However, fans got to see some familiar spells, albeit with much improved special effects and lighting, such as the Necromancer's curses and even the improved creature summons. Considering that these classes weren't active for the alpha, it's possible Vicarious Visions is still working on them, so fans should treat the videos as a work in progress for now. Videos and information started popping up online during the Diablo 2: Resurrected Alpha test weekend showing off classes like the Paladin, Necromancer, Assassin, and Druid. As such, modders were able to swap out the public classes for ones that were never meant to be live at this stage of development. On the PC side of the game, modders quickly discovered that with all of the legacy code still powering the experience, classic mods like Hero Editor still functioned. Content included only three of the planned seven classes.
Last weekend, the first Alpha test kicked off for Diablo 2: Resurrected, giving players access to a portion of the game in an early state.

Naturally, Diablo 2: Resurrected supports 4K visuals, though players who want to experience the game as it was back in 2000 can simply toggle the graphics back into legacy mode. While the gameplay and story remain largely unchanged, the biggest difference are the visuals which have gotten a massive overhaul thanks to upgraded 3D models overlayed on top of the original 2D sprites.
For those who missed out on the PC classic, this new version will give many more players an opportunity to experience the game as unlike the original title, this new one is launching across many more platforms including PC. The beloved 2000 action RPG is still looked at fondly and set the standard for loot based games that followed in its footsteps. With Diablo 2: Resurrected, Blizzard and Vicarious Visions are attempting to make what was once old, new again.
