- Worth noticing
- The page says even single-player runs through a local, in-process server; multiplayer is described as a future step.
Field notes
The project says its launcher locates the user’s Diablo II folder and keeps both the game and launcher up to date, while leaving the original install untouched. Its stated licensing boundary is explicit: the D2RUST code is MIT licensed, but Blizzard’s assets and game files are not. Online multiplayer is presented as a next step, with mod channels planned.
