I'm not much for remasters, for me they bring very little. Also Blizzard has explicitly said they do not have any plans to remaster or -make Diablo 2. But they also stated that they have no plans of bringing Diablo 3 for Nintendo Switch yet here we are. They also have said "Multiple diablo projects" to be in the works, this and the huge demand for Diablo 2 remaster could mean it is indeed coming.
As for Diablo 2 remake, that could be cool, yes. Maybe then I would be inclined to trying D2 as well.
The nature of Metro's tweets makes me question their reliability. It is true that he leaked Ashe quite accurately, but he might just be riding on that reputation.
If I had to guess what'll happen, is that IF Diablo: Immortal is released before Blizzcon, they are revealing D2 remastered, and a demo will be playable there. However if Immortal isn't released, that might be the playable thing they'll have in the showfloor.

Wait, what? When have they explicitly said Diablo 2 wont be getting a remaster?
Yeah, this was posted elsewhere earlier, but thanks for the picture. It's an ad in Gamestar, right?
For those who can't read German and want to know - it's a full-page ad in a German monthly game magazine (most likely Gamestar) for the post-Blizzcon release of a Diablo artwork book. The part in red simply says "With over 500 artworks from Diablo, Diablo II, Diablo III, and Diablo IV this book presents various remarkable pieces of art that were created for the iconic ARPG of Blizzard Entertainment."
This is going to be an INSANE BLIZZCON, best ever!
The good thing is, it's gonna be insane one way or another. Either the announcements are gonna be terrible and it's gonna be a riot of Hong Kong & meme questions or there gonna be amazing. I'm not actually sure if i'm more excited for them to announce stuff or not XD
Also Blizzard has explicitly said they do not have any plans to remaster or -make Diablo 2.
When did they say that? Do you have an actual source that quotes them somewhere? Because the only major quotes I've seen are from David Brevik:
"I can say from a technical standpoint that it's going to be extremely difficult. That you will not be able to capture it exactly the way it was," original Diablo creator David Brevik said in a 2018 IGN interview. "The number one reason is because of the shape of the screen. Because the screens back then were 800x600 and largely square, and now they're not, they're 16:9 and 16:10, we did a lot of tricks."
Even in this years Activision earnings call Bobby "give me your money" Kotick said:
"At Activision we have seen great results from remastering some of these beloved games over the last couple of years. They are obviously having a big impact on our bottom line and a real impact there, but I'd say what's really important is that it's reaffirming the enduring nature of these franchises for us. We think there's a lot of IP in there the fans are going to want to experience again. So now what I'd say stay tuned for some future announcements."

Naw, you're right, it will only be 4, unless they reveal Wc4 which would be freaking amazing.
I was hoping for the SC FPS, but they split that team for OW2 and D4.

Things change, after Blizzcon 2018, they now know that people want it, so it is probably one of the unannounced projects that was hired for this year.
Dude blizzard has explained nothing team working quote : Blizzard says that they are not currently working on Warcraft 4. They are, however, working on the remastered version of Warcraft 3, which is called Warcraft 3: Reforged ( Blizzcon 2018 ) . . Warcraft IV required actually 1 new team development . Classic team members have just explained cannot work on other games except classic games because small team of developmentand and sometimes need to kidnapped designers from other team develpment. Gently Stop to believe to Flyers Donkeys. Warcraft 4 doesn't exist right now. RTS required years to develop and for now nothing team working on WCIV ........... And i want rember you , Director creative The Witcher and Cyberpunk from 1 year work for Blizzard , unofficiale project can be easily spin-off diablo. And some olds jobs posting Unofficial Project quote 6 moths ago : required passion for 3d person game -Action games . sorry you fail No RTS Passio required

What are you even trying to say?
Warcraft IV doesn't exit easy. Exist only for sad fanboys warcraft 3. Is not Warcraft the franchising going to die but Diablo .......
What would you be more hyped for, a Diablo 2 Remaster or Diablo 4?

LOL, they will redeem this year or be forgotten. I prefer to see the first case happening. Blizzard gave so much to everyone of us.
I expect no less than 5 game reveals.

I assume that includes expansions, yeah?
WoW's next expansion, Overwatch 2, Diablo 4, D2 Remastered... and what else? A Hearthstone expansion?

Ya a Battlefield style Starcraft would have been cool in my eyes. Too bad.
You're a wizard Harry.....
I want both of these games. I'm afraid to hope for anything so I'll wait til Blizzcon and believe it when I see it.
If we count WoW and HS, these will be 5 at minimum.
If we count new games only, then 3 at minimum - D4 (+ gameplay), D2 HD (+ demo) and OW2 (game engine footage/cinematic only).
So, if OW2 is indeed like Borderlands, this will be another win for us since such game can serve for new D4 ideas.
It seems to me the aRPG scene will BOOM in 2020 with PoE 4.0 and games from Minecraft & LOL makers, and in 2021 with D4.
The dream may finally happen - an aRPG game to be the new Twitch KING.
