Diablo 2: Resurrected Gets Live Action Trailer Featuring Marvel’s Shang-Chi Star, Simu Liu

A live action trailer for the upcoming remaster portrays a man who asks a priest to sin in order to battle against the Lord of Terror.

Activision-Blizzard has been in the news a lot lately, and for a lot of less than great reasons. The company has been in the midst of various investigations and allegations, many of which are aimed at the Blizzard side of the company. Regardless, the publisher is still releasing games with one of their most anticipated ones coming later this week, Diablo 2: Resurrected, a remake of the classic RPG. Now we have a special launch trailer, with a very fun surprise.

Blizzard released a live action trailer to celebrate the game’s launch. It also happens to feature Simu Liu. You’ll probably know that name and face as being from the latest Marvel flick, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. Here he portrays a man asking a priest for permission to sin, as he sees the only way to defeat the Lord of Terror is to descend into the darkness himself.

Diablo 2: Resurrected will release on September 23rd for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Switch and PC. You can check out more traditional cinematic trailer from earlier through here.
