Blizzard Entertainment is just minutes away from showing off the future of Diablo 4, Diablo 2: Resurrected, and Diablo Immortal with its 30th Anniversary Spotlight, and we're collecting all of the highlights right here.
As revealed late last month, the next event in the World of Warcraft company’s line of presentations will cover a lot of what’s coming to its classic dungeon-crawling franchise in 2026. The three aforementioned titles are the subjects of today’s Spotlight, with fans told to expect updates that include everything from a fresh look at Diablo 4 and its upcoming Lord of Hatred expansion to a taste of some of the updates coming to its Diablo 2 reimagining and Diablo mobile spinoff.
Blizzard has teased an all-encompassing 30th Anniversary Spotlight for Diablo fans, and we’re here to gather and break down every last announcement, reveal, and surprise. The show starts at 2 p.m. PT / 5 p.m., so kick back, relax, and get ready to refresh this page for all of the biggest updates.
The Warlock Class Is Coming to Diablo 4, Diablo Immortal, and Diablo 2: Resurrected
Players expected the Warlock to come to Diablo 4, but they didn't expect this. In addition to Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred, the Warlock is coming to Diablo Immortal and, yes, even Diablo 2: Resurrected.
Blizzard Is Summoning the Reign of the Warlock for Diablo 2: Resurrected
Blizzard’s 2021 reimagining might be a mostly faithful remake of a classic game, but that doesn’t mean it can’t add to it. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the franchise, Diablo 2: Resurrected is getting a new expansion called Reign of the Warlock – and it’s out today for PC, PlayStaiton, and Xbox Series X | S.
The content adds the demon-summoning Warlock as an all-new class not present in the original experience. It allows players to summon, bind, and devour demons, shaking up the Diablo 2 formula for the first time in 25 years.
Blizzard Talks Terror Zones in Diablo 2
With Reign of the Warlock comes a few tweaks to Terror Zones. Specifically, players can now be stalked by hunters called Heralds of Terror when playing on Hell difficulty. Terrorized bosses beaten on the same difficulty mode also now unveil statues, with players encouraged to combine five of them to access new endgame bosses called the Colossal Ancients.
Quality-of-Life Adjustments Add Loot Filers, Advanced Stash Tabs, and More to Diablo 2: Resurrected
Now, time for what most fans expected when they heard Diablo 2: Resurrected would be featured at the Diablo 30th Anniversary Spotlight: quality-of-life changes. Blizzard now allows players to create, share, and check out community loot filters, all without the use of mods. The update also comes with the ability to stack stash items alongside the addition of dedicated tabs for materials, gems, and runes. Finally, The Chronicle is an item tracker for players who like their Diablo experience to be nice and organized.
A First Look at the Warlock in Diablo Immortal
This June, Blizzard is bringing the Warlock to Diablo Immortal. This version of the summoning class utilizes demon skull, a sacrificial blade, and a beast known as the Soulgorger. The Warlock will get her own origin quest explaining her backstory at an unspecified point in the future.
