Following the launch of Diablo III on May 15, the Lord of Terror has consumed a record number of souls. More than 3.5 million copies of the game were sold as of the first day of release, making Diablo III the fastest-selling PC game of all time. As of the first week of release, Sanctuary’s heroes had already reached a total of more than 6.3 million. See the press release for all the gory details.

The gates of the Burning Hells opened last night, and many of our brave heroes united to face the challenge!

Twenty years have passed since the Prime Evils were defeated and banished from the world of Sanctuary. Now you must return to Tristram and investigate rumors of a fallen star, an omen that the End Times have begun.

Ahh… fresh meat! The Butcher will be pleased to welcome you all tonight for the release of Diablo III! Exclusive launch events are taking place in five locations across Europe.
