Game is broken on Nintendo Switch

Ever since the update on August 20, 2024, the Single Player mode on Nintendo Switch is completely broken. If you create a new character, you will lose all of your progress as the character will not save locally. Once you close the game and reopen it, the character will no longer exist.

Also, if you are connected to internet while playing single player, the game will crash 100% of the time when you select “Save and Quit”.

The game seems to be running on a Test Version in offline mode. The Version info when offline says 1.6.81942 - TEST. This may be the issue.

I have the same issue with creating characters. There is seemingly nothing I can do to create a new character and have it not disappear. I’ve tried staying in-game for over an hour. I’ve lingered a long time on the character select screen. Etc. It always disappears.

It’s a shame the Switch version is so neglected. There’s been so many issues. I still have problems with items vanishing too. It’s hard to play a loot-driven game, when all my best loot gets erased.

Is the game still busted for you guys? Im really upset about this

Wow, I can’t believe this… This is production software… on the (soon to be) best selling console of all time (Nintendo Switch)… and it says “1.6.81942 TEST”… the worst part is that I could have chosen to not download the latest version, but I chose to download instead - thinking that I want the most recent version with bug fixes… it feels like I just nuked my own copy of the game on my Nintendo Switch… very disappointing…

Blizzard does not care if Diablo 2 is broken we already paid. This is blizzard after all, when people got their accounts hacked for blizz slobbiness, these absolute units blamed the players. I hate blizzard and now that i cant play the game i paid for i have no further use for a blizzard account.
