This rule would mean that only 70% of the art in the remake will be new, with the remaining 30% remaining the same but instead being used to add embellishments and modernization.

The team decided on a 70 - 30 art rule for the entire game. The developers also discussed the team’s plan to keep the same feel of the game in line with the original Diablo 2. “Cross-play was a cool idea, but it just wasn’t the right fit for the game since the game has different UIs, control schemes, and stuff like that,” said Matthew Cederquist, Gamer Producer, to IGN, “We brought in cross-progression because it felt right, and we wanted to make sure that no matter what console, or platform a player wants to play on, they are going to get the best experience.” At this point in time, cross-play will not be available in the remaster, with various issues in the game’s design preventing cross-play from working. While Diablo 2: Resurrected will be available on all modern platforms, players will only be able to play together on the same platform.

In a recent round table interview with IGN Middle East, two of the main developers for Diable 2: Resurrected, have spoken about how they have been trying to balance the original design and aesthetic of the game all while bringing the game into the modern day with new graphics and quality of life changes. Some of these quality-of-life changes include cross-platform play, with players able to continue their progress across multiple consoles with cross-save.
