Diablo II is one of my all time favorite games and I have been playing it on and off since it first released back in 2000. The game had five character classes when it first launched and two more classes were added in the expansion Diablo II: Lord of Destruction released a year later.
Now 25 years later Diablo II a new playable class called ‘Warlock’ is coming to Diablo II as part of the ‘Reign of the Warlock‘ expansion. In addition to the new character class the update also has new quests, Terror Zones etc.
Fresh from the gates of the Burning Hells, the Reign of the Warlock is upon us! This major update brings the Warlock, the first new playable class to Diablo II in 25 years. The Warlock is a mysterious, dark scholar who’s spent years studying their taboo craft in the shadows, but no longer. Wield their awesome power to bind demons and wreak havoc upon your foes.
Reign of the Warlock brings fresh new Terror Zones, fearsome Colossal Ancients to conquer, alongside player requested quality-of-life changes, and more. Use this powerful new class to carve through the demon hordes, using your dark arts to dominate your foes.
It shows how popular the game is when the studio releases an update with new content to a 26 year old game.
