Blizzard Entertainment and GOG.COM have teamed up to rerelease select classic Blizzard games, beginning with Diablo®, Blizzard’s legendary 1996 action role-playing game that introduced players to the harsh—and deeply rewarding—world of Sanctuary.

The original Diablo® is available now via digital distribution for the first time ever on GOG.COM. Players looking for the authentic Diablo experience can play the game as it was in 1996, with period-appropriate 20 FPS SVGA graphics, and the ability to matchmake through the classic version of Blizzard’s Battle.net® online-gaming service.

Blizzard and GOG.COM have collaborated on an updated version of the game, which includes out-of-the-box Windows 10 compatibility, and a host of bug fixes. Players can choose either version of the game from a launcher.

tinyE: Why doesn't GOG release any more good old games, just more of this new indie crap!

lukaszthegreat: its hard to get the licences. GOG would love to release all of those classics but if the right holders don't allow nothing can be done.

This is excellent. I have so many great memories of this and it's wonderful music.

It is a shame, that there will be no Hellfire or Diablo II.

I have it on CD also I have Diablo II battle chest on Disc as well. So Meh, Would be a good backup to have if anything happened to the disc bought the discs brand new for only $7.99, So don't know why you want around AUD $14 for the same thing.

If somebody has time, could you see what page number Diablo is on under the "Bestselling (All Time)" arrangment of the catalog?
Posted March 08, 2019
I own this game already on disk.. at least 2 copies.. one I bought at a thrift store...

Did I buy this yet again?

YES!!!

Having it DRM free and not having to hunt for a CD and having it installed on my computer.

YES..

As one of the first posters said, "This is an example of printing money"... I agree.

They got my money!!!

I bet GOG is going to sell the hell out of a 20+year old game and give some extra money to Blizzard.

Hopefully they follow it up with Diablo II

amok: you mean it is not legit?
No, meaning it will sell a lot of copies because the game is so popular.

Somebody pinch me and tell me it's not an early April's fool joke?
I thought it would be a cold day in hell before Blizzard will release anything here.
