Get a special Necromancer that you have grown Diablo II with for years? There is good news: Diablo II resurrected have them imported to continue commanding armies of the dead more than 20 years later.
Available on consoles and PC later this year, the new remaster will still work with players’ original save files, Blizzard confirmed in an interview with IGN Middle East yesterday“Yes! Keep your old save files,” Diablo II: Resurrected said game producer Matthew Cederquist. “When we were working on [the remaster], we wondered if the old save files would work, so we kind of put it in, and it worked! So yes, your local single player save files will be transferred. “
While the remaster is coming to PS4, Xbox One, and Switch, as well as next-gen consoles, importing your saved data will obviously only work with the PC version. In addition to a visual revision of the game, Resurrected also supports cross-progression and a shared supply between all your characters. Players who want to keep the game’s original look and feel can also switch between the remaster and legacy version.
I’ve never gotten too deep into Blizzard’s loot dungeon crawler myself, but I know people whose entire lives used it up in the early years. Getting the chance to revisit those monuments easily by clicking the mouse is sure to be both a blessing and a curse. Cederquist said, “[When it worked], we were like, ‘okay, that’s the best feature ever’. “
