The console version of Diablo 3 has the same features as the PC version. It has the same [[zones]], [[events]], [[monsters]], [[bosses]], [[classes]], [[skills]], [[runes]]. It features the same systems such as the [[Infernal Machine]], [[Brawling ]] and [[Monster Power]]. <ref>[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/additional-diablo-3-console-details-revealed-at-pax-east Console has the same content] - Matthew Berger, Blizzard Entertainment, 25/03/13</ref> It is planned to ship up to [[Patch 1.0.7]] but perhaps [[Patch 1.0.8]] depending on the development time. <ref>[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/blizzard-defends-diablo-3s-four-player-maximum Patch release number] - Blizzard Entertainment, 29/03/13</ref>
==Controls==
[[File:Evade.jpg|right|thumb|200px|[[Evade]] in action]]
Movement is controlled by the console controllers. There is no point and click as with the PC but rather users have direct control via the joystick so movement is manually directed to the spot you wish the character to move to, taking the character around obstacles between them and the destination.

==Skills==
 
All five classes have access to the same [[skills]] as in the PC version, their stats and the way they execute are also the same. There isn't however, any cooldown when changing skills.
 
 
==Items and Loot==
 
 
In offline multiplayer games any loot on the ground can be picked up by any player so ground rules will need to be set by those who are playing. Round robin or need over greed for example or just go for ninja-looting for seat-of-your-pants gaming.
 
Loot in online multiplayer games is handled as it is with the PC game. Loot drops for each player and it's only visible to whoever it belongs to.
 
 
==User Interface==
 
The user interface has been remodelled so it works intuitively with the consoles' controller.
 
 
In offline multiplayer players will need to take it in turn to access their various user interfaces as they open full screen.
