Challenge: Design a 20th-anniversary page celebrating the history of Diablo using modern design techniques in contrast to the rest of the website. The goal was to drive sales of the classic games via brand engagement.
After conducting user surveys we decided to design an experience that showcased high-resolution images of original box art and in-game screenshots to help players remember the feeling of playing the older games.
