Geralt to Appear in Diablo IV; The Witcher 3 Remastered Hits Battle.net in September

Summary

According to VGC, CD Projekt Red and Blizzard are collaborating, with Geralt coming to Diablo IV as a themed skin. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt remastered version will launch on Battle.net on September 29, coinciding with other platforms. The Geralt skin is tied to the Witcher 3 expansion "Thronebreaker"? Actually, the expansion is "Songs of the Past" (往昔之歌), which is a new expansion for The Witcher 3. Players who purchase this expansion on Battle.net will be able to use the Geralt skin in Diablo IV, fighting monsters and demons as the iconic witcher. The skin will be available when pre-orders for the Battle.net version of the expansion open, and will be granted to all purchasers. Those who miss pre-orders won't miss out, as the skin will also be obtainable when the expansion officially releases next year. Blizzard has announced the collaboration, while CD Projekt's announcement reflects on their history with Blizzard games and expresses admiration for their work. This partnership covers both Battle.net distribution and Diablo IV crossover content. For players, this means a crossover between two classic franchises, adding appeal to the Witcher 3 remaster on Battle.net. For the industry, it showcases another example of cross-company IP collaboration, highlighting the growing trend of game studios joining forces.
