The console version comes with custom tailored for the new platforms. We can look forward to gamepad-driven action, with a dynamic camera perspective which puts your hero in the front and center. Additionally we can also look forward to an all-new user interface. Either you can team up with other players or you can combat the forces of evil all by your own. Either you can cooperate via split-screen or online over PSN or Xbox Live. Parties can be found both locally but also online.
Pre-order any of the console versions will grant you a bonus: the Infernal Helm, which grants an experience point boost to any character who wears it, accelerating their progression as they rise in power. Certain retailers will also offer limited-edition preorder bonuses—check with your local retailer for further information.
“Playing Diablo III on a big screen with your friends brings a whole new level of intensity to the game, and with all of the control and interface adaptations we’ve made, it’s extremely fun to play on PS3™ and Xbox 360,” said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. “In addition to the fine-tuning we’ve done for the console versions, we’re also including major content and design updates we’ve made to the PC version over the past year, so players can expect an epic Diablo gaming experience when the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions launch in September.”
