Diablo IV Expansion Pack
Release Date: April 28, 2026
The second expansion for Blizzard Entertainment's hack-and-slash action RPG. Diablo IV: Lord of Hatred features two new character classes, led by the paladin, and introduces the ancient Greek-inspired land of Skovos.
In 2023, Blizzard Entertainment released an action RPG hack'n'slash game titled Diablo IV. A year later, the game received its first story expansion - Vessel of Hatred. Over time, it was followed by a second extensive expansion. It is Diablo IV: Lord of Hatred described here.
The expansion introduces two new character classes. The first is the Paladin, a specialist in combat using a hammer, shield, and Holy Light, capable of both melee fighting and using magic.
The action of this expansion takes place in the land of Skovos, reminiscent of ancient Greece. It is the former homeland of Inarius and Lilith, now home to the Oracle and the Queen of the Amazons. Here, we will find both damp forests full of ruins and volcanic coasts. There are also cities and dungeons where can face cultists and oceanic monsters.
Diablo IV: Lord of Hatred introduces extensive changes to skill trees, including new class variants and an increased maximum character level. Additionally, a new loot filtering system has been prepared for the expansion, and crafting has been enhanced with the introduction of the Horadric Cube and a talisman that unlocks special bonuses.
The developers have also focused on the endgame phase. As part of the so-called War Plans, players can create their own challenges based on activities they choose and self-imposed modifiers.
Additionally, Echoing Hatred awaits testing, serving as the ultimate test of our skills, where we can face hordes of demons. A moment of respite is provided by the ability to fish in the waters of the sanctuary.
Diablo IV: Lord of Hatred introduces a new storyline, in which we are tasked with collaborating with the returning Lilith, forming an uncertain alliance against Mephisto. All this is to prevent the latter from corrupting the Sanctuary into a world dominated by hatred.
Diablo IV: Lord of Hatred is a non-standalone expansion that requires the base version of Diablo IV.
