Blizzard Entertainment revealed the Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred expansion at The Game Awards 2025, and it's set to bring about some massive fundamental changes to the action-RPG. For starters, the studio is calling this the "culmination" of the Age of Hatred saga which kicked off in 2023 – spanning Diablo 4 and 2024's Vessel of Hatred expansion.
Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred drives toward a final stand against Mephisto, whose influence has spread even more widely across Sanctuary following the events of Vessel of Hatred. This means that you'll be heading to a long-anticipated region – Skovos, the ancestral birthplace of the first civilization and the former home of Lilith and Inarius. Skovos brings sinister cultists, oceanic horrors, and lingering shadows of Hell to Sanctuary, which is music to my ears.
