Forbes leak: Diablo III coming to Switch in 2018 with exclusive content, $59.99

The article is now deleted (was here) but thanks, Reddit

The action-RPG from Blizzard, which launched on PC way back in 2012 and subsequently released on consoles, will launch later this year. The Switch version, called the 'Eternal Collection' includes the Reaper of Souls and Rise of the Necromancer expansions plus all the other added content the game has seen and costs $59.99.

Diablo III on the Nintendo Switch will also feature special Nintendo exclusive in-game bonuses: the Legend of Ganondorf cosmetic armor set, Tri-Force portrait frame, Chicken pet, and Echoes of the Mask cosmetic wings.

The Nintendo Switch version of the game can be played in several different ways, including docked or on-the-go.

Up to 4 players can play together on a single Switch.

Up to 4 players can play on 4 different Switch units wirelessly without an internet connection.

Players can also team up online with the Nintendo Switch Online service (which launches in September.)

There will be cloud saving support for the game as well.

I would love this on Switch tbh. With Nintendo-exclusive content? Hell yeah

Someone pressed the Send button a little too early lol

Dios Mio!

RDreamer · Aug 15, 2018

Hmm...I'll eventually probably pick this up but not for $60. Already bought it a lot of times. Probably $40 max for me.

Pirateluigi · Aug 15, 2018

What's the worse kept secret? Diablo III on Switch or Spyro on Switch?

cw_sasuke · Aug 15, 2018

Price info was kinda unnecessary...ofc its going to be full price otherwise Blizzard wouldnt bother lol.
Coop multiplayer options sound great though - hope it performs well on Switch.

Kyuuji · Aug 15, 2018

Instant buy for me when it drops. Have a friend who's never played a Diablo and really want to co-op this with him.

Deleted member 3017 · Aug 15, 2018

Awesome. Definitely going to pick this up.

Dot-N-Run · Aug 15, 2018

Ganondorf looking good.

Dremorak · Aug 15, 2018

If its a good port I'll definitely pick this up :)

Jonneh · Aug 15, 2018

Someone's in trouble

nrtn · Aug 15, 2018

So one of the future Diablo projects is pretty much confirmed.

Jerm · Aug 15, 2018

Please please please with the Legend of Zelda content

The Almighty Tria · Aug 15, 2018

Titan Quest didn't hold me as much as I thought it would due to the poor targeting, but this shit will be my jam. It is so good with a controller.

antitrop · Aug 15, 2018

Seems like something that should be $40.

Braaier · Aug 15, 2018

Holy shit In day one!

Still waiting on gta...

Delio · Aug 15, 2018

I'll pick it up for sure.

Edit: didn't read the OP

pikachief · Aug 15, 2018

Also port overwatch with a Samus Power Suit / Varia Suit Phara skin! Pleeaase!

Yuuber · Aug 15, 2018

I'd buy the shit out of this if I hadn't played this exhaustively on PS4. I'd say this is a must for people who enjoy couch coop games :)

Thrill_house · Aug 15, 2018

Wow ok that is cool as fuck. Good get Nintendo

Becks' · Aug 15, 2018

60 bucks. Holy fuck.

EDIT: I didn't read it has all expansions. It's worth 60$ then.

alphacat · Aug 15, 2018

raketenrolf · Aug 15, 2018

I am in if it's 60fps.

Not for 60€ though. Already finished it a few times on other platforms.

Protein · Aug 15, 2018

I gave up the first few months it was released on PC, during the whole auction house debacle, has it improved dramatically since then?

Wagram · Aug 15, 2018

60 dollars? Nah.

Gunny T Highway · Aug 15, 2018

It is a leaky ship lads. $60 though is pushing it.

Daygon · Aug 15, 2018

Nice, I haven't played D3.

SliceSabre · Aug 15, 2018

I'm in, but not at $60.

AlexFlame116 · Aug 15, 2018

Holy crap someone goofed up!

Still, YES! I kept putting off playing Diablo III but this sounds like the perfect time to jump in! Especially with all that Ganondorf content!

Nirolak · Aug 15, 2018

Finally, Ganondorf gets to show he's the true hero of the series.

ZugZug123 · Aug 15, 2018

This exciting to me mostly because it might be the first of many Blizzard ports to Switch, but the $60 price tag is a bit high.

Hippopuncher12 · Aug 15, 2018

Hrmmm nah not for $60 I already own it on 3 other places. Once it's cheap though I will probably get it just for that exclusive shit.

Barry Sandwich · Aug 15, 2018

Diablo II on PC was like crack back in the day.

Never played Diablo III. Is it the same?

Raijinto · Aug 15, 2018

That Ganondorf looks cool.

I honestly have no idea about this game other than its genre and developers so I'd definitely be jumping in blind. Never really played any game like it really.

Will probably give it a try finally with this version.

Couldn't agree more.

Such details will be known when the embargo is actually lifted.

Skittzo · Aug 15, 2018

Awesome, the big question is when?

And will it get the eventual Diablo 4 too?

IfSleepoversCouldTalk · Aug 15, 2018

Diablo 3 on the go with all the content? Hell yeah.

Etrian Darkness · Aug 15, 2018

That's a Ganondorf.

But it is a $60? Errrrrrr, maybe not.

Charpunk · Aug 15, 2018

TAKE MY MONEY

¡Hip Hop! · Aug 15, 2018

That exclusive content will probably get some newcomers to try it. I've never played the series (maybe the original for a little back in to the day) but this seems like the kind of game a lot of people would double-dip on for the portability alone.

Don't think so. Diablo III is one of the most complete and replayable game of our time. Blizzard deserves all the bucks for it. Not only is the base game massive, but the expansions and all the updates for the past few years really made this a must have title. 6 years later, it's still a joy to get into it.

Add the Nintendo cartridge tax and new console tax to this and $60 is a reasonable price. It'll go on sale for $40 anyway.

Razgriz417 · Aug 15, 2018

meh, no thanks, don't think d3 warrants a triple dip lol

Becks' · Aug 15, 2018

BlizzCon is November, I smell a shadow drop.

It was 60fps on PS360.

It'll be 60fps here.

Deleted member 21 · Aug 15, 2018

Someone will suffer for this, lmao.

The multiplayer options sound ace

IDreamOfHime · Aug 15, 2018

Will buy
