Diablo 3 teaser site hints at possible Reaper of Souls expansion

4.5
A new teaser page on the official Diablo 3 site looks to point towards an expansion called 'Reaper of Souls.' The page shows an image of a looming, shadowy entrance, along with a quote from the Book of Tyrael, which reads "Death, at last, shall spread its wings over all." The page itself is titled Reaper of Souls, and text at the bottom of it indicates Blizzard trademarked that term, something TMView confirms happened just yesterday. Also, the image has the filename "d3x_teaser_en_us.jpg," the 'x' there suggestive on its own.

We know a Diablo 3 expansion has been planned for some time, but this teaser page adds to suspicions that more info will be forthcoming soon, most likely at Gamescom later this month. In a recent earnings call, Blizzard President Michael Morhaime said the company would share "Diablo-related news" at the event, while invites for its press conference there teased a "special announcement." Blizzard also trademarked 'The Dark Below' recently; that now seems likelier to be related to World of Warcraft or something else entirely.

It's worth noting the teaser page quotes Tyrael's companion book for the game, which is due to be released on October 1 and promises "never-before-known secrets" about the Diablo universe. The teaser also comes just ahead of the action-RPG's arrival on PS3 and Xbox 360, set for September 3, while the PS4 receives the game sometime next year.

This game was 100% a piece of junk on the PC, Blizzard used the PC users as basically beta testers, only difference is that we payed 60$ for a game the lacked loads of shit. Now they release a console version that is getting stuff that the PC won't have for another like 4 months after the console release, I would suggest not buying this game, because it is a Pay to own and a pay to win. Good story but boring and un-rewarding gameplay.

Boar Diablo 3 was a disappointment for me, don't know bout anyone else.


I played the open beta for it, and was so psyched to play as DH, but at the time my computer couldn't run it, so I got massive frame drops, so that pretty much made me not wanting to play the game anymore.
But since I've built my computer, I've been playing it like I would have when it released.


Its a pretty good game. But im not really into it

_Bale Never heard of the game, but Im going to try it though.


It's a PC game, if your 16 and below and haven't played PC you won't know what it is.

At a guess of watching my bro play it's like Skyrim?
