‘Diablo’ is a series of video games developed by Blizzard Entertainment originally in 1996 and followed by eight more games, including sequels and remakes, of the same. The third part of the game has already had two remakes and the second part has had one. Apart from this, two upcoming games in the series are ‘Diablo 4’ and ‘Diablo Immortal,’ and the former can be expected to be played on Xbox One, PC, and PlayStation 4. Now, another remaster of ‘Diablo 2’ might be in the works, and it is speculated that game development studio Vicarious Visions may be the one working on this new project. However, although it has not officially been announced.
What speculation says
Earlier this month, Activision, an independent video game software developer, was absorbed by Blizzard. The former has recently revealed that its wholly-owned subsidiary Vicarious Visions will now be a subsidiary to Blizzard. Following this announcement, avid fans went berserk and are now running theories about how this may be the first step towards them working on the highly anticipated remake of ‘Diablo 2’. The Blizzard’s team that worked on ‘Warcraft 3: Reforged’ was working on the remake of ‘Diablo 2’ until last year, but Blizzard decided to put the team in charge of ‘Diablo 4’ instead, following the below-par performance of Reforged.
