The game will launch with two more classes, Assassin and Necromancer, but those two classes will not be available during the betas. The Barbarian, Amazon, and Sorcereress classes from that beta will be playable once again, along with the Paladin and Druid classes which are new for this beta. Similar to a previous beta test, only Act I and Act II will be playable. There will be no level cap for this beta, and it's unclear whether beta progress will carry over into the main game. Today at BlizzConline, Blizzard Entertainment announced Diablo® II: Resurrected, the definitive remastering of the classic Diablo II and its expansion Diablo II: Lord of Destruction.

Cross-progression will be available during both beta periods, but a separate pre-order is necessary for each platform during the Early Access beta. Prepare to relive the epic adventure that defined the action-RPG genre for decades. Progress will carry over between the two betas, but no progress will carry over from the beta held earlier this year. Preloads for this beta begin for console players on Tuesday, August 17 and for PC players on Wednesday, August 18. Activision Blizzard announced back in June that Diablo II: Resurrected. From Friday, August 20 at 10:00 AM PDT to Monday, August 23 at 10:00 AM PDT, the open beta begins without any pre-order necessary. Published Launch dates have been confirmed for both early access players and the public weekend beta.Players can preload the beta beginning August 11. From Friday, August 13 at 10:00 AM PDT to Tuesday, August 17 at 10:00 AM PDT, anybody who has pre-ordered Diablo II: Resurrected or the Diablo Prime Evil Collection will be able to take part in an Early Access beta.
