The big announcement that Blizzard has been keying up to is indeed that Diablo III is in development. This makes me happier than Starcraft 2, although I’m sure will enjoy both immensely. The official Diablo III website has a 20 minute gameplay video already, and it looks really great. The bread and butter of the Diablo series for me are the animations and immersion, and the video seems to show that in spades. Not to mention new sparkly weapons and multilayered creatures that come at you from all sides.
Two classes are revealed in an interactive way, the Barbarian and the Witch Doctor, with more to come as they draw out expectation.
No release date is announced.
Here’s the teaser trailer:
