Diablo 3 version 2 (or D3v2) refers to the radically-updated (and improved, in the opinion of most) version of the game that debuted in February 2014 with [[Patch 2.0.1]].

D3v2 introduced numerous significant game changes, including [[Loot 2.0]], [[Paragon 2.0]], major rebalances to to many of the character [[skills]], an overhaul of the [[combat]] engine, [[clan]] and [[community]] support on Battle.net, and much more. All of these system changes (and many more) are also present in the Reaper of Souls expansion pack.

D3v2 was a controversial undertaking and many fans lamented the changes before they were able to test them. That opinion shifted considerably once the patch was available on the PTR, and after two months of testing most players were in favor of the game changes/improvements.

The fan enthusiasm continued post release and saw many more players active during the weeks leading up to Reaper of Soul's release on March 25, 2014.
