Blizzard Celebrates ‘Diablo II’ With Swag and Free Stuff

Published

on

In case you missed it, Diablo II has turned 20 years old. Blizzard obviously hasn’t, and so they’ve come up with a couple of goodies to celebrate.

For starters, Blizzard has put together a retrospective article, which if you’ve been a longtime fan, should serve as a nice refresher. Secondly, for Diablo III players, Blizzard has created a decorative set of wings that you’ll be able to claim today. Since the D2 version of Diablo didn’t have wings, you instead get the spiky tendrils of the Lord of Destruction, Baal. A nice way to acknowledge the game’s expansion pack.

Lastly, if you really want something to go on your desk, Blizzard has created a new 10-inch limited edition polyresin bust of the Lord of Terror himself. The UK page says it will be delivered this Fall, while the US page says no later than January 21.

The latest game in the series, Diablo IV, is still in production for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.

Come Face to Face With the Zombie Menace in the Story Trailer for ‘Zombie Army VR’ [Watch]

While there’s no definitive release date just yet, Rebellion is teasing fans with a new story trailer for the upcoming Zombie Army VR, which is expected to arrive later this year. The new trailer gives fans and prospective players a glimpse at the Zombie Army VR story campaign, which as you might have guessed, involves occult magic, waves of zombies, and plenty of headshots.

The game’s campaign takes place alongside the events of the Zombie Army series, and sees you take to the field as one of the Deadhunters, an elite squad that is hunting down zombie war criminals. You must fight your way through undead hordes near the bombed-out city of Nuremberg to help Captain Hermann Wolff, the Deadhunter’s legendary leader, find his scattered family and fight to free Europe from the zombie apocalypse.

As you navigate the full-length story campaign either alone or with an ally, you’ll have access to an arsenal of authentic World War II weaponry, including sniper rifles, submachine guns, pistols and more. As one would expect, VR brings a new level of immersion to the action of the Zombie Army series, which will require you to “get to grips” with using your hands to aim your rifle, dual-wield your side arm with a submachine gun, master reloading drills, and tossing grenades.

Zombie Army VR is currently in development for the PlayStation VR2, Meta Quest 2, 3, Pro, Oculus Rift and PC headsets via Steam.
