Diablo IV to Feature DOOM Crossover and Playable Butcher in New “Season of Slaughter”

To trigger this monstrous state, adventurers must participate in seasonal activities and complete unique objectives. By eliminating enemies, players accumulate a resource known as “Fresh Meat,” which serves as the primary currency for character progression and unlocking high-tier rewards.

Furthermore, the update debuts a Killstreak system designed to reward unceasing aggression. As players chain together kills without pause, their streak level rises, granting increasingly potent combat bonuses.

A new equipment category, “Sanguine Items,” has also been added to the loot pool. These artifacts possess properties that scale in power based on the player’s active killstreak, making a fast-paced, offensive playstyle exceptionally lucrative.

In a surprising move, the season includes a collaboration with DOOM: The Dark Ages. Players can secure themed cosmetic items, such as specialized weaponry and trophies, by participating in a limited-time crossover event.

To top it off, Blizzard released a new gameplay trailer for the Warlock. This highly anticipated class is set to join the roster on April 28, launching alongside the Lord of Hatred expansion.
