Diablo Universe Unveils Warlock Class Across Games to Celebrate 30th Anniversary
  • Blizzard is launching a new Warlock class across the Diablo universe to celebrate 30 years, debuting today in Diablo 2: Resurrected, arriving in Diablo 4 in April, and hitting Diablo Immortal in June.

  • In Diablo 2: Resurrection, the Warlock is available now as part of the Reign of the Warlock expansion for $25, adding new zones, items, and other content.

  • Diablo Immortal will welcome the Warlock in the summer of 2026 alongside the Andariel Rises campaign update planned for the year.

  • The Warlock is framed as a master of forbidden knowledge who binds demons to defend Sanctuary rather than serve Hell.

  • Developers emphasize expanding build variety, tracing the Warlock’s origins from Diablo 2 to its evolved forms, and ensuring multiple endgame paths instead of a single endpoint.

  • The broader release also introduces two new classes across the game line, a refreshed endgame loop with Warplans and Echoes of Hatred events, and system updates to support diverse builds and progression.

  • The Warlock is described as a dark scholar who can bind demons and unleash powerful magic, with updates including Terror Zones, Colossal Ancients, and QoL improvements.

  • The Warlock is a demon-summoning, damage-dealing class who powers up by consuming demons, with a distinct personality for each game version.

  • The overall celebration centers on strengthening Diablo’s longevity through cross-title content and new gameplay mechanics, appealing to both veterans and new players.

  • Diablo 2: Resurrection is on Game Pass Ultimate & Premium but does not include the Reign of the Warlock expansion.

  • Diablo Immortal’s Warlock arrives in June, extending the Warlock storyline across the franchise and expanding the mobile experience.

  • Diablo 4’s Lord of Hatred expansion launches April 28, 2026, bringing the Warlock, Paladin, new endgame systems, and the Skovos region.
