says Blizzard in a press release:
Celebrate 20 years of Diablo by traveling back into the depths of the Cathedral where it all began in this upcoming Diablo III: Reaper of Souls content update. Get ready to explore a monster-filled dungeon 16 levels deep, and come face to face with the four main bosses from the original game—all with retro touches like special graphics filters and eight-direction character movement.
The patch will be live on the public test realm next week.
The Necromancer will be the next fully-playable class introduced to Diablo III: Reaper of Souls. As a master of the dark arts, you draw your magic from the power of death itself. The Necromancer will be available as part of the Rise of the Necromancer pack, set to release in 2017. Players will need both Diablo III and Reaper of Souls to access this content.In addition to unlocking the Necromancer as a playable character, players will also receive an in-game pet, two additional character slots, two additional stash tabs (on PC), a portrait frame, pennant, banner, and banner sigil.”
