New page

The Ultimate Evil edition is Diablo 3 + Reaper of Souls in one package. It will be released for the PlayStation 4 in 2014. No support for the Xbox One has been announced, but is widely-expected.

This product differs from the [[Diablo 3 console]] which was just Diablo 3, released for the PS3 and Xbox 360. (The Diablo 3 console was released before the PS4 and Xbox One were on the market.)

Unlike the PC version of [[Reaper of Souls]] which is an expansion pack and requires a separate purchase of Diablo 3, The Ultimate Evil edition is a stand alone product which includes Diablo 3 and Reaper of Souls

This game is not an expansion for the Diablo 3 console title; a purchase of that game is not required to play the Ultimate Evil edition which contains all of the Diablo 3 and Reaper of Souls content.

==Official Information==

Blizzard announced the Ultimate Evil Edition with a blog post in late 2013, and showed the product off at Blizzcon 2013, and other gaming conventions afterwards.[http://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/11502590]

<blue> Prepare for Ultimate Evil on PlayStation® 4

Many courageous nephalem have answered destiny's call and slaughtered thousands of demons since we first announced that the Prime Evil would be returning to Sanctuary on the PlayStation® 3. Now, it's time to begin a new journey on a brand new platform.

From these hallowed halls of BlizzCon® 2013, we're excited to reveal that Acts I-V will be wrapped together into one incredible and action-packed adventure when Diablo® III: Ultimate Evil Edition™ arrives on the PlayStation® 4!
Crush Demons & Thwart Death… From the Comfort of Your Couch

Diablo III on the PlayStation 4 brings a completely new experience to console gamers, delivering all the exciting updates and game-enhancing features premiering in Reaper of Souls on the PC. We've taken full advantage of the system's cutting-edge features with a custom-designed interface, touch pad functionality for the new DUALSHOCK® 4 wireless controller, and powerful social features tailored to improve your demon-slaying experience.

Vanquish your foes with the righteous might of the new Crusader class. Rise to new heights of power with an increased level cap, taking your hero to 70 and unlocking new skills (as well as a fourth passive slot) along the way. Befriend Myriam, the Mystic, to customize both the properties and appearance of your equipment. Explore endlessly with Adventure Mode, where all waypoints are unlocked and world itself is your battlefield. Hunt down objectives and complete all-new Bounties for legendary rewards. And don't forget to prepare for the slew of new monsters lurking behind every shadowy corner, awaiting a chance to rip your hero limb-from-limb!</blue>
