One of our Blizzcon agents, Tyr, reports nothing of new Diablo content on the press CD… aside from five screenshots showing a Diablo 3 in-game item granted by the purchase of Overwatch: Origins. (Which is basically the Collector’s Edition version, with extra skins and other digital loots.)
Blizzard has posted the promised Patch 2.4 preview, which they said (during the Blizzcon panel) would be live for testing on the PTR next week. There’s a ton of new stuff, including revamped item sets, dozens of new legendary items, new stash space earned via the Season Journey, new tilesets and dungeons, tons of new bounties, and much more.
It was depressing to see that Diablo 3 didn’t get much of a mention in the opening ceremony; it really does feel like the bastard child Blizzard wants to keep locked in the cellar. Despite it being pretty much ignored at the start of the event, the Blood and Treasure panel did bring a load of new information for Diablo 3 patch 2.4 and there’s a lot of changes and new content coming. No hint of an expansion at all but perhaps Blizzard has had a rethink about how they want to introduce content and how often based on the additional content being added in patches.
