Thanks to Dedicated Fans, ‘Diablo’ is Now Playable in Your Web Browser
You know that reverse-engineering of Diablo‘s source code last year? The same source code that resulted in one YouTuber creating a port of Blizzard’s classic for the Nintendo Switch?
Well, the same source code has been used again, this time by Rivsoft to allow you to play the original shareware version of Diablo in your web browser! Not only that, but if you own the original game (or the version from GOG.com), you can drag a certain file onto the browser page to access the full game.
The demo gives you access to the first two areas of the game’s dungeon (where you face off against The Butcher), and allows you to play as the Warrior.
There’s no idea on how long this version will be up, but if you’re in a pinch while waiting for Diablo 4, then why not check out this curiosity?

‘Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition’ Announced for Switch 2, Launches Digitally on June 23 [Trailer]
Nintendo Switch 2 owners will be getting their own version of Devil May Cry 5 later this month when Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition launches digitally on June 23. A physical edition of the game will follow on August 28. Players who grab the pre-order or buy the digital version of Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition by July 7 will be eligible for a discount.
First launching on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam way back in 2019, Devil May Cry 5 has become (so far) the best-selling entry in the series. The game will arrive on the Switch 2 in the feature-packed Devil Hunter Edition, with pre-orders available now. The game is essentially the equivalent of Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition, and comes packed with Vergil as a playable character, in addition to bonus content including costume colours, taunts, and battle tracks. Devil Hunter Edition sports a smooth 60 frames-per-second across both TV and handheld modes.
The threat of demonic power has returned to menace the world once again in Devil May Cry 5. The invasion begins when the seeds of a “demon tree” take root in Red Grave City. As this hellish incursion starts to take over the city, a young demon hunter Nero, arrives with his partner Nico in their “Devil May Cry” motorhome. Finding himself without the use of his right arm, Nero enlists Nico, a self-professed weapons artist, to design a variety of unique mechanical Devil Breaker arms to give him extra powers to take on evil demons such as the blood sucking flying Empusa and giant colossus enemy Goliath.
