Diablo IV was, in a lot of ways, under a great of pressure to perform, especially given that modern Blizzard Entertainment hasn’t had a much-needed win for years, especially given the reception of Diablo Immortal. Nonetheless, Diablo IV succeeds in providing a captivating story and enthralling gamep

Diablo IV is an unquestionable win for Blizzard and one of their foundational franchises when it needed it most. An unrelenting commitment to vision, redefined Sanctuary, never-ending player progression, and excellent boss fights are just a few of the reasons Diablo IV isn't held back by uneven pacing and recycled content.

Diablo IV draws players into a grim story line and gives them the freedom to explore and forge their own path across the most expansive and intense vision of the world of Sanctuary—a bleak and shattered hellscape bereft of hope and beset by demons.

It's time to return to Sanctuary this year, but is it worth it? Diablo IV returns with a brand new expansion that feels good enough. The expansion promises to improve the base game experience, and giving players more endgame content to keep them busy for many hours.

The Diablo franchise is one of the longest-running game franchises with a huge fan base. It’s also been over ten years since its last outing, with Diablo III coming out way back in 2012. Whilst the reception to that one initially started rather mixed, with a rough launch and a ton of issues, it overcame its rocky start. It survived eleven years with twenty-eight Seasons, and kept a rather impressive player base coming back every few months. I personally didn’t stick around for this, but t...

Diablo is back, better and more addicting than ever, and with an insane level of post-campaign content. It takes some time for the game to open up, but once it does you won't be able to put it down.

Diablo IV's latest expansion, Lord of Hatred, brings about a satisfying conclusion to its story arc, even if all the new additions don't land as neatly. Lucas explains in his review.

Diablo IV: Lord of Hatred | Review | It's finally time to settle accounts with Mephisto: here's what we think of the new expansion.

Apr 21, 2026

The Vessel of Hatred expansion meaningfully expands on the content offered by Diablo 4 with the game's most exciting class and captivating spins on the dungeon-crawling formula.

Oct 4, 2024

Diablo 4 doesn’t revolutionize hack and slash RPGs like its predecessors did, but its blend of new and old features works quite well. Its return to a darker, gothic art style that embraces gore, ugliness, and religious imagery really makes its world effortlessly etch into your mind the detailed shapes of demonic sculptures and remains of obliterated foes.

Diablo IV gets a facelift with Lord of Hatred: a less dark narrative, new classes, faster gameplay, and a revamped endgame, but with a reduced challenge.

Apr 21, 2026

Diablo IV takes the darker themes & grittiness of Diablo II and brings the experience to vibrant life with the fully open-world Sanctuary, deep customization, & loads of loot.  Blizzard’s gripping ARPG loot fest plunges into epic and dark territory convincingly with Diablo IV. On the one hand, [...]
