Blizzard Just Threw a Demon-Eating Wizard Into Diablo II—and You Can Play It Today

Forget “don’t change a winning formula”—Blizzard just rewrote the rulebook for Diablo II: Resurrected by adding a brand-new class, the Warlock, in the Reign of the Warlock DLC. And no, this isn’t just a reskin or fan fiction—it’s live, priced at $24.99 (or $40 for the full Infernal Edition bundle).

So who is this Warlock? Think of them as a demon-bargaining sorcerer with a dark twist: you summon fiends like the Goatman and Tainted, then either bind or devour them to steal their lifeforce for buffs, powers, and wild build synergies. It’s equal parts Necromancer summoner and barbarian brute—melee and ranged chaos, with pet management at its core.

But hold up—it’s not just about the class. The DLC drops new Terror Zones, a climactic boss fight against the Colossal Ancients, over 30 new unique items, sets, and runewords, and long-awaited quality-of-life upgrades for stash management and loot tracking.

And here’s the kicker: The Warlock is heading to Diablo IV (in Lord of Hatred) and Diablo Immortal too. So if you’ve been lurking in Sanctuary’s oldest corners, now’s the time to dust off your keyboard—and maybe relearn how to type “goatman” in chat. 🐐✨
