Diablo 3 Screenshots

Blizzard has released hundreds of Diablo III screenshots, showing off the various characters, monsters, levels, and skills in the game. There have been a lot of screenshots, however they only show a few limited areas of the game, and all the things seen in screenshots have been seen elsewhere; in gameplay movies, or especially in the playable demos at BlizzCon 2008, 2009, and 2010. In this way Blizzard shows off a lot of images, while actually showing very little of the game.

This can be frustrating to fans who have seen all of the images and want more, but at the same time it is preserving quite a bit of surprise and mystery, since so much of the game remains unrevealed.

More new areas of the game, more spells, more monsters, and more everything will be revealed over time, but the Diablo III developers are clearly enjoying the slow run out, knowing how much they're holding in reserve.

Diablo 3 Screenshots

The best collection of Diablo 3 Screenshots can be seen in the image gallery of Diii.net, the leading fansite. They have archived every single released screenshot, as well as taking hundreds of screencaptures of the various Diablo 3 Gameplay movies. All of the images have informative captions, as well as tags enabling viewers to sort them by the areas, characters, skills, monsters, and other things shown in them.

• Diablo III Screenshots: Act One -- Images showing off areas in Act One of Diablo 3; chiefly (so far) Tristram and the dungeons beneath the Tristram Cathedral.

• Diablo III Screenshots: Act Two -- Images from Act Two of Diablo 3. Desert wastes, desert tombs, and the ruined city of Alcarnus predominate.

• Diablo III Caravan Screenshots -- Screenshots of the Diablo 3 Caravan, the traveling town of NPCs that accompanies the player between acts.

• Diablo III Interface Screenshots -- Images Diablo 3's inventory, interface, paper doll, and skill trees.

• Diablo 3 Jigsaws -- Huge images compiled from dozens of screenshots, showing map-like sweeps of the game area. (These are very difficult to create in Diablo 3 since the 3D perspective magnifies images near the center of the screen.)
  • Diablo 2 Jigsaws -- Jigsaw images worked wonderfully in Diablo 2, giving overhead views of huge dungeon areas.

Diablo 3 Gameplay Movies

In addition to stand alone screenshots, Blizzard has released several high quality gameplay movies, showing extensive monster-bashing and rainbow-watching. Screen caps of these aren't quite as high quality as the screenshots, but they are still quite nice, as well as informative of the game, for those who haven't had the chance to play yet.
