It can be played in both Campaign and Adventure more from the off. The Diablo 3 version of the class keeps most of the skills Diablo 2 players will remember, while heavily expanding and adapting the class to fit Diablo 3's combat style and freeform character development. It's also emblematic of the darker, more Gothic mood of the earlier Diablo games, as opposed to the almost cheerfully over-the-top Diablo 3. Pitched as a jumping-on point for new players (or perhaps those who never moved over from the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions), the Eternal Collection has a standard price of £54.99 (€69.99), but will be available to Xbox Live Gold and PlayStation Plus subscribers at an introductory price of £29.99 (€39.99).īlizzard says that the Necromancer is one of the characters from its classic games whose return has been most requested among fans: a dark sorcerer, or Priest or Rathma according to Diablo lore, that can summon and command an army of undead minions. In addition, Blizzard will release a new digital edition of the game for consoles - Diablo 3: Eternal Collection - which includes the base game, Reaper of Souls and Rise of the Necromancer. PC and Mac users will need to have the Reaper of Souls expansion installed (Diablo 3 isn't available on current consoles without it). The add-on will be available for PC, Mac, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of the game, priced at £12.99 (€14.99). Blizzard has announced that the Rise of the Necromancer pack for Diablo 3, which adds the much-loved Necromancer character class from Diablo 2 to the younger game, will be released next week on 27th June.
