In a post on Blizzard’s official Diablo III forum, Community Manager Vaeflare has confirmed that the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 versions of the game will not support cross-platform play with their PC counterpart.
Vaeflare also discussed the method of controlling the game for the console versions, putting to rest any hope of keyboard and mouse support. There are also no current plans for the PC version of Diablo III to support controllers either.
Who says a dud game can't have a video game comeback?
Cyberpunk and No Man's Sky have to be up there. We're lucky and cursed, equally, to have games that can be updated now. For folks old enough to remember the Sega/SNES into PS1 and even 2 eras, if a game came out that was half baked (*cough*Angel of Darkness*cough*) that was it, no redemption. At the same time, having the option for updates shouldn't be an excuse for half assing games.
Diablo III still works on modern PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and remains hugely playable a decade after initial release.
Are you comparing a continuously improved 10+ years old masterpiece with the... beta of an unreleased game?
Diablo III: Season 28 brings with it the Altar of Rites, an altar full of unlockable bonuses and potions that will require the gathering of tons of resources. One of things needed is the Staff of Herding, which also unlocks the famous Cow Level known as Whimsyshire. Here's how to craft that staff, for those that either have forgotten, or have never completed it.
ok so what about the ps4 and ps3 version will those be cross platform play with each other or seperate?
this is something thats starting to sound like i should wait till it drops in price a little bit like 40 or 30 dollars
From fans, I've heard bad things about Diablo III. Despite the general praise from critics... I don't know what to believe!! It's making the decision of whether to get this or not with a PS4 difficult.
That's a huge missed opportunity on blizzards part.. they should have been both able to play with each other.
We already know Sony allows this.
I was hoping it did, many of my friends play only on console. :(
Just get it on PC... it will be cheaper and it runs fine on low spec machines.
It's made for PC's so its meant for PC gaming.
