Diablo 4 Classes

Diablo 4 launches this afternoon at 4pm pacific, and if you're still deciding what to play, we're here to help.

The Druid is the master of shapeshifting and the wielder of natural forces in the Diablo franchise.

While each game in the Diablo franchise builds on the last, none of them quite replace each other.

Many of us have had the chance to try out Diablo 4’s classes in the recent beta tests, and we probably all have our favorites.

The Necromancer in Diablo 4 has been outlined in one of the Diablo 4 Quarterly Updates, which we talked about somewhat briefly in the overall roundup post for D4's classes.

Thanks to a deluge of news, we officially have the fifth and final Diablo 4 class revealed — but that's just at launch.

Blizzard has announced Diablo 4's fifth class: the fan-favorite Necromancer.

Before I saw the Diablo 4: What's Next? video during BlizzConline, I was of the opinion -- based on what was said at BlizzCon 2019 -- that we would be getting five playable classes for Diablo 4 in total.

In the Diablo 4 December 2020 quarterly developer blog, Luis Barraga promised us a new version of the BlizzCon 2019 campfire scene, referencing the class selection window that presented us with the title's first three classes — the Sorceress, Druid, and Barbarian.

Fans wanted some real meat about Diablo 4 at BlizzConline, and they got it: the Rogue will be a playable class in the upcoming game.
