Diablo continues to be a huge deal, and I'm not just talking about the latest entry, even if it is Blizzard's fastest-selling game ever. Millions of people went straight back to Diablo 3, and as the series' lead producer Matthew Cederquist told Polygon in a recent interview, Diablo's 26-year-old sophomore release is still surprisingly active.
It makes sense that there's renewed interest in D2 given that it just got an additional class, the warlock, via its first new expansion in a quarter-century, but the extent of its popularity might surprise you. Polygon points out that players created 1.92 million warlocks between Feb. 11 and March 11. Players also collectively played the expansion for a whopping 93.4 million hours, suggesting that Diablo is pretty moreish no matter which decade it's from.
