Blizzard’s Franchises Celebrate Diablo’s Anniversary

Diablo is now twenty years old, and Blizzard doesn’t leave this anniversary without a celebration.

In Blizzard‘s other games, you will find some events or goodies related to the 1996 classic game. Diablo III‘s is the biggest one, as The Darkening of Tristam allows players to revisit the Cathedral from the first game. Here’s the entire list of the events, nicked from the press release:

Diablo III:

Recapture the feeling of your first play through of the original Diablo with The Darkening of Tristram tribute event. Venture through a reimagined version of the original cathedral in Diablo III and keep an eye out for some familiar items.

Heroes of the Storm:

The battle for the High Heavens continues, and a new Diablo-themed portrait is up for grabs! Can you emerge victorious on this hectic new brawl map?

Hearthstone:

In this Tavern Brawl, a hooded stranger awaits, holding a grim deck in his hands. Will you unravel the secrets surrounding this dark wanderer?

Overwatch:

Bring the battle for Sanctuary into the fight for the future with in-game sprays representing your favourite Diablo III classes–along with a new player icon modelled after the Lord of Terror!

StarCraft II:

Put the Lord of Terror to work for you with a Diablo-themed worker portrait.

World of Warcraft:

Strange things are afoot in the world of Azeroth as denizens of Sanctuary cross over into an unfamiliar world.
