Blizzard Announces Additional Playable Character for Diablo IV

That's several ears full. Blizzard Entertainment has announced the introduction of a new class its unreleased fourth iteration to the Diablo series. Described as "an incredibly flexible class", the Rogue will be a playable character counting on quick movement and a boatload of dexterity to boot, fighting both in close-quarter combat with daggers and with ranged weapons such as crossbows and regular bows.

The Diablo universe has been around for over two decades with the release of the first iteration of action role-playing hack and slasher fun in Diablo in 1997. The Diablo formula is uncanny as it's addictive, setting the mortal player in between the eternal fight between good and evil, heaven and hell, angels and demons on the lore side of things while dropping increasingly powerful loot players may use to min-max their character.

Diablo IV had been announced during Blizzcon 2019, showcasing another of Blizzard Entertainment's well-known cinematic trailers and will launch on PC, as well as Playstation 4, and Xbox One.
