One of those projects, at least reportedly, is a remake of Diablo 2 while the others on Blizzard continue to work on Diablo 4.

to me Bloomberg, Issues related to the development of Warcraft III: Reforged Blizzard made a review of teams whose games were developing moving forward, as their classic “Team 1” games were pulled from the project and replaced with a division that also deals with Diablo 4. Warcraft III has been heavily criticized for its poor quality and lack of There are meaningful improvements. Blizzard wasn’t used to remake or re-master their games before.

Among the developers who are also working on this project is the Vicarious Visions team. It’s the second time that the Tony Hawk developer has been absorbed into another studio, with Neversoft joining Infinity Ward in 2014.

This new Diablo 2 version has not been officially announced by Blizzard, but it might be an interim release to make waiting for Diablo 4 a little easier. What won’t be easy is to deal with the studio behind one of the best 2020 games pulled from their own projects to help with this. Not only was Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 replicating what made the original games great, like level design and sound, but also offered an essential skating experience that felt like made today.

Blizzard continues to work on World of Warcraft and Overwatch 2 as well.
