Diablo 2 Remastered Official

There is a series of screenshots appeared online showing the new looks of Diablo 2 Remastered 2019. However, Blizzard’s official Diablo 2 remastered release date is not yet confirmed.

On the other hand, it seems that the fans of the game have been itching so much to finally see the new looks of Diablo 2 remaster. As a matter of fact, there is a creative Reddit user who posted screenshots on the said platform. These screenshots show how the current AI upscaling would affect the game while using AI Generative Adversarial Network also called as ESRGAN.

The name of the Redditor is Indoflaven. Moreover, he utilized the Manga109 model for ESRGAN just to upscale the screenshots taken from the original Diablo 2 that has basic 1024X786 resolution. The result of his experiment is apparently great. As a matter of fact, it excellently portrays the potential of the old classic’s remastered version.

But the question is, will we ever see the same thing on the fresh Diablo 2? Well, we hope that Blizzard actually considers these creative screenshots as well as the possibilities for a remaster.

If you happen to be curious about the screenshots from Indoflaven, we have attached below one screenshot as a sample. See if you’ll be impressed as well.

Diablo 2

This epic game was launched the year 2000 for Personal Computers. Consequently, it managed to reach about 2 Million sold copies in as fast as two months. Aside from that, many gamers consider the sequel as the best Diablo installment up to this date. And on 2001, Lord of Destruction was launched which is an expansion of the game.

The said expansion brings one new act, two new classes, new weapons, monsters, and so much more on the game. In addition to that, players in the Lord of Destruction return in Barbarian Highlands of the North in order to follow the path of Baal. The said character is known as the last of the Prime Evils.

Apparently, the success of the game is really overwhelming. This is according to Mike Morhaime way back 2000. Morhaime is actually known as the former president as well as co-founder of Blizzard. He also added that Blizzard is looking forward into enhancing the depth and gameplay of the Game. This is through introducing fresh and new character classes as well as different areas to explore.

Final Thoughts

We will only see the real look of the upcoming Diablo 2 remastered 2019 once it has officially roll-out. So for now, don’t expect too much about the different appearing news as well as the unconfirmed leaks about the upcoming version of the game. The screenshots that appeared are quite creative yet it is only a way to give us something to look forward to in the next few months. Better brace yourselves for the real thing.
