It’s that time of year again for Diablo III players, as Blizzard once again has kicked off the Darkening of Tristram event, which lasts all of January until January 31st at 4 PM PST. The event sees the return of the throwback pixel-filtered vision that mimics the sprite-based style of the original Diablo.
As before, you’ll find a portal after killing off some cultists that transports you back into a pseudo-recreation of Diablo‘s 16-level dungeon found beneath Tristram Cathedral. The dungeon features classic monsters like the Butcher, as well as unique rewards for scouring the new area (including a mini Butcher pet!).
It’ll hold you over until Diablo IV rolls out, which will hopefully be happening later this year.
