A second alpha testing, focused on multiplayer features, should take place later this year. The first alpha testing for Diablo II: Resurrected will start Friday, April 9, and will run until Monday, April 12.

That said, all of this - the claim itself and speculation derived from it - should be taken with a grain of salt. It's just that this is a lot of smoke for no fire. Of course, none of this means the game is actually in development. Blizzards Diablo 2: Resurrected will remaster the classic RPG, bringing plenty of exciting changes to the game.
