Diablo 3: Ultimate Evil Edition Release Date Confirmed! Play As The Mighty Crusader, Find Out About The Mystic And Raise Your Characters To Level 70!

Diablo 3: Ultimate Evil Edition has been confirmed for release on all consoles, old and new. The RPG has also been given a release date of August.

Blizzard confirmed the platform details and added that you'll be able to transfer your saves from the PS3 to the PS4 version and from the Xbox 360 to the Xbox One version. The Ultimate Evil Edition edition will support four-player co-op and online multiplayer.

In addition, a new mode dubbed the Apprentice mode will boost the power of low-level player skills to match those of their higher-level co-op buddies. The Ultimate Evil Edition will also contain a mail system that you can use to send items to one another. Player Gifts will allow you to specify treasure mails for a certain friend and would contain a rare treasure.

"The Ultimate Evil Edition brings Reaper of Souls to console gamers for the first time, and wraps all of the content, features, and updates we've released for Diablo III into one epic package," said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. "Whether you're a veteran of the crusade against the forces of evil on PC or are just stepping foot into Sanctuary for the first time, there's never been a better time to experience Diablo III from the comfort of your couch."

In Reaper of Souls, the five valiant heroes from Diablo III-Barbarian, Demon Hunter, Monk, Witch Doctor, and Wizard-are joined by a new champion: the Crusader. Clad head to toe in fortified armor, the Crusader is an unstoppable force of righteous destruction who channels the power of divine wrath to visit retribution upon his demonic quarry.

All in all, the game will feature the following new mechanics:

Adventure Mode: A new game mode that gives players the freedom to go anywhere and slay anything

Bounties: Randomized objectives that reward players in new ways for exploring Sanctuary

Nephalem Rifts: Fully randomized dungeons offering endless replayability and heaps of loot

Level Cap to 70: Formidable new spells and abilities that take players to new heights of power

The Mystic: A powerful new artisan who provides heroes with loot-customization options

The game will be released August 19, priced $39.99 on Xbox 360 and PS3, and $59.99 on Xbox One and PS4.
