Lord of Hatred: The DLC release in the live ticker
Monday, 27.04.2026

We will keep you updated here in the live ticker with all the current news regarding the release of Lord of Hatred. Currently, there is nothing to report. However, please note that the season only starts shortly after the expansion.
Even if you can log in directly at 1:00 AM, you should wait to create your character if you want to play the season and avoid playing anything twice. But if you want to get familiar with the Warlock, you can certainly use the time.
However, we are already expecting server problems right at the release.
Lord of Hatred – New campaign, new class, finally a cow level?
In Lord of Hatred, you will face Mephisto, one of the key evils in Diablo. The campaign lasts about 10 hours of gameplay (including cutscenes) before you are released into the endgame with new features such as:
- War plans, where you choose your own objectives
- completely new skill trees, which you even get if you do not buy Lord of Hatred
- the Horadric Cube for new crafting options
- the talisman that grants you set bonuses
Since a new class is being introduced with the expansion, the cow level is also getting closer. Here is the current community theory, that each class must throw a special coin into a fountain to open the portal to the cow level. Starting tonight, you can start to uncover the mystery yourself.
