Surely the team is aware that this just totally screws anyone who requested time off of work to play ladder on the launch date.

(Picture: Twitter)Īnother fan on Twitter asked: 'If there won't be a ladder for launch why are you guys launching in September? Did you guys know from the beginning there wouldn't be a ladder? This is a big mistake and huge letdown for longtime D2 players.' Tempers are flaring after Rod Fergusson's answer. Several fans have asked if making sure the game is stable isn't the job of both the early access and open beta, which takes place nearly a month before Diablo 2 Resurrected's launch. The original Diablo 2 seasons ran for six months, but the developers have not confirmed how much shorter.įans aren't happy about this news and for good reason. Interestingly, Blizzard aims to make seasons shorter in Resurrected. We all know that infamous 'Blizzard soon' which means there's really no telling how long it will take before the first season gets underway. Unfortunately, we don't have an exact start date to share. There's no telling exactly what 'shortly after' the launch of Diablo 2 Resurrected means. So it won't be there for launch but will come shortly after once everything settles down.' An utterly disappointing message for veterans. Unfortunately, just as the early access beta gets underway (for those who pre-ordered the game), Executive Producer Rod Fergusson shared some upsetting news for long-time Diablo fans.Īnswering a fan question on Twitter, Rod Fergusson explained: 'We want to make sure the game is stable and ready for ladder before we turn that on.
