The adventurers overcome Andariel and then follow the Wanderer east.Īct II – While the adventurers search the eastern desert for Tal-Rasha’s tomb, the Dark Wanderer gets there first. The Dark Wanderer has one of the lesser evils, Andariel, corrupt the Sisters of the Sightless Eye (Rogues) and takes over their Monastery. The story is divided up into four acts:Īct I – The adventurers rescue Deckard Cain, who is imprisoned in Tristram, and then begin following the Dark Wanderer. The player realizes that the Dark Wanderer’s mission is to reunite with the other prime evils, Baal and Mephisto. Marius, now in a prison cell, narrates the events to a hooded visitor. Mephisto is imprisoned in the eastern temple city of Kurast.Īs the story progresses, cut scenes show the Dark Wanderer’s journey as a drifter named Marius follows him. Baal, united with the mage Tal-Rasha, is imprisoned in a tomb near Lut Gholein. With the corruption of Diablo’s soulstone, the demon is able to control the Dark Wanderer and is attempting to free his two brothers, Mephisto and Baal. Since then, the hero has become corrupted by the demon’s spirit, causing demons to enter the world around him and wreak havoc.Ī band of adventurers who pass through the Rogue Encampment hear these stories of destruction and attempt to find out the cause of the evil, starting with this corrupted “Dark Wanderer.” As the story develops, the truth behind this corruption is revealed: the soulstones were originally intended to imprison the Prime Evils after they were banished to the mortal realm by the Lesser Evils. In Diablo, an unnamed warrior defeated Diablo and attempted to contain the Lord of Terror’s essence within his own body.

But if you need a refresher on the story, here it is:ĭiablo II takes place after the end of the previous game, Diablo, in the world of Sanctuary.

There has been nothing changed from the original 2000’s classic. If you played the original Diablo II: Resurrected, then you have played Diablo II: Resurrected. I’m going to be really honest about the story of Diablo II: Resurrected.
