Diablo III Officially Launches in 2012

Blizzard has announced that Diablo III, the third installment in the popular Diablo franchise, under development for Windows and Macintosh, will be launched in early 2012. Blizzard will use the additional time to extend the Diablo III closed beta test, which began September 20, potentially adding more testers than initially projected. Players who have an active Battle.net account with any Blizzard game attached to it should visit Battle.net account management to opt in for a chance to participate in the beta test. Additional testing phases, as well as further details regarding the launch plans for the game, will be announced on the company's Diablo III community website.
