Let's get the obvious stuff out of the way first: Diablo III looks good on PS4. The demo I played didn't stutter or hitch once -- 1080p and 60FPS or better throughout, as confirmed by Production Director John Hight when I spoke with him on the show floor -- even when three other players jumped in. Everything looks tack-sharp, and plenty of extra bits have been added or tweaked in Diablo III's PS4 version. Just wait 'till you see the glow of a freshly dropped health globe reflected in a pool of stagnant water.
CCC Says: "Its safe to say that Diablo III had some big shoes to fill when it finally hit the scene last year. Twelve years after its release, theres still a dedicated fan base mopping up showers of loot in the dungeons and swamps of Diablo II. For years, its many fans had been waiting for a sequel that would deliver on all frontsa product boasting Blizzards usual polish and benefiting from the significant technological advances that these past many years have afforded. And Blizzard made good on those expectations sort of."
Blizzard Entertainment has just released a new trailer for the upcoming Diablo III expansion Reaper of Souls.
Make no mistake, this is hardly a half-baked cash-in, as this new add-on clearly gives gamers plenty of bang for their buck. Well... according to the video anyway. From clan support to completely new game systems, Reaper of Souls will give you plenty of reason to delve back into Blizzard's loot-filled action RPG.
