Diablo fans are no doubt now rejoicing after hearing Blizzard publicize their plans for Diablo 3 at the Worldwide Invitational in Paris. Coupled with this a website full of concept art, audio and video clips, story info and images has been uploaded to view: http://eu.blizzard.com/diablo3/

The Story:

One of the biggest problems fans of the series have had with a sequel is if it could be plausible. With Diablo, Baal and Mephisto all killed where could the story go from there? Well Blizzard has released an eerie video teaser giving away some clues. The video is narrated by a young woman, as she talks you are shown shots of the Sanctuary, what looks like to be the angel Tyrael, a comet crashing into the landscape and lastly Diablo. Of course the teaser is extremely captivating and reminiscent of the epic Diablo 2 videos but I personally think the whole comet rising evil spirits sounds slightly cliché and hopefully more depth to the storyline will be revealed soon.

ADMIN NOTE: The development of Mythos was suspended by flagship studios due to financial issues.

With World of Warcraft top priority on Blizzard’s list the likelihood of Diablo 3 seems to be near nonexistent. Nether the less, fans of the series may be in for a treat as a game currently in beta looks to be the next best thing.

I’ve yet to play Mythos but judging by the screenshots it appears to have many similarities to Diablo such as; the perspective, interface, items and the fantasy style world that it’s set in. The game is under development by Flagship Studios (a company founded by the original developers of Diablo) and should be released sometime this year. The game will have both single and multiplayer capabilities and is expected to be free to download and play.

The game is sure to be a hit, not with just Diablo fans but anyone into the whole action RPG genre, if that’s you keep an eye on Mythos.
