Blizzard Entertainment has revealed that the Warlock class is coming to Diablo IV as part of the upcoming Lord of Hatred expansion, as well as the mobile-centric Diablo Immortal this June. Plus, you can play using this new Warlock class starting today in Diablo II: Resurrected as part of a new Reign of the Warlock DLC.
To announce the news, Blizzard released a Warlock class cinematic that is loosely about a more generic Warlock – one that could exist in any of the three aforementioned Diablo games. The Warlock will join the already available Paladin in Diablo IV: Lord of Hatred when that expansion launches on April 28.
The Lord of Hatred expansion costs $49.99, and preordering gets you instant access to the Paladin and day one access to the Warlock in April; on the Diablo II side of things, you can purchase the Reign of the Warlock DLC individually for $24.99 on Battle.net, or as part of the Diablo II: Resurrected Infernal Edition bundle for $39.99 on both Battle.net and Steam.
Check out the Warlock class cinematic trailer for yourself below:
Blizzard describes the Warlock as a “master of dark magic, forbidden rites, and knowledge the world refuses to understand. Hardened by betrayal and driven by survival, they stand ready for whatever may come their way.”
