Diablo III Officially Coming to Consoles

We’ve seen plenty of hints that Blizzard was considering a console port of Diablo III; most notably, when the company actually stated that they were considering it. Since then, there have been a few job postings and other indications that the game was being developed, but it wasn’t until today that we heard some sort of official confirmation.

Taking to Twitter, Blizzard community manager Bashiok confirmed the console version’s existence by announcing that Josh Mosqueira, who helmed development on Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War, would be leading the console Diablo project.


Of course, since this is Blizzard we’re talking about, details are relatively scarce. We know that Diablo III is in development for consoles, but we don’t know which consoles or when. All we can assume is that the game will show up on PS3 and/or Xbox 360, and it will be sometime in the next twenty years.


Either way, it’s pretty great news for the console community – we’ll finally get a chance to enjoy this Diablo thing everyone loves so much!


Are you picking up Diablo III on your PC, or waiting for the console version?

i loved diablo 1 back on Windows 95!!!

D2 totally destroyed my life.

Then they released Diablo 1 on PSX....
I still liked it lol.

That being said, if the consoles have connectivity to the PC servers I'm all for it 100%. Go for it Blizzard.

If it's the case, it will only have connectivity between PCs and Xbox. Unless the allow PS3 to connect the live feature (that will never happen) or if the make the same battle net accessible for PS3 / XBox and PCs... but I still doubt that will happen.

Wouldn't really work that ways if anything it would only be the PS3-PC Connection cause blizz will want to use there own servers. Thats the same reason FF14 is not on Xbox.

WOOH! :lol:

hope that you can still use real money on console version or it'll be a big flop. We all want $100/hr all around.

I think I'll enjoy this on my TV as well as my PC, switching should be 1 2 3 I think personally. I hope blizz thinks so too.

"and it will be sometime in the next twenty years." -LOL

i would bet that it was not blizzard who thought porting a game to consoles was a good idea...
look at how Skyrim did. PC is nearly flawless now and both consoles are unplayable. and PC suffers due to their console oriented UI.
