In an unexpected twist, Diablo is crossing over with the legendary dark fantasy anime Berserk. Here's everything we know about this surprising partnership and Diablo IV's upcoming developer livestream.
Blizzard surprised fans when both Diablo and Diablo Immortal's official Twitter accounts dropped an animated teaser on April 18th announcing this unlikely collaboration. The brief clip featured a Barbarian clad in Guts' iconic Berserk armor, cleaving through demons with the massive Dragon Slayer sword.
While specifics remain scarce, the teaser strongly suggests both Diablo IV and Diablo Immortal will receive Berserk-themed content. Following last year's World of Warcraft crossover model, players can likely anticipate premium cosmetic items featuring elements from Kentaro Miura's dark fantasy masterpiece.
On the same day as the crossover announcement, Blizzard revealed plans for a developer livestream scheduled for April 24th at 11 AM PDT. The broadcast will air across Diablo's official Twitch, YouTube, and social media channels, featuring a deep dive into Season 8: Belial's Return.
The stream will conclude with a live Q&A session, giving players direct access to the development team. Fans can continue the conversation afterwards during Diablo's inaugural "Sanctuary Sitdown" Discord event. Many anticipate additional details about the Berserk collaboration will be revealed during these presentations.
With its grimdark aesthetic and demonic themes, Berserk makes for a shockingly natural pairing with Diablo's hellish universe. Diablo IV is currently available across all major platforms including PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. For ongoing coverage of this unexpected collaboration, stay tuned to our continued updates.
