Diablo IV is an upcoming action role-playing game developed and published by Blizzard Entertainment, and is the fourth main installment in the Diablo series. The game was announced on November 1, 2019 at BlizzCon 2019, and on June 12, 2022, a 2023 release was announced. Series features such as re-playable, procedurally generated dungeons, and loot-focused character-building will return, while new features such as an open world, and player versus player (PVP) interactions will be incorporated. Five playable classes have been announced—Barbarian, Sorceress, Druid, Rogue, and Necromancer—all of which have appeared in the series. Players guide their character through quests and combat in the world of Sanctuary as the once banished Lilith returns to wreak havoc. The core formula for the series' gameplay revolves around gradually obtaining stronger equipment by defeating increasingly difficult enemies.[9] Enemies are fought using different character class skills which can be customized by equipment and talent trees. This concept is used to progress through the story and quests.[10] Enemies are split into monster families which are defined by a theme, combat style, and their location.[11] Each family contains different archetypes that hold different roles allowing for synergies of specialty abilities between family members.[11] To differentiate between them, they have unique silhouettes, stances and weapons.[12]
Creative director Sebastian Stepien explained that the goal was to create a more "grounded" story than Diablo III.[13] In order to achieve this, the plot revolves around the simple folk of Sanctuary rather than "politics, kings, or another high-fantasy theme."[13]
The playable character's effectiveness in combat is determined by their attributes and their boosts from equipped items.[14] Offensive attributes include attack and critical chance which increase damage output. Defensive stats include elemental resistance and defense which increase how much damage can be taken.[15] Diablo IV introduces three new attributes: Angelic, Demonic, and Ancestral Power. Angelic and Demonic Power alter the duration of beneficial and negative effects respectively. Ancestral Power increases the chance of effects being applied to another entity.[16] Weapons and gear have increasing rarity which are a general indicator of their power. The rarest items have unique effects that alter more than just the character's parameters.[17] Gear can be further customised with runes and runewords. These items allow players to upgrade selected items with additional effects. They are split into two groups: condition runes, and effect runes. Effect runes describe the additional effects. Conditions runes describe the situations under which the effect runes will be active. These two items combine to form a runeword that then can be applied to an item.[18] In an interview with lead game designer Joe Shely and senior producer Tiffany Wat, it was revealed that trading and crafting will be available in the game but will be limited to resources outside of the most powerful items.[19] The auction house, a feature removed in Diablo III as it bypassed the game's concept of gear-progression, was removed.[20][19] Limited-time seasons return to the game, which alter legendary powers to shift the meta-game.[21][clarification needed]
Microtransactions are included in the form of cosmetic items.[22] The game cannot be played offline and will require an internet connection
