Diablo

Diablo 4's first season launches on July 20, and it will be Season of the Malignant, which will include a new story rooted around the appearance of strange Malignant creatures throughout Sanctuary.

Diablo 4 continues the seasonal model we've seen in other Diablo games, with new Seasons coming out quarterly, and the first season is starting soon!

Game remakes are a trend as of late, but just how much of a game gets changed in its new version seems to vary a lot from title to title.

There's no secret that one of the appeals in Diablo 4 is loot, but as much as we all love that little hit of dopamine from the orange pillar of light and sound from a legendary drop, sometimes all the game seems to want to award you is ten thousand shoes when all you need is a knife.

One of the major focuses of Diablo 4's post-campaign gameplay is Nightmare Dungeons, but until recently, they weren't necessarily the form of gameplay you would want to engage in if you wanted to play in the most efficient manner.

Diablo 4 is going to have Seasons -- similar to, but more in depth than its predecessor D3 did -- and one of the consequences of Seasonal Rotations is that players new to the franchise may be surprised or even shocked by things we veteran players of the Diablo series are used to seeing.

Look, I'm 52.

Who is Rathma, and why is he so important to the story of Diablo 4?

We've known for quite a bit that a Hardcore mode was going to be part of Diablo 4, but Blizzard upped the ante for the latest release -- the first 1000 characters to reach level 100 on hardcore would have their names enshrined on a statue of Lilith to commemorate their achievement.

The Horadrim--  the order of mages dedicated to stopping demons from invading Sanctuary -- have many weapons to fight the forces of evil, but only one to stop them: the Soulstone.
