Four job posts on Blizzard Entertainment’s employment page has raised hope that Blizzard is currently working on a third title in the Diablo series.

“The team behind Diablo I and II is looking for a skilled lead 3D level designer with experience building levels using Maya or other similar 3D level building tools,” details the job advertisement for Lead 3D Level Designer. “The ideal candidate has experience creating levels in a senior or lead role on a shipped game.”

The ad continues: “We would also like for this candidate to have excellent analytical understanding of competitive online play with various Blizzard Entertainment games and mods (real-time strategy, World of Warcraft, Defense of the Ancients, etc.). The lead level designer needs to be able to create fun and interesting environments that look and play great while managing and mentoring a team of additional level designers.”

Blizzard is also hiring to fill the positions of Senior 3D Level Designer, 3D Level Designer and Associate 3D Level Designer.

While the game the successful candidates will be working on isn’t revealed, the fact they’ll be working with the “team behind Diablo I and II” has certainly got tongues wagging.
