What does Diablo 4 need from its next class? So it’s entirely possible that there’s already a road map for future content and expansions for the game, and we might indeed see more than five classes before it’s all said and done.īut if we assume that we’re getting five at launch, that still leaves us with the question: Which one is next? What will that fifth class for Diablo 4 be, and when will we find out about it?Ĭlearly I do not actually know. We’ve been told that the Greater and Lesser Evils - menaces like Ba’al, Mephisto, and Diablo himself - will not be showing themselves immediately when the game comes out, leaving center stage for Lilith and her plans for Sanctuary. Now, it’s true that currently on the official site there’s only one silhouette left around that campfire, indicating that we’ll probably only see five classes at launch.īut Diablo 4 aims to be a much larger, more sophisticated game with more open-world elements than its predecessors.

But since hearing Game Director Luis Barriga and Art Director John Mueller say repeatedly during that video that “There’s always room at the campfire” when discussing the game - and that iconic point of light in the darkness that serves as the character class-selection pane for the game - I’ve been wondering. Before I saw the Diablo 4: What’s Next?video during BlizzConline, I was of the opinion - based on what was said at BlizzCon 2019 - that we would be getting five playable classes for Diablo 4 in total.
