Zomprd isn't going too far off to the 4 and 8K crazyness territories and is sticking to 1080p HD for now, which is ambitious enough, seeing as he has to rebuild the entire game from scratch, using several AI upscaling techniques. Redditor zomprd has taken several steps in the long road to remastering the classic, with some impressive images and animations so far. For a game that had to be developed from scratch, Vicarious Visions has done a pretty stellar job.As we've recently found out that an official Diablo 2 Remaster is very unlikely/almost impossible, this fan-made project is all the more relevant, despite the very early stages of development. However, there is no telling just which of these elements will make it to Diablo 2 Resurrected's final version. The character creation screen seems to be quite close to the original. We even get to see glimpses of Andariel and Mephisto. Enemies and bosses alike get new character models.


Even the skill tree has been remade from the ground up.Īs far as the actual Diablo 2 Resurrected gameplay is concerned, everything ranging from the floor to skill projectiles gets a fresh coat of paint. The storage and inventory UI get a slight redesign too.

The health and mana bar still occupy their position on the left and right corner of the screen, respectively. Skill icons are also a lot closer together, with the stat icon occupying the space in between then. Diablo 2 Resurrected reimagines it from a minimalist perspective, cutting down on the obnoxiously large stamina bar. While there was nothing inherently wrong with the original Diablo 2's HUD, it seems a bit dated in the current year. It appears that one of the users managed to record some gameplay footage and has uploaded it on their YouTube channel. However, Blizzard has opened up a technical alpha program for it. Diablo 2 Resurrected does not have an official launch date yet, despite being announced at BlizzConline some time ago.
