At last year's BlizzCon, developer Blizzard announced that the first expansion for Diablo 4 would be called Vessel of Hatred and include a brand-new character class for the series. Since then, the developers have been mostly quiet, preferring to focus on the seasonal content that continues to drop every few months in Diablo 4 . However, at today's Xbox Showcase, the developers released a lengthy new story trailer, setting up where Vessel of Hatred will take players when it launches.
Diablo 4: Vessel of Hatred Release DateWe knew Diablo 4: Vessel of Hatred was coming later this year, but some thought it might launch very soon. After all, the last three major releases in the Diablo mainline franchise all launched during the first half of the year. That never meant that Vessel of Hatred was a lock to launch this summer, but with Diablo 4 Season 5 launching on August 6th, some assumed Vessel of Hatred would launch at the same time.
Sadly for those players, it was revealed today that Blizzard is targeting October 8th for the expansion's launch. That date could move around depending on how development goes, but Blizzard will likely try to stick as close to it as possible to capitalize on the Halloween season. After all, it doesn't get much spookier than Mephisto, the Lord of Hatred. Of course, the one thing most players are talking about following the new announcement is when we're going to see gameplay.
Diablo 4 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC platforms. The Vessel of Hatred DLC launches on October 8th.
