Diablo III Reaper Of Souls Out March 25, 2014
Diablo III’s first expansion has a release date. March is already a crowded month, but we trust that you’ll make room for the Crusader, a revamp of the loot system, and all new end-game content.
Reaper of Souls is available for pre-purchase in physical and digital versions. The standard edition will run dungeon crawlers $39.99. The digital deluxe edition ($59.99) comes with an exclusive helm and transmogrification recipes, a spectral hound pet, three more character slots, a treasure goblin pet for World of Warcraft, and StarCraft II crusader portrait and Malthael decals.
A physical collector’s edition has all of the above deluxe edition bonus items, a hardcover art book, a two-disc blu-ray and behind the scenes DVD set, and a mouse pad featuring new villain Malthael. The retail price on this collector’s edition is $79.99.
No release date has been announced for the PlayStation 4 version of Diablo III, called the Ultimate Evil Edition. That version will come with the new Reaper of Souls content and allow PlayStation 3 Diablo III players to move their characters over to the new version.

Our Take
Everything I’ve seen about Reaper of Souls has me excited about diving further into Diablo III. I’ve loved the console translation of the controls, and I’m torn between continuing on the PlayStation 3 (and eventually PlayStation 4) or returning to the PC to play Reaper of Souls earlier.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
