Diablo® III

Below you'll find a list of hotfixes for the month of April which address various gameplay and service issues affecting Diablo III.

As foretold in ancient Horadric texts, Diablo III is coming soon to the PS3. The launch date still has yet to be announced, but you can prepare for it now AND receive this exclusive Infernal Helm in-game item in the process, preordering Diablo III at your local retailer.

There are quite a number of set pieces and Legendary armor items in Diablo III, over a hundred and fifty, in fact! Worn together, many of these sturdy pieces of armor can convey a wide variety of perks and set bonuses to a daring hero. But more importantly: many of them also make striking fashion statements.

For all the long-term planners out there, we wanted to give you a heads up about a few of the contests we’re planning for BlizzCon® 2013. It’s going to be another big year for community creativity—a few of your favorite contests are returning, and a very special prize will be awarded to the first-place winner of the BlizzCon 2013 Costume Contest.

Below you'll find the preliminary PTR patch notes for 1.0.8. Please note that this isn't the final version of the 1.0.8 notes and that some changes may not be documented or described in full detail.

Patch 1.0.8 is currently in development and now available for testing on the PTR. To learn about all the latest changes, please see the official PTR patch notes. For information on how to participate and copy over characters, read on below!

We know some of you have burning questions for our developers about Diablo III, its design, and the philosophy behind certain game changes. So, to help douse the flames of inquiry, we're introducing Ask the Devs, an informal Q&A series which we'll be hosting monthly in the official forums.

Mark your calendars—a Blizzard is coming to Southern California! Tickets for BlizzCon^® 2013 will go on sale in two batches on Thursday, April 25 at 04:00 CEST and Saturday, April 27 at 19:00 CEST through the official BlizzCon website.

In sitting down to plan out features for patch 1.0.8 we decided as a team that we really wanted to improve the multiplayer co-op experience.

A bold demon hunter risks becoming her own worst enemy while tracking down her sinister prey… A haunted barbarian returns to his shattered homeland to face a harrowing past… Diablo III: Heroes Rise, Darkness Falls are stories from the world of Sanctuary, a land of mystery and dread that serves as the backdrop for Blizzard Entertainment's award-winning Diablo video game series.

We’re excited to announce Blizzard’s newest game today, Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft, a free-to-play strategy card game that’s deceptively simple and insanely fun, coming to Windows®, Mac®, and the iPad®!
