Hellfire received only one patch of its own, bringing it from version 1.00 to 1.01. Hellfire was developed based on version 1.04 of Diablo, so it still features many bugs that were later corrected in Diablo patches 1.05 - 1.09. It can still be found on sites like Amazon, where it is considered a fairly rare collector's item. Blizzard does not recognize the events of Hellfire as canon or as an official part of the Diablo series ( much like the two Starcraft Mission Packs) and so it has never been redistributed since its original release in the same way as Diablo, and is not included in the Diablo Battle Chest. The expansion adds two additional four-level dungeons, a completely new playable class (the Monk), two unfinished playable classes that can be accessed with a simple config file edit (The Bard and the Barbarian), as well as many new magic items, spells, and other tweaks. However, it was not actually developed by Blizzard (who were working on the eventually-cancelled Warcraft Adventures: Lord of the Clans) instead the development duties were outsourced to Sierra On-Line. Hellfire is the mostly-official single-player expansion to the 1996 Blizzard Entertainment classic, Diablo.
