We’ve already entered December, the last month of this eventful year filled with major releases that have shaken the video game industry like never before, with authentic successes like Expedition 33 or the recent arrival of Silksong on PC and consoles after so many years since its announcement.

We’re no longer expecting any major releases before entering 2026, but this month will bring significant additions and updates to games that have been active in the market for a long time, with Diablo IV being one of the best examples.

The Lord of Hatred Faces the Light in Diablo IV

This title has already been on the market for two years and since then, we’ve seen it receive major updates with a lot of new content, including its first expansion of the main story.

What we can expect is that Diablo IV will release its second expansion in late April 2026, bringing new story, new zones, new enemies, and the return of the paladin class, which arrives with a strong presence in its fight against the infernal hordes, as seen in the cinematic trailer presented.

This expansion will also bring significant changes to the gameplay in general, such as having more options and branches in skills and talents when leveling up and much more.

Diablo IV has had an intense year in terms of content seasons, and everything points to 2026 being an even bigger year for its odyssey of constant updates, which we’ll be keeping an eye on.
