It's also emblematic of the darker, more Gothic mood of the earlier Diablo games, as opposed to the almost cheerfully over-the-top Diablo 3. Pitched as a jumping-on point for new players (or perhaps those who never moved over from the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions), the Eternal Collection has a standard price of £54.99 (€69.99), but will be available to Xbox Live Gold and PlayStation Plus subscribers at an introductory price of £29.99 (€39.99).īlizzard says that the Necromancer is one of the characters from its classic games whose return has been most requested among fans: a dark sorcerer, or Priest or Rathma according to Diablo lore, that can summon and command an army of undead minions. In addition, Blizzard will release a new digital edition of the game for consoles - Diablo 3: Eternal Collection - which includes the base game, Reaper of Souls and Rise of the Necromancer. PC and Mac users will need to have the Reaper of Souls expansion installed (Diablo 3 isn't available on current consoles without it). The add-on will be available for PC, Mac, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of the game, priced at £12.99 (€14.99).

The Rise of the Necromancer pack unearths a trove of new content, including the Necromancer hero class and two additional character slots. Return to the mortal realms with deadly new powers of blood, bone and essence.
