Diablo 3 PS4 Release Date Rumoured To Be Out This September With New Social Features! Sites reported that a new consumer survey from Blizzard, about Diablo III PS4, is being conducted and features a question that can only indicate a spoiler: "How interested would you be in playing a second expansion to Diablo III?" The possibility of another Diablo III expansion after the recently released "Reaper of Souls" has been a topic of interest for serious gamers, and this consumer survey might lead us to believe that Blizzard is indeed considering it. The "Reaper of Souls" sold nearly 3 million copies in its launch week a month ago, making it the hottest game in the market, but the Diablo 3 PS4 release will confirm if it is still number one.
In a report by cinamablend, Blizzard revealed that PS4 version of Diablo 3 isn't going to be the same game as it will be equipped with new social features. Speaking in PAX East, Blizzard explained what makes Diablo 3 PS4 worth buying: "Players can help each other gear up. Every time you get a legendary item, your friend has a chance of receiving their own. They can choose which character on their account will get this randomized gift. Presumably the stats rolled for this item will conform to the class of the specific character - a standard occurrence since Diablo 3 Patch 2.0. Players can also mail unwanted items to each other.
You and your friends can also fight the same enemies even if you're not in a co-op match. With the PS4 version's Nemesis System, a monster that slays you can hop in a portal and pop up later in a friend's game. If they kill it, they get a reward. If the monsters kills them, they'll jump into another one of your friends' games. The monster gets stronger each time it wipes out a hero. Blizzard also wants to make it easier for players to team up with their friends. A new Apprentice Mode makes it possible for a low-level character to join a higher-level companion on his adventure. The low level hero's stats will be boosted so they can survive the higher level enemies. Both players will get appropriate levels of experience and items, with the low-level character getting a little more to help him catch up.
The PS4 version, dubbed the "Ultimate Evil Edition," will include the improvements seen in the PS3 and Xbox 360 editions. The user interface has been redesigned for easier navigation with a controller. In the case of the PS4, the menus can be navigated with a touchscreen as well. The player can also avoid danger with a new dodge ability. Unlike the PC and Mac version of D3, the console editions don't require a persistent Internet connection."
Blizzard still didn't disclose Diablo 3 PS4 release date on the conference, but Air Herald got a hold of a Romanian retailer who revealed that the sought-after game is recently listed to be out by September 25.
