In Lord of Hatred, the Diablo IV map will expand with the Skovos region.
Furthermore, the expansion will bring a series of changes and improvements to the original experience, primarily a completely redesigned endgame. Diablo IV: Lord of Hatred is set for next week: the expansion will be released on April 28, 2026, on all platforms where the game is available (PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Series X|S, PC).
