Blizzard reveals, explains another Diablo III class: wizard

By Stephen Munn | October 11, 2008

Those who played the original Diablo will remember the mage in that game, who was called the wizard. Blizzard has revealed, at Blizzcon 08, that the wizard is a returning class for Diablo III. The reveal trailer you see here shows the wizard as a woman, but all the classes in Diablo III so far are playable as either sex. This seems confirmed by the concept art at left. Cool stuff, and I’m sure we’ll hear more about it in about two months in Blizzard’s excellently produced Blizzcast.

If you want a look at the video, check it out or download it right here. You’ll have to use Blizzard’s download manager to get the file, but seriously, it’s worth it. Definitely reminiscent of the sorceress from Diablo II, with some interesting adjustments. You could also watch it at GameTrailers, but if you’re going to go through all that, you might as well watch it at high resolution on your own computer.

If you’re looking for more information on what this class is all about, go no further than the detailed explanation at Gamespot, linked below.
