Diablo 3: Reaper Of Souls For Console Teased

Posted in: Today's Chili

Diablo 3: Reaper Of Souls For Console TeasedLast week during gamescom 2013 in Germany, Blizzard took the wraps off their latest game, Diablo 3’s expansion, the Reaper of Souls. As it stands the game has been pegged for a release in 2014 according to its website, and while we guess that seems like a reasonable time to wait, what about consoles gamers? When, if at all, will they see the Reaper of Souls make its way onto the console platform? While Blizzard might have announced Diablo 3 for the console,  they have yet to announce if the expansion would arrive for the console as well.

The good news for console gamers is that the expansion is likely to arrive for consoles, although when exactly remains to be seen. This was teased by the game’s director, Josh Mosqueira, during an interview with Polygon. According to Mosqueira, “We’ve got Diablo 3 on PC, we released it and then a small team splintered off to work on Diablo for the current consoles. Now the team’s really focused on Reaper of Souls for PC […] So if you look at the past, you can probably infer what the future might bring.” This is probably as close to a confirmation as we can get, but it’s still somewhat good news nonetheless.

    Diablo 3: Reaper Of Souls Pegged For 2014 Release + Box Art

    Posted in: Today's Chili

    Diablo 3: Reaper Of Souls Pegged For 2014 Release + Box ArtYesterday Blizzard announced the new Diablo 3 expansion, Reaper of Souls, but unfortunately what the developer failed to mention was its release date. Well for those wondering when they might be able to get their hands on the game, it seems that if you were hoping for a 2013 release you might be disappointed as it looks like 2014 has been revealed to be its release. The date, along with the box art of the game, has been spotted at the bottom of the Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls page with the tagline reading, “Coming 2014”. Unfortunately no specific dates has been mentioned, meaning that we could expect to see it anytime from early 2014, to the end of 2014, but either way gamers will be in for a wait.

    Given that Blizzard has also been known to push back releases to fine tune and polish up their games to meet their quality standards, we wouldn’t be completely surprised if the 2014 date is a “flexible” one. In any case this is an expansion that we’re sure Diablo 3 gamers are looking forward to as not only does it introduce a new character class in the form of the Crusader, but Blizzard has also introduced a new act, a new final boss, along with a host of changes made to the looting system that hopefully will make the grind a little more bearable.

    Good news gamers! If you have been waiting for a Diablo 3 expansion, it is now official as Blizzard has formally announced that Reaper of Souls will be the new Diablo 3 expansion! The expansion will introduce a new Crusader class, bringing the total number of playable classes to 6. The Crusader has also been seen as the Paladin for Diablo 3 who will also be getting both melee and ranged skills, with Fist of the Heavens being one of them.

    The expansion will also see an increase of the level cap to 70 which is up from 60 for the original game. Unsurprisingly the expansion will also introduce a new act and will introduce a new final boss in the form of Malthael. So who is this Malthael character? (more…)

    Diablo 3 Reaper Of Souls Teased By Blizzard

    Posted in: Today's Chili

    Diablo 3 Reaper Of Souls Teased By BlizzardWith Diablo 3 having been released more than a year ago, there’s a good chance that gamers have probably completed the game several times over with more than one character, and while the Paragon System does add a bit more “content” to the game, an expansion would probably serve everyone best, wouldn’t it? Last we heard Blizzard could announce the Diablo 3 expansion at Gamescom and sure enough it looks like that will be happening.

    Blizzard has launched a site part of their Diablo 3 page with the title that reads “Reaper of Souls”, which some are taking to hint at the expansion’s name. Not much is known about this expansion as the page only features a quote from the Book of Tyrael saying, “Death, at least, shall spread its wings all over.” Pretty ominous stuff but either way sounds pretty exciting! Of course there’s no telling if this is the expansion for the game, or if could be a new novel, a trading card game, or whatever, but we’re definitely hoping for the best.

    In related news, Blizzard has also recently trademarked “The Dark Below” title which could be a World of Warcraft expansion after Mists of Pandaria.
