Diablo III: Release Date!

Been waiting for Diablo III? I have! Diablo II was a really fun game, and since seeing some of the in game footage… I’ve been looking forward to find out the release date.

There seems to be a rumour going around that the game is to be released on Christmas eve. I imagine if this happened, there would be a huge rush of people trying to get it before christmas day. This leaves me wondering if it could be true. Of course, it might be released on platforms such as steam aswell, who allow you to buy the game as a digital download – no waiting in line for the last copy there, just a download… Although if that does happen, you might want to follow the guide to downloading from Steam that I have in my post about Crash Course. The servers will probably be hit pretty hard.

Here’s what the article I found had to say:

Blizzard Entertainment’s upcoming dungeon destroyer Diablo III is said to be coming on December 24 according to a rumour on the website kaputik.com where Associates working on a Diablo 3 game design have supplied the following information.

The online beta multiplayer trial version is currently set for an 11th September release.

The final version is to be released before Christmas – 24th December 2009.

The rumored specs for the PC and Mac:

PC:

Operating System: Windows XP/ Vista

Processor: 1.4GHz or higher CPU.

RAM: 1Gb or more.

Diablo III

Get your christmas hampers and turkeys ready a day early, christmas is coming early!

Of course… this is just a rumor, so don’t get too excited yet… Although I am getting my hopes up!
