Diablo 4 will let you transform into its most fearsome demon, the Butcher, in an experimental mini season before Lord of Hatred drops

Key art for Diablo 4's Season of Slaughter. A massive horned demon holding a cleaver and a hook stands behind a barbarian character. Between them there is a red, half-demon man to symbolize a transformation.

With a little over a month before Diablo 4's second expansion, Lord of Hatred, comes out, Blizzard seems to be experimenting a little with the game's usual seasonal format. The next season, which starts on March 11, will focus on slaying hundreds of demons in a row and eventually becoming a demon yourself.

You won't become just any demon though. Kill enough monsters quickly enough and you'll transform into the Butcher, Mr. Fresh Meat himself, with a whole new set of abilities. The Season of Slaughter will introduce a unique open world event where killing monsters will drop a currency you can cash in to become the Butcher.
