Diablo II Gets Native Mac OS X Installer

Posted by simoniker on from the huzzah dept.

Sutekh-Acolyte writes "Blizzard Entertainment just released a native Mac OS X v10.2+ Diablo II installer, so Mac users no longer have to use the Classic environment to install the game and its expansion set. At 25 megabytes, it's not a small download, because it includes patch files and installs as version 1.10b. PlanetDiablo has a set of screenshots of the installer in action. Download it from FilePlanet (login required) or directly from Blizzard."

    If its just the installer, I'll still have to load up Classic to play it.

    Diablo II has had an OS X native version for a few years now. IIRC, Blizzard ported both Starcraft and DII to OS X within about 3-4 months of the first release of 10.0. This is finally a native installer for the game...

    Yes. I use a PowerBook and play with my two PC friends over the Internet (using TCP/IP, not the Blizzard servers). We use LOD 1.10.
