Fans Eagerly Wait For Diablo 3 Release Date
One of the most anticipated games that will be released soon is the latest sequel to the very popular Diablo and Diablo 2. With the last game released way back in 2000, you can understand why those fans waiting for this third game in the series have been speculating just when the Diablo 3 release date will be announced.
It was at the end of 1996 that Blizzard released the first ever game, a role playing game set in a dark fantasy world called Sanctuary. Diablo immediately caused a stir in the industry with some revolutionary new ideas, concepts that became pretty much the norm in other video games for many years to come.
It was different from other RPG titles available, with hack and slash action rather than turn-based, and this exciting real time action made it popular as a multiplayer game too. The sequel in 2000, was for many years one of the most popular of all online games.
The original game came out on PC and a few months later, a Mac version followed. In 1998 there was a Playstation release of it though without any online features. The sequel didn’t have a console release, and although there has been talk of releasing it on other platforms, at this point Diablo 3 has only been mentioned for the PC and Mac.
This series is one of the world’s biggest selling, and in fact they set records in 2000 when Diablo 2 sold more copies in two weeks than any game before it. Numerous awards and rave reviews followed, and so it is quite understandable just why this latest sequel is as anticipated as it is. Ever since the announcement from Blizzard in 2008 that it was being developed again, blogs, forums and news sites have been abuzz about a possible Diablo 3 release date.
One of the other reasons that people cannot wait for the Diablo 3 release date, is of course because of the other games Blizzard has created. Apart from this record-breaking series, they are also responsible for the Warcraft and Starcraft series. Last year they released Starcraft 2, almost twelve years after the original, to critical acclaim, while the Warcraft series expanded into the extremely popular massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG), World of Warcraft, which has over 12 million users, and currently has the most subscribers of any online game in the world.
