Diablo IV is a 2023 action role-playing game developed and published by Blizzard Entertainment. It is the fourth main installment in the Diablo series. Announced at BlizzCon 2019, the game was released on June 5, 2023 for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X and S, and Microsoft Windows. Players create a character from one of eight playable classes—Barbarian, Sorcerer, Druid, Rogue, Necromancer, Spiritborn, Paladin, or Warlock—and use their skills to complete quests through combat.
Staple features returned from previous installments in the franchise, such as a focus on replayable, procedurally generated dungeons and loot-focused character-building, while also featuring mechanics new to the series, including an open world and player versus player combat.
Diablo IV received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised the game's narrative and atmosphere. The game generated $666 million in revenue within the first six days after launch; as of September 2024, it has surpassed one billion dollars in total revenue. Its first expansion, Vessel of Hatred, was released in October 2024. The current season, Season 10: Season of Infernal Chaos, started on September 23, 2025. Its second expansion, Lord of Hatred, was announced in December 2025.
