Diablo 3 Officially announced

Well it’s official, the week of nonsense splash screens has finally ended and Diablo 3 has been announced. Not only was it announced but there is tons of screenshots, art, and information on the game over at the official Diablo 3 website. If you haven’t checked it out yet I would highly suggest doing so now, there is also a cinematic and 20 (yes.. 20) minutes of gameplay footage that you can either stream or download. The game appears to be pretty solid right now so it’s possible that we could see a release date as early as 2009, though Blizzard has and will always stick with the “it’s done when it’s done”.

Many more clues from the splash page are hinting towards the new Diablo game.

After further inspection of the splash screen image, we are now able to confirm its something related to the diablo universe. If you look close enough you will notice that there are 2 rune images, one on the right and one on the left. On the right, we have the Hel rune from diablo 2 and on the left we now have the Shael rune.

For the web savvy, they have hidden clues within the CSS file for the splash page. For those that don’t know, CSS stands for cascading style sheet and with it you are able to define the style for everything within your webpage (images, fonts, colors, etc). Each day they seem to be adding a commented out image to the css and naming the classes tundra and cavern so far. You can see the images they are linking to here:
