Blizzard has officially announced today that Diablo III will be released for the PC on 15th May, 2012.
Presales have already started, which allows fans to reserve their digital copies from the official website.
“After many years of hard work by our development team and months of beta testing by hundreds of thousands of dedicated players around the world, we’re now in the homestretch,” said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. “We look forward to putting the final polish on Diablo III over the next two months and delivering the ultimate action-RPG experience to gamers worldwide starting on May 15.”
Diablo 3 will be priced at £44.99 for both the retail version and the digital version sold directly from Blizzard. A special alabaster-white Collector’s Edition, exclusive to retail stores, will be sold for £69.99 and includes the full game on DVD, a behind-the-scenes Blu-ray/DVD two-disc set, the Diablo III soundtrack CD, a 208-page Art of Diablo III book, and a 4 GB USB soulstone (including full versions of Diablo II and Diablo II: Lord of Destruction) and corresponding Diablo skull base, as well as exclusive in-game content for Diablo III, World of Warcraft, and StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty.
