Blizzard has finally outlined what we can expect from the first Diablo 4 cross-over with a non-Blizzard brand. As revealed in the recently-published roadmap, the action RPG will be hosting two such IP collaborations this year.
Righto, Diablo 4 season 8 is starting next week, and today Blizzard have dropped a whole bunch of details on it ahead of its release on April 29th, so let's see what they are! First up, there's that Belial guy who the season is named after. He's back, but his "motive is unknown", and you'll eventually be able to face off against him in a new quest which introduces a couple of new NPCs. That's all well and good, but the big thing this season is its new main mechanic, boss powers.
Blizzard has officially revealed a few of the remaining details about the next Diablo 4 season, coming to the game on April 29. We’ve known much about Season 8: Belial’s Return thanks to the PTR (Public Test Realm) the developer hosted for the new season last month, and quite unsurprisingly, not much has changed.
Guest characters are increasingly common in gaming, but we wouldn't in a million years have guessed the nature of Diablo 4's upcoming crossover. Blizzard has announced its dungeon crawler is teaming up with Berserk, the long-running fantasy manga that inspired the Dark Souls series.
