"We definitely heard the feedback, we know people are excited about Paladins." Diablo 4 lead talks about taking a new direction with the Spiritborn class and more about Vessel of Hatred

Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred new Spiritborn class.

What you need to know

  • In an interview with Rod Fergusson and Brent Gibson, we asked why Spiritborn was chosen as the first new class, and not Paladin.
  • The developers want a class that fits with the new area and the story they wish to tell with the Vessel of Hatred expansion.
  • Season 6 will run concurrently with the expansion, and the team is already playing and testing how that interaction will work.
  • Diablo 4 launched assuming that players wanted the loot grind of Diablo 2, and the negative reception to the Uber grind led to a lot of realization amongst the team and changes we see today in Season 4.
