Diablo IV: Lord of Hatred is an action role-playing game developed by Blizzard Entertainment, set for release in 2026 on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. A standalone expansion to Diablo IV, it continues the narrative of the main game with Mephisto's campaign of darkness pushing Sanctuary toward collapse. Players take on the role of new heroes while also uncovering what has become of familiar characters from earlier in the story. As with the base game, the emphasis is on building a character and progressing through the events of an unfolding dark fantasy narrative. Lord of Hatred represents the next major chapter in Blizzard's long-running action-RPG series, extending the world and storyline established in Diablo IV.
