There’s a bit of a ruthless streak about Sony at the minute. The manufacturer appears to realise that it’s converted ex-Xbox 360 owners to its next-gen machine, and so it’s offering a variety of sweeteners in order to aid that transition. The latest of these is the promise that you’ll be able to bring your progress from Diablo III into the upcoming PlayStation 4 version – irrespective of platform.
That means that if you started the game on Microsoft’s previous box, you’ll be able to carry your level and loot over to the Japanese giant’s black behemoth. Naturally, you’ll also be able to transfer PlayStation 3 saves as well. This is all made possible by developer Blizzard’s online Battle.net service, which presumably pulls data from the cloud. It’s worth mentioning that you’ll only be able to move your characters once, so think carefully.

I held off playing any version of Diablo III until getting this version on PS4 when it finally launches, but I think it's a brilliant move and a slap in the face of MS!
I'm just waiting for Minecraft to my PS4
@Davs_Due I waiting for minecraft on ps vita too
I'm getting the PS3 version but this is pretty cool.
Nice. Finally able to play diablo at its full glory
Now if they could move all of their achievements over too.
Nice little bonus for those that will make use of it!
Dang I wish I would have know about this before I stopped playing the 360 version since I though I would have had to start over in the PS4 version. Oh well I might do it but it depends if it will cost anything.
@Tasuki - Who would have thought? I never would have thought this would have been an option.
Still holding off playing this as I may wait till I get a PS4. These "GOTY" type editions are great.
