Blizzard has officially announced the fourth part in its Diablo series. Diablo 4 will be an action isometric RPG, will have three classes, and its new “diablo” will be Lilith. The game will be darker and grittier than Diablo 3, and will have a similar style/tone to Diablo 2.
Basically, everything that was leaked a while ago has been confirmed. As we wrote in our previous article, Diablo 4 is going to look dark, gritty and gross. Locations will be toned down, infrequently laid with corpses, wasteland, grey-ish deserts, clut caves surrounded by flesh, rotten crypts, marshes and bogs, as well as plagued cities. These levels will be larger than Diablo 3’s levels.
Characters will now be able to ride horses (possibly other mounts) and there might be contextual interaction with environment. Blood splatters will also look more like blood and not splashed jam.
The three classes that the game will have are: Mage (uses fire, ice and lightning so far), Barbarian (swords, clubs, axes, kicks etc), and Druid (lightning, wind, and transforming into beasts).
There is currently no ETA on when the game will come out, however we’ll be sure to keep you posted. So make sure to enjoy the following trailers until we have more details to share about it!

Why is the barbarian a kang now?
because diversity
realism 😉
In the Diablo 4 panel they said you will be able to customise your character as you want
Virtue signalling
He looks more like Conan, tanned, you know.
graphics look ancient, then again blizzard never had cutting edge graphics they put colors on everything.
I’ll be damned. It looks like a real Diablo game. Fitting music, too. I was fully prepared for cartoon graphics and mumble rap.
Damn, I said to myself that I wouldn’t be hyped for a diablo again, after diablo 3. Those two trailers didn’t help at all. I’m super hyped.
You have horrible tastes
Doesnt look like Diablo at all (3 barely did), more like a MMO knock off made in China.
Only three characters shown. I’m willing to bet they’ll have another 3-5 characters locked behind a paywall like the Necromancer was in D3. One of them will be day one DLC if you pre-order or some nonsense like that.
Even Diablo 2 at the time had new classes released with expansion pack.
Difference is, at this time gamers wasn’t a winning entitled community.
I think you need to reread what you posted and compare it to what I posted.
The new characters were released… with an expansion pack. Not simply locked behind a paywall before they could be accessed.
I’m totally fine with Blizzard creating a bunch of great new content and attaching a couple of new characters to it. I’d buy that. I’m NOT cool with Blizzard cutting basic content from the base game and making us dish out another $15 just so we could use characters that should have been included already.
That cinematic was amazing.
True Blizzard has some pretty hardcore art. I just imagine if Diablo was like God Of War type game!!!
Dark Souls style game with this art and world would be amazing.
Never going to happen, more online bull$hit are coming.
Excellent news! Beautifully executed cinematic, was a pleasure watching this.
Looked amazing, but we all knew Blizzard would do that. Lilith looks like she’s from the movie Hellraiser!
When are we going to get a proper Blizzard animated movie? Their cinematics are always so impressive.
Well, glad to see Rathma summoning his mother. I have a feeling she’s going to try and summon the Prime Evils, and we’ll more than likely have to battle them again in some form or another. Atleast we’re fighting what appears to be Duriel in the gameplay trailer.
Can’t wait to see more of the game, everything I’ve seen so far definently seems to be a middle finger towards Diablo 3s art style.
You like to set the bar pretty low I see.
Doesn’t look to do anything new…
I noticed that too, they seem to think D3 was some hot sh*t that people were buying because it was the pinnacle of RPG and not out of nostalgia for a superior game.
True praise would be a comparison with Path Of Exile…but it’s not even close.
Looks extremely generic
And only 3 classes
Only 3 so far… You know.. DLC….
3 classes that have been shown yet. You know Blizzard isn’t the fastest developer. You’ll see the other classes in a few years.
Yeah, as DLC
I’m pretty sure not even EA would release this game with only 3 classes. D4 will be released After 2022 and it will have more than 3 classes for sure.
Activision is on par with EA
The CGI was beautiful and the trailer dark, gory…was amazing! The gameplay looks solid, but ofcourse have to see more…excited!
So you’re impressed by watching a movie themed around the game, and you think that gameplay they showed, looked “solid”? You think “that”, looked solid. Wow, must be nice being so easily impressed. The world of gaming must appear absolutely majestic to you.
Your life sound cool man.
Ok.
u lost me at gameplay, i call that a joke.
maybe it’s just me?? it seems bliz really incompetent. it’s 2019 now not 2009. i think any indie developers also can make a much better game both visually and in gameplay
Still online only? F*k You Blizzard
You say this like you are surprised. Acti/Blizzard is 100% online-only, moving forward. Get ready for “games with expiration dates”, being the accepted norm.
That’s what bothers you? really? not the fact that they’re trying to trick us into buying this sh*t? It doesn’t show any progress, graphics are same too. Looks like a mere expansion.
Trailer was dope tho, that’s where Blizzard excels.
That’s not exactly something hard to do
Looks good. Diablo and Diablo 2 were great games back in the day but theres not just Diablo any more and these games are pretty much all the same to me.
Oh boy, a “cinematic trailer” which has zero representation of the game, and builds hilariously artificial hype. Then the “gameplay trailer”, that looks like this pile of s**t is still meant to run on a phone.
If you are genuinely impressed by this, then you need to retire from this hobby, and stop f**king it up by rewarding companies for producing this type of schlock. God this looks like garbage.
God it was awful, well of course it was, there wasn’t any Diablo 4 in the making up until they f**ked themselves with Immortal last year. they didn’t even had a gameplay footage to show, it won’t be ready until another two or three years. they just slapped some PoE and GD style models together and here, it’s your Diablo game, don’t boo us.
It will be another always online with another broken launch. only 3 Classes, lol pathetic, it should have all the classes from 3 and it expansion for launch then new ones for upcoming expansions with a proper single player offline mode so if you Mod your game you won’t get banned like 3, hell an FOV mod is a bannable offence in 3.
well said.
The Cinematic Trailer is trite and uninspired. Blizzard’s run out of ideas.
Gameplay Trailer’s pretty cool, though.
Love the look, and the mounts.
Cant wait to play it!
can’t wait to not play it.
Awww, well i’l see you online anyways.
No, really, I won’t be playing it. The only place you’ll find me online will be PS plus. Death stranding, Cyberpunk and The last of us II. That’s it. Everything else is garbage nowadays.
trash https://media0.giphy.com/media/DpB9NBnxFo8SDzePYic/giphy.gif
Looks like more modern-day garbage, typical of Blizzard. I have trouble even believing that anyone is impressed by this trash. I don’t know how simple one’s mind would have to be, to find that impressive, but there you have it.
The nun looks great though. SJW/PC bulls**t, in full effect.
Fingers crossed looks promising.
check again, you might suffer from myopia.
You can see here the sadness live especially the ui. Oh and mute it for your own sake:
