‘Diablo III’ Wants to Be Your Go-to Co-op Game on PS4

Published

I suppose Blizzard would like the Diablo III: Reaper of Souls Ultimate Evil Edition, which is arriving on current and last-gen consoles, to be your go-to co-op game on whichever platform you’re planning on grabbing it on, but they’re really pushing it on PS4. With the exclusive Shadow of the Colossus armor and a special The Last of Us themed dungeon, if you have the option to choose, the PS4 version is the one to get.

In a new video for the game, which releases on Tuesday, we’re given an in-depth look at the many reasons why you won’t need another co-op game after you get this. With its local and online 4-player co-op, neither of which force you to share your loot, the ability to play the game at a friend’s house with your character and keep that progress when you return to your home console, and the new player mail feature that lets you send gold or items to friends, this truly is the ultimate version of Blizzard’s epic dungeon crawler.

The console-exclusive Nemesis system sounds especially interesting. When you die, the monster that took you down becomes a more powerful Nemesis and proceeds to hunt down some unsuspecting soul on your friends list. See all of these features and more in the video below.

Diablo III: Reaper of Souls Ultimate Evil Edition arrives on Tuesday, August 19 for PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One.

Clive Barker

We told you earlier this month that horror legend Clive Barker is leaving the convention scene behind to focus entirely on his writing, with various upcoming projects in the works.

A series of final appearances from Barker will begin at Days of the Dead Chicago this month, and we’ve learned Barker will also be coming to Monster Mania in New Jersey.

Clive Barker will be signing at Monster Mania 59 in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, which runs from August 2 – August 4, 2024. Stay tuned for more info from the convention.

Barker’s official statement earlier this month explained, “… it’s time to focus entirely on writing. I’m not stopping public events because I’ve lost delight in meeting you all over the years. I’m as passionate as ever about sharing my imagination with readers and moviegoers around the world. In the very room where I’m writing these words, I have the manuscripts for a very large number of projects (Thirty-one of them), some very close to completion, others still telling themselves. There are some wild projects in this collection of works, whether close to finished or done. There are also stories that you all knew I would be finishing.”

“Abarat IV and V are amongst the books at my feet,” he continued. “So is the Third and final book of The Art and the sequel to The Thief of Always. There are also return visits to characters and mythologies you may have thought I would never return to.

“I hope I am still able to surprise you in the decades ahead.”
