This guy's a pussy cat really

We like to think of ourselves as pretty good people, but even we can’t resist our dark side sometimes. Fortunately, the Hallways of Hades await in Diablo III: Ultimate Evil Edition, which is set to drop like a pleasant piece of loot in August. And in order to celebrate that momentous occasion, developer Blizzard has deployed a new gameplay video, showing off the Reaper of Souls expansion pack and the new Crusader class.

In addition to a glimpse at the user interface, this clip shows off plenty of spellbinding action, which gets especially hectic in places. Don’t worry if you’re a veteran to the release, though, as you’ll be able to import your save data from the PlayStation 3 into this updated edition. Meanwhile, newcomers will be able to enable the Apprentice mode, which will allow you to play with buddies who are at a higher level than you. Oh, and it’ll boast more sick drops than a Skrillex record.
