release date for diablo 4?trackid=sp-006

While we didn't get to try much multiplayer, we were thoroughly impressed with our short time spent exploring Sanctuary and becoming familiar with the game's larger overworld. There are more cutscenes to help immerse players in the world as soon as the game starts, and the entire atmosphere feels significantly darker and more threatening than the setting of Diablo III. As players progress, the content shifts from pre-planned story set-pieces to more challenging, procedurally-generated contentīeyond the obvious improvements to graphics, we immediately noticed some key changes in presentation compared to the series' previous games. While there is a core campaign with clear-cut missions, players are also encouraged to adventure to unknown areas for rare rewards and side quests. Players can choose between one of five classes: druid, rogue, sorceress, barbarian, and necromancer (though necromancer and druid were unavailable in the hands-on test). We have some light experience playing Diablo II and III, so the gameplay immediately felt familiar on PC, letting us guide our character through the overworld of Sanctuary while fighting enemies and exploring early-game dungeons, all with a few clicks of the mouse. We got to try the first few hours of Diablo IV during a hands-on media event.

This will only be available from the Blizzard Gear Store, starting December 15. Keep in mind, however, this package does not include a copy of the actual game.
