Want to delve even deeper into the world of Diablo outside of video games? Then the latest announcement from Blizzard could be ideal for you
Diablo 4 is currently on everyone’s lips again in video game circles. The main reason: The freshly announced addon Vessel of Hatred
But the spotlight was also on the Season 3 starting at the beginning of 2024, including leaderboards and the new dungeon The Gauntlet at the recent BlizzCon.
Diablo will soon also take place in analog form. So soon you won’t have to switch on your PC or console to beat the Prince of Hell and his dark demon henchmen to a pulp. Saving electricity and saving the world is a nice combination, isn’t it?
A tabletop game and matching RPG rules make it possible. We’ve got all the info for you

The manufacturer has already made a name for itself in gaming circles with other tabletop conversions of well-known titles, including Frostpoint and Dying Light. Now the action role-playing game from Blizzard is set to join the ranks. The official game description is:
The Diablo RPG will continue to explore the overworld and underworld of Sanctuary, providing adventures above and below ground with fan-favorite mechanics.
The price and an exact release date are not yet known. There is a reason for this, as a Kickstarter campaign is still pending before production to secure the necessary funding. However, Glass Cannon Unplugged is targeting 2024 for the market launch. Fitting, because that’s also when the add-on for Diablo 4 is due to be released:
The RPG rulebook, which is thematically oriented towards Diablo 4, serves as a companion to the tabletop game:
The RPG and the board game will support each other with interchangeable game components, shared accessories and complementary expansions with overlapping events in a fully integrated product line.
On the (official website) for the tabletop game you have the opportunity to sign up for notifications about the Kickstarter campaign.
