Diablo V
Joe Shelly: So that’s what’s coming for Diablo IV. But today, we’re also ready to look beyond the Age of Hatred. To give you a first glimpse of Diablo’s next era. For 30 years, Sanctuary has stood on the edge of oblivion. And every time, heroes have arrived, pushed the darkness back. Until now.
Narrator: The angels were supposed to save us.
Fanatic: Joy! The Lord has returned.
Narrator: What survived were bleeders and rotters.
Fanatic: Praise be! And bear witness…
Narrator: Sanctuary is his. The Lord of Terror has returned.
Joe Shelly: That’s right. Diablo V is coming in Spring 2029. The heroes are gone, Sanctuary has fallen, and Diablo has won. For the first time, you won’t be fighting to stop Diablo from taking Sanctuary. You’ll enter a world where he already has. There are no towns or safe places waiting to protect you.
Tiffany Wat: And that changes everything. How you survive. What powers you’re willing to claim and what you’re willing to sacrifice. At the heart of Diablo V is the simple question: “What must you become when the wrold has already fallen?”
Joe Shelly: So, join me and Tiffany this afternoon for the Diablo V: Forging the Next Era panel, where the team will take you inside the fallen Sanctuary we’re building. And we’ll talk about how we’re evolving the world, classes, and the story for Diablo’s next era.
Tiffany Wat: Thank you for continuing to come back to Sanctuary.
Joe Shelly: Thank you for believing in Diablo.
Brent Gibson: And thank you for walking through the darkness with us for 30 years. We’ll see you in Hell.
