While we know that a Diablo 4 is in the works, it’s looking like we probably won’t see the game for quite some time. In the meantime, however, it recently came to light that Blizzard is also in the midst of making a Diablo 2 remake. We don’t know much about what that will look like, or if we’ll potentially get it before the fourth game, but rumor on the street is we will see it revealed soon.

Kaiser499 took to Twitter to claim that the Diablo 2 remake is going to be titled Diablo 2 Resurrected, and would be revealed alongside several other things at this year’s BlizzCon, which Blizzard is calling BlizzConline as it will be a digital-only event. No other details are given about what to expect. Kaiser was also the original leaker for Diablo 4 and Overwatch 2, so they have a solid record, though of course, like all leaks, take it with a grain of salt.

BlizzConline is set to start on February 19th and run until the 20th. We will see if this information is true soon enough.

If this were any other year, there would be hype surrounding the upcoming BlizzCon, Blizzard Entertainment’s yearly convention. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, BlizzCon 2020 was cancelled like many other conventions in the interest of public health and safety. Blizzard previously talked about the possibility of interacting with fans online and it seems a virtual event will be happening in early 2021 after all.

This was confirmed during Activision’s recent financial earnings report by Blizzard president J. Allen Brack. Brack noted that, “We are planning on channeling the spirit of BlizzCon into a virtual event in the early part of next year. We’re really fortunate to have a passionate and engaged community that’s really looking forward to what we’re creating and what we’re working on. And we’re looking forward to sharing what the teams have been working on for that event.”

BlizzCon is usually the site of major announcements for the company’s upcoming titles – last year’s show saw Diablo 4 and Overwatch 2 announced, for example. However, Blizzard also hosts different tournaments, cosplay contests and developer panels, some which could translate over to a digital format. The Overwatch League is a good example of this, having switched to a completely online format due to the pandemic.

We’ll have to wait and see how things pan out. In the meantime, stay tuned for more details and take any rumor about Diablo 4 or Overwatch 2 releasing this year with a large grain of salt.
