The release of Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred is just around the corner, taking us to the isles of Skovos for the first time. As noted in our review, it’s a “triumphant expansion that adds unprecedented depth to the action RPG,” making it a must-play for fans of the franchise.
In addition to the campaign, there will be significant updates to each class’s skill systems and many unique items.

The expansion launches on April 27 in some regions (like the US) and April 28 for most of the rest of the world. Check the release times for your region, or refer to the official image for details.
