Diablo III: Ultimate Evil Edition is a Diablo game for consoles. It effectively combines Diablo III and Reaper of Souls into a single game, including its five acts, the Crusader class, and bounties.[2]

Overview

All versions of the game include singlescreen for up to four players and online multiplayer.[3] Players who installed the console version of Diablo III can transfer their player characters.[4]

The game runs at 1080p on the Playstation 4, and 900p on the Xbox One at launch,[5] though this will be increased to 1080p through a day 1 patch.[6] Both versions are locked at 60fps.[7] The game shipped with the equivalent of patch 2.0.5 of the PC version. There will likely be a day 1 patch to add fixes and content from patch 2.0.6.[8] The Xbox One and PS4 versions will receive regular updates in a manner similar to the PC version.[9]
