In Diablo 4, everyone is currently upset about Blizzard’s outrageous prices, but players from the biggest competitor know: this is still cheap

In Diablo 4, there is currently a new collaboration and many fans are very fond of the stylish cosmetics. Unfortunately, there is a problem: For many, the prices are far too high, especially if you want to buy multiple skins.

What is behind the outrageous prices? Since May 6, 2025, the collaboration between Diablo 4 and the manga “Berserk” has been running. Accordingly, there is an event in which demon slayers can earn free items.

Many players are particularly interested in the bundles in the shop. A total of 6 packages are available. Although the armors fit perfectly into Diablo 4, fans are now loudly complaining. The reason for this is the price, because to buy all the bundles, one must pay a lot of money and the players perceive this as unfair.

For fans of Path of Exile, this is still cheap!

How much do fans have to pay for all the items? Each package costs 2,800 platinum. If you want to buy all packages, you have to pay 18,500 platinum. Fans need to purchase platinum through the in-game shop. To obtain this amount of digital currency, fans are forced to pay up to €149.99.

Although there is a lot of interest, fans are forgoing the purchase. The following can be heard on Reddit:

  • “I really wanted to buy the pet and expected a price of ten dollars. After seeing the actual price, I quickly left.” – Natzor
  • “We all saw it coming, their [Blizzard] skins have always been outrageously expensive.” – PerfectStealth_
  • “Overwatch 2 has shown us that Blizzard doesn’t care about our wallets” – bryman530
  • “They are completely crazy if they think we will buy that. Oh, how far this company has fallen, damn it.” – UniQue1992

The disbelief is great, but when you look at Diablo’s biggest competitor, Blizzard’s prices still look like bargains.

How expensive are the bundles in Path of Exile? Path of Exile is also known for its bundles. They look good, mainly offer cosmetic items, and are even more expensive than the bundles in Diablo 4. The latest example is the supporter packs from early access. There are different packs, but if you want to have all/the most expensive pack, you have to pay up to €443.50 for the “Liberator of Wraeclast” pack – not including shipping of the physical goodies.

This is not an isolated case, even the largest core packs from Path of Exile 1 were offered for the same price as the “Liberator of Wraeclast” pack, should you choose the most expensive version. So when comparing the prices of GGG and Blizzard, fans of PoE can only laugh tiredly.
