The modifications made to Diablo 3 on the Xbox One from Microsoft and the PlayStation 4 from Sony are different and they can be explored in full detail in this thread.

The announcement from Blizzard also states that the company does not yet have clear launch dates for the new patch in Europe and in Asia.

It adds, "If you are logging in from a European or Asian client, you will need to wait for this patch to release in that region before it can be installed. Additionally, if your home region is in the Americas, you will be unable to log into Europe or Asia using Global Play after patch 2.1.2 is live until those regions have also patched."

Diablo 3 is exploring new modes and concepts

When Blizzard first introduced Diablo 3, many members of the community were unhappy with the experience that they were offered and with many design choices.

Since then the studio has listened to their feedback and has cut out entire features in order to replace them with more interesting ones.

The launch of the Reaper of Souls expansion marked a renaissance for the title and its fortunes were further boosted by the delivery of the versions for the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4.

At the moment, Blizzard is focused on balancing the experience via patches and a new Season event is set to start in about three weeks, ready to offer more excitement to the fan base.
