To prepare the defenders of Sanctuary for the arrival of Vessel of Hatred DLC on October 8, developer Blizzard Entertainment released a new Diablo 4 story blog post. It contains a sinister tale recounting the story so far. Note that the video above contains spoilers from the main campaign of the base game! If you’d like to stay completely in the dark until it’s time to fight Mephisto, you should watch at your own discretion.
Lilith had been cast down. But the dark battle with Hell has only just begun.
In Vessel of Hatred, players will journey into the new region of Nahantu in search of Neyrelle, who is both suffering the fate of her choice to imprison the Prime Evil Mephisto, and seeking a means to destroy him. Become the apex predator of the jungle as the all-new Spiritborn class. Recruit Mercenaries to aid you in combat, fight together in a new PvE co-op activity, & more.
