If you've already played Diablo 3 or plan to jump in for the first time, Diablo 3: Eternal Collection for the Nintendo Switch is well worth considering despite minor niggles. It's a polished, entertaining port of a well-worn classic.

You know your beloved action franchise is in a state of mediocrity when it struggles to kinetically and strategically compete with games that it helped give birth to.

The long and short of it is that this is simply Diablo III on Switch. It's the same great game, featuring frenzied action, alluring gameplay loops, and few technical compromises

A fantastic version of Diablo III to enjoy, this time, in the Nintendo hybrid console. And it comes with all the current contents of this title that has been designed to be replayed almost infinitely, and on almost any platform. The portable version and the possibility of playing at home are what we like the most. And least of all, the fact that we can not cross party with our Battle.net account. A small drawback to be able to enjoy a title that returns to feel like new in a new platform (and we must remember that Diablo III is a game that is already 6 years old). Almost nothing.

Diablo III: Eternal Collection is everything I could've asked for from a proper Switch port. The graphical downgrades are noticeable in handheld mode, but it doesn't detract from the experience at all, especially when it runs so smoothly.

With all of the improvements already added in, seasons which give further incentive for players to start new characters, as well as the addition of the Necromancer class, this is without a doubt the definitive version of Diablo 3.

Thankfully, the rest of Diablo 3 can be played offline. And online or not, Diablo 3 is one of the best games to be released this decade. There's a reason it's still getting ported to new systems more than six years after its debut. The pairing of Blizzard's design and Nintendo's hardware, both companies working at their finest, is undeniable. As someone who has been a fan of Diablo 3 since it first launched, airplane rides will never be the same again.

Diablo 3 is as much fun on the switch as on the big consoles, but much more mobile.

Blizzard's best action role playing game comes to Nintendo Switch. Now we can experience the better co op mechanics with Joy-Con controller. Also Diablo 3's Nintendo Switch version include the game's all downloadable contents.

Oct 31, 2018

Diablo III: Eternal Collection for the Nintendo Switch represents the best way to play Diablo III right now, whether it be with friends or by yourself with whatever controllers you have. While the exclusive gear and equipment are superficial and not a sole reason to buy on the Switch, Diablo III is a perfect fit for the platform, as cliché as it sounds. Sure, it's starting to show signs of ageing, but it still plays as well today as it did all those years ago.

Diablo 3 on the Switch may be a graphical step-down and far from the best place to play multiplayer, but if you're looking for the perfect platform on which to sink into the end-game grind by yourself – there is no place better to play it.

Diablo III: Eternal Collection on Switch introduces gamers to perhaps the most refined version of the game, and it offers an immersive dungeon-crawling experience that you can play on the go. It runs very smoothly and looks great, but expect to sink a ton of time in if you want to get good.

So, being able to take Diablo III with you wherever you go for a quick rift or bounty or two or three – is well-worth it.

All and all, this is a terrific port and Diablo herself couldn’t have asked for a better welcome to Nintendo’s hardware. Even if you’ve played this game to death, don’t underestimate how great it feels to senselessly destroy hordes of evil on the go.

Diablo III: Eternal Collection makes up for a lot of years since Blizzard released a game in a Nintendo's console. Not only is the complete package and the best way to experience the game, but the game runs pretty well at 60fps and strong visuals even in handheld mode.

Diablo 3 remains a clever, rewarding, and oftentimes brilliant action-RPG that has made a near seamless transition to Nintendo Switch, six years after its original release.

After six years and multiple releases, I must say the Switch version is probably the best way to play on consoles. Given the sheer amount of content and ability to play on the go, it makes this the definitive package to get for Switch. Regardless of whether you've played Diablo III before or not, I highly recommend getting it, even if some previous issues persist.

Diablo III: Eternal Collection is such a perfect fit and excellent port. It should be considered the gold standard for ports and Action RPGs going forward. Blizzard is putting everyone on notice. Diablo III: Eternal Collection is a complete and definitive collection of what’s sure to be the final form for Diablo III. It’s a perfect swan song for this game, because it’s Prime Evil how good this release is.
