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.

The problem with Hellfire is that the rights to it are a tangled mess as I understand.

Is it just me, or does GOG no longer release any Good Old Games? WHERE ARE THE OLD GAMES, GAWG?

Serisously though, how ever did you manage to secure this one? Great release!

It would be perfect if it actually had regional pricing.... oh well, I guess you can't have everything.

Wha--

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

*picks jaw from the floor* I still have that CD somewhere. *wipes tears of nostalgia*

...

> Win 10 compatible.

Somebody pinch me to make sure I'm not hallucinating.

Happy early March 8 to me! :)

Aaahhh! Fresh meat!


Thanks for bringing this here! This is an awesome addition.

But before I buy it, just to be on the safe side, a question: are the original multiplayer options (LAN and direct connection via TCP/IP) still in the game? Or is a battlenet account (or Galaxy) mandatory for multiplayer in this "updated" version?

Woah. I actually did a double take. Thank you and congratulations to GOG and Blizzard! I bet this is huge day for them too.

Original multi options are still available, of course. :)

Too bad that the Hellfire expansion is not included in this version. That would make it worth the asking price but €8.89 just for the base game is a bit steep.

Great! Bought!

And to those who say it's not fun to play any more, wrong! I completed it a couple of years back, basically twice because my character was overwhelmed in one of the last levels and I had to restart, and I had tons of fun.
Posted March 07, 2019
Wohoo, congrats! Didn't think this was gonna happen!
Posted March 07, 2019
I own multiple copies of this game already. I bought it now to add my vote for more Blizzard games here. Thanks Blizzard and GOG.

MMLN: IIRC Hellfire was an official expansion made by Sierra, which is now part of Activision as well. Please correct me if I am wrong.
You're def right about it being official - I can't remember who made it - that'd be funny if it were Sierra - now I want to look it up!
