I see how it exists for "Diablo II: Resurrected," but how do people who own the original version of the game get it?

(Not that I plan to pay Blizzard any more money -- I've been boycotting them since not long after Diablo II came out the first time -- but I still gotta ask for curiosity's sake.)

I can’t tell if you’re kidding, but just in case: this is for the 2021 remastered version. They’re not making new paid content for a game that came out in 2000.

So the headline is a lie. Diablo II isn't getting its first expansion in 25 years. The Diablo II Remaster is getting its first expansion.

Correct. This was a contention of mine in another thread. Not the first click bait article I've seen about it and they all say the same fucking thing. I wouldn't be surprised if Blizzard sent out a marketing packet for these people to "publish."

The article is a bit unclear about it, but the article does say it's for the remastered version. So their headline is misleading, and OP just used the official article title.

So it's a bad title. Unfortunately it's poor form and considered misleading to change an article's headline. Still, OP should have noted that the headline straight-up lies.
