Here\u2019s everything you need to know to experience Blizzard\u2019s classic dungeon-crawler. Diablo became one of the most iconic games when it was released back in 1996, and left a significant mark on the gaming industry. The game combined swift hack-and-slash gameplay with intricate RPG mechanics and catapulted the dungeon-crawling genre into the mainstream. Almost three decades later, the highly anticipated Diablo IV is on the horizon, but those who want to revisit or discover where the franchise began may be wondering how to experience the original game. Here\u2019s everything you need to know about how to play the original Diablo in 2024. How to play the original Diablo in 2024 For PC players looking to play the original Diablo, there are a couple of options. Blizzard offers a version of the original Diablo through its online store, which players can purchase and is compatible with modern operating systems. There\u2019s also GOG (Good Old Games), a popular platform known for preserving classic games for modern systems. They offer a version of the original Diablo that\u2019s been updated to run smoothly on current Windows, Mac, and even Linux systems. Finally, there\u2019s a fan-made project called \u201cDiablo: DevilutionX\u201d that\u2019s rebuilt the game\u2019s source code for modern systems. This version can run on an incredibly wide range of devices, including Windows, Mac, Linux, Nintendo Switch, and even some smartphones. Unfortunately, there\u2019s no way to play the original Diablo on modern consoles including PS5 and Xbox Series X\/S just yet. Players will have to keep an eye out for a digital re-release or remaster in the future. Thankfully, Blizzard often releases older games for new systems, as seen with Diablo 2 Resurrected, so it\u2019s definitely a possibility that the original game will eventually receive the same treatment. Whether you\u2019re a long-time fan or a newcomer seeking a trip to the dungeons, that\u2019s everything you need to know about how to play the original Diablo in 2024.
