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.

gogtrial34987: Currently on the 9th spot on page 9 (out of 62), at 50 items per page.
Let's see how swiftly it'll rise.

joppo: I don't think it will rise much farther than it is right now (7th at 7th page) for the next several weeks
9 hours later it's on spot #22 on page 6.

I figure it'll rise to the top of page 5 by the end of the weekend.

thebream: Nice release, heres hoping other classics like Warcraft 1,2 and 3 and StarCraft make it here.

Linko64: Given Starcraft sells Starcraft HD, i doubt they would send SC here.
Dang I would buy it if it got released on Gog.

BuryTomorrow: Quick question to the ones that bought it: Does it suport 3440x1440 Ultrawide?

Thanks in advance!
Probably in that the game SCALES to that size, but the resolution is still the old 620x480, just running through upscaling filters to make it look less pixelated.

Glad to see I'm not the only one checking this regularly :-D, specially since I'm not even interested in this game...

But here's hoping that high sales help bring other Blizzard classics here and, why not, make some other companies realize there's still money to be collected from their forgotten/lost good OLD games catalog with relatively very little effort.

LootHunter: First StarCraft IS free.
But NOT DRM-Free. I'm ready to pay a bit for this option. Even for a free game. Yeap, the Force is strong in me.

Paying for ownership is good in my book.

Klumpen0815: It's just way too expensive.
I guess that is one problem with releasing "classic games". People expect them to be dirt cheap. Not that I am any different, just an observation.

My Rogues disarm spell isn't working.

Yeah, I can't believe how much I have forgotten.

I guess this disproves the old adage, once you learn how to ride a bike you never forget.
