It was there that Diablo, the Lord of Terror, was defeated by an unnamed warrior. In Diablo the main body of the story takes place beneath the floors of a cathedral in a small town known as Tristram. The story of Diablo II takes place some time after the end of the previous game, Diablo, in the lands of Sanctuary. It is a direct sequel to the 1996 hit PC game, Diablo. It was released for Windows and Mac OS in 2000 by Blizzard Entertainment, and was developed by Blizzard North.
