Diablo 5 isn't coming until Spring 2029 , but Blizzard has already revealed three of the game's playable classes. Two of them will be familiar to Diablo 3 fans: the Monk and Demon Hunter. The third will be an all-new class, the Plague Knight. The Plague Knight sounds similar to Death Knights from Blizzard's other fantasy franchise and are described as "walking death" that spread disease and pestilence wherever they go, then consume it to increase their power. Blizzard revealed plenty of new details about Diablo 5 during a panel and subsequent blog post following the game's cinematic reveal as part of the BlizzCon 2026 opening ceremony . In addition to the three classes, Blizzard outlined the state of Sanctuary in Diablo 5 and how players will navigate it. Rather than journeying to towns, players will instead build a wandering caravan of survivors in a world that's been destroyed, and currently ruled, by Diablo himself. According to a developer blog post, Diablo 5's world will be "procedural," where terrain, monsters, and points of interest will change in the wake of the Lord of Terror's influence. As for the survivors that players will call allies, Blizzard said they will serve roles as vendors and companions. Two examples of companions that will accompany players are a former Sister of the Sightless Eye and a lost treasure goblin searching for meaning "in a world where greed has lost its meaning," Blizzard said. Though Diablo 5 is still early in development, there was some information about how it will play compared to Diablo 4. An early look at the game's inventory screen and items is extremely reminiscent of Diablo 2. Blizzard said it's a goal for items in Diablo 5 to be "readable, memorable, and worth chasing across hundreds of hours." Like in Diablo 2, items will take up more space in one's inventory depending on their size. Blizzard also confirmed item sets will return, as will Diablo 2-style runes and runewords. Blizzard may be putting the focus on Diablo 5, but there is still new content coming for Diablo 4. A new class, t he Amazon , will be sold as a standalone DLC pack in the first half of next year, and the game will continue to receive new seasonal content. Diablo 4 Season 15, Hell's Legacy, goes live on September 15 and will see the return of Deckard Cain. The iconic Horadrim will task players with confronting remnants of the Prime Evils, including Diablo himself.
