From Jason Schreier:

Whoops, Forbes broke the embargo on some really rad news: Diablo III is coming to Switch this year


I can't open Kotaku at work, but the article is there.

there you go

The day that was prophesied by a light switch is finally upon us: Diablo III is coming to Nintendo Switch this year.

The news was meant to be announced tomorrow, but appeared today on Forbes in a post that’s since been deleted. Diablo III Eternal Collection on Switch will include the original game, the Reaper of Souls expansion, the Rise of the Necromancer pack, and all updates the game has received thus far. You’ll also be able to get an armor set that makes you look like Ganondorf from The Legend of Zelda, because I guess Ganondorf would be mad about the devil muscling in on his “crown prince of evil” turf.

The Switch version will also let you play multiplayer in a number of different configurations, from four-player local co-op on the same machine, to four-player co-op on separate Switches without an internet connection, to fully online co-op, to having some players local and others connected over the internet.

It’ll cost $59.99 and will be out sometime later this year. Fun sidenote: this will be the first Blizzard game on a Nintendo platform in 15 years.

It's that portability tax

I have the same problem with Doom. on sale it's literally $10 on PC and $15 on Xbox/PSN.

40 bucks at least on the Switch for a version that looks even worse than the PC version on the absolute lowest quality.

Considering what you run into online there don't appear to be too many grown ups playing.

I really hope this is not the main diablo project that was going to be announced at blizzcon. Why would I want to buy that bad game again?

$60 for a game that's been out for over 6 years on a wide variety of platforms?

What?

I can't think of any triple A title that is sold for full price more than 2-3 years after release these days.

6 years is almost a whole console life cycle.

I don’t plan on getting this at all simply because I already played it when it first launched and on a 100x more powerful machine.

I don’t really get why y’all are surprised though it’s $60. Same game but with Nintendo stuff in it!
