Gameplanet.by has just contacted Blizzard Europe with a hearing about the release date and system requirements for Diablo III. As we expected it all turned out to be just a rumor. Blizzard commented on the situation as follows: “It will be done when it's done.” The same answer followed the question about the date of the StarCraft II beta test. The company promises to share updated information about projects as soon as it becomes possible.
