LB : But it’s not just present in the art, this darkness it is the world, our gameplay and the stories we tell.
These are all areas that remind us we are in the world of Diablo and what we mean when we talk about a return to darkness. At Kealer Farm, which invokes these Diablo 1 vibes? The artist who built that was so excited to put that into the demo. The moments of contrast you will experience in today’s demo are areas like Domhainne Caves, the Drowned Caverns and the Hangman’s Tree to the south which is one of my personal favourites. So how would this tone affect the world of Sanctuary? We have this vast open world and we want to immerse you into that medieval apocalyptic demonic version of Sanctuary like never before. It really affects all things in the world. In the classes you see the Druid, Barbarian and Sorceress engaged in combat with monsters from different realms around sanctuary and this piece really evokes that tone and that feeling that we are after. It’s everything from the palette to the design of the armour to the design of the weapons to how we treat magic. You can really see from this piece (below). We’ve taken a more grounded approach to presenting the world of Sanctuary. So here’s how this idea affects our heroes. It’s that contrast, it’s not monotonous we want to create that sense of space and that world we’re excited to explore. It’s like everything is fine until they open that door! Crazy guy coming out with a Butcher’s knife and in our trailer today you saw that as well. The Butchers’ pit in Diablo 1, you go down, you open that door, everything seems fine and then it all goes horribly wrong. What we like to say is it’s the totality of that tone that creates that creates that experience that we all know and love. Is it the music? It’s all of these things.
Is it mature scenes, is it blood, is it gore? There was a little bit of gore in that trailer, right just a little bit. I want to give you an idea of what we mean when we say that. When you play Diablo 4 everything you see and experience will feel immersive and faithful to the legacy of what we all love about Diablo. It is being developed simultaneously for PC, Xbox and Playstation 4. There are five powerful class, three of them we announced today in our playable demo, the Sorceress, Barbarian and Druid. TW : There are hundreds of dungeons to explore and hundreds of Legendaries to find and equip. LB : Complete with weather and day night cycles. John Mueller : You’ll be able to go from the tip of Scosglen all the way down to Kehjistan. It will be a shared open world with 5 distinct continuous regions. It’s going to feature a dark non-linear campaign. Tiffany Wat : Diablo 4 is a classic isometric action RPG. Evan the Horadrim are but mad old men talking to themselves, talking to graves, clutching their bottles are hard as they once clutched their swords. With Heaven having closed their gates there’s no one to answer our prayers. The other scary part of that is she is Mephisto’s daughter and she represents a link to an even great threat, the Greater Evils.Įven though she was summoned for reasons we are not ready to divulge just yet we know it can’t be good. The scary part of that is that she knows our hearts, she knows what motivates us and can manipulate us. That’s the legend, that’s what we’ve heard.

In that mythos she and the angle Inarius along with other rebel angles and rebel demons tired of this endless great conflict created a world that would be free of conflict called Sanctuary and along with that created the first mortals. Lilith represents that demonic half that we all have inside our hearts. This is important because in the mythos of Sanctuary Lilith is the mother of humanity. It is against this backdrop of despair that Lilith returns and that’s when the events in the cinematic happened. Religious schisms, famine, war, basically humanity left to our own devices and we know how well we do on our own. You can imagine what that does to people. Entire populations decimated, cities ravaged, heaven itself suffered great great losses causing them to shutter their gates. Though Malthael’s plans were foiled, the Angel of Death exacted a terrible toll on humanity and Sanctuary suffered grave devastation.
