Diablo III Fans Beware: Cinematics, Story Details Leaked Onto the Intertubes

We're no fans of spoilers here at Gameranx—in fact, we hate them—and we suspect that neither are you, especially if you play the games you play for the stories they offer.

And though Diablo III may be an action-oriented title, it and its predecessors are home to a painstakingly crafted lore and setting that intrigue and hook countless gamers.

In any case, we've been made aware that spoilers of Diablo III have begun to surface on the internet, with boxed copies of the game arriving somewhat early. While most of the content is locked away, the cinematics on the DVD were extracted and some of them have made their way onto YouTube. Blizzard is undoubtedly busy suppressing these videos (which were illegally extracted and uploaded) but details about their contents can be found on most Diablo fansites, so consider this a warning.

If you're keen on experiencing the story for yourself without getting spoiled, just be careful out there.

Diablo III is set for release on the PC/Mac on May 15.
