::''Diablo II will feature very different areas in each of its four sections. Act One is set in an area near and much like Tristram in Diablo. Act Two is set in a desert, and Act Three is set in a jungle/tropical rainforest, with large Mayan-style temples and pyramids, the insides of which will look something like this. The setting for "The Finale" (Act Four) has not yet been revealed.

That Act Four was Hell was a very closely-guarded secret for the entire pre-game time. Rumors of it being Hell (as well as many other things, often inside a volcano, or in an icy land) were around, but there were never any screenshots or confirmations of that from Blizzard. We saw it during our Blizzard North visit in December 2000, but couldn't say anything about it at the time.

::''Inferno returns in Diablo II, but it is much improved. It now works like a flame thrower, burning in the direction you target, (and burning mana all the while) and doing actual damage, or so Blizzard promises us. You can see it at work in this new screenshot.
