It will include both the base game and the Lord of Destruction expansion.

In order to favor both life-long Diablo fans and new ones, the cinematics of Diablo II: Resurrected will be modernized. Players will have the choice between a two-dimensional gameplay similar to the original Diablo, or a more contemporary one.

Diablo II Resurrected will be available later this year for Nintendo Switch, PC, PS5, PS4 and Xbox Series X|S. More details will be revealed in the upcoming Diablo panel, which can be seen either through Twitch or YouTube.
