Now with Hellfire!


Originally developed by Synergistic Software and released in 1997, Hellfire was not an official Blizzard product and did not carry Blizzard’s endorsement or label. Despite that, in response to Diablo players who have expressed a desire to experience the content, Blizzard has given the OK for it to be included as a free add-on with Diablo purchases on GOG.COM.

Hellfire offers a non-canonical single-player storyline where players must defeat a powerful demon named Na-Krul who is threatening Tristram. The expansion also adds a Monk class, new weapons and items, new missions, locations, dungeons, and enemies. Hellfire will be accessible while launching the original Diablo.




Traveler, stay awhile and listen...

Darkness stirs beneath Tristram. An ancient evil sweeps across the land, plunging it into civil war and terrorizing the populace. A mad king, his missing son, and a mysterious archbishop are all pieces of the puzzle you need to hack through. You have journeyed to the source of this evil. The town of Tristram - now inhabited only by a handful of survivors, broken and twisted by the madness that has befallen them. A cathedral stands there, built over the ruins of an ancient monastery. Eerie lights and ungodly sounds are heard echoing through its abandoned halls, and that is where you shall venture.

Embark, if you dare, on a quest to destroy The Prime Evil…

  • Experience the legendary action/RPG that influenced an entire genre.
  • Storm Diablo's halls as either a Warrior, a Sorcerer or a Rogue - each with unique skills and abilities.
  • Unite to destroy Diablo - up to 4 players can band together via Internet, or play head-to-head via LAN.
  • Unprecedented replayability - over 200 different monsters inhabit Diablo's ever-changing labyrinth. Equip epic items to conquer fearsome bosses and their minions.
  • A spine-chilling story - experience the horror of a world held in the grasp of The Lord of Terror.

Ahhh, fresh meat!

Travelers looking for the authentic Diablo experience can play the game as it was in 1996, with period-appropriate 20 FPS SVGA graphics, and the ability to matchmake through the classic version of Blizzard’s Battle.net® online-gaming service.
For those wanting something a bit more modern, Blizzard and GOG.COM have collaborated on an updated version of the game tuned for today’s gaming PCs, which includes out-of-the-box Windows 10 compatibility, a host of bug fixes and high-resolution support via aspect ratio-correct upscaling.

  • The most voted game on the GOG.com wishlist, finally trapped in a DRM-free soulstone!
  • Return to the beginning of this dark saga, now in digital format for the first time ever.
  • Better value than Wirt's wares, guaranteed.

Battle.net® multiplayer requires you to configure the Router and Firewall Ports, details can be found here.

Great game

I've played many hours when this game went out and it was the best game at its time but 10$... It's a little overpriced in my opinion.

Don't buy it for Battle.net

Because it's not working, even though they use it as a selling point.

Setting the stage.

It is hard to talk about a game as old, yet important as this. We're not playing this in 1997, we're playing it today. I propose a simple test. Suppose the Diablo series, and only the Diablo series somehow didn't exist, and a version of it only came out today. Would you have a reason to play it? This might seem an unfair test to a retro game, but I think it really is not. Fallout, Castlevania, a great many older Final Fantasies; all games that pass it in my eyes. Even with endless sequels and successors, they have enough to them to draw a gamer back to the source. Diablo does not. But Diablo is Diablo. Not many game can claim to have launched an entire subgenre. This is not to say that playing it today is without value. It's still a playable game that manages to hit some notes that its successors could not. Playing through it for the first time recently, the relative simplicity endeared the game to me. No fussing about with 13% crit rates and 34.5% health on every seventh kill: there's not a lot of gear and not a lot of stats, but what you do get matters more for it. The relatively slow pace also appealed to me, even if the methods by which it was attained sometimes did not. But it's still an old, rough game, outdone by its progeny over the last couple of decades. Good for the time, yet iterated upon thousandfold, even with newer improvements like DevilutionX. Diablo set the stage for the ARPG, but it didn't start the performance. That honor belonged to its sequel.

Don't let nostalgia blind you

This game was awesome when it came out and if you really want to sink deep into nostalgia you can still enjoy it for what it was. However, its successors have rendered this game pretty obsolete. While the graphics are still beautiful to look at, what really grinds my gears are the combat and movement mechanics. You'll hit multiple hits on enemies right in front of you even though your only job is clicking on them. You will move sluggishly through the levels ... (really, that is the worst thing about it, the movement speed is atrocious; once you go Diablo 2 sprinting you never go back).
