Diablo 5 is coming in spring 2029, Blizzard has announced.

Blizzard blew the lid off of BlizzCon 2026 with the surprise announcement that Diablo 4 is officially getting a full-blown sequel. It was widely expected that we’d see a new hero revealed alongside a new expansion, and we did see that, but Diablo 5 was truly unexpected. Naturally, we’re still in the early development stages at this point, but we did get a brief cinematic trailer teasing a horrifying world where “Sanctuary has fallen, and Diablo has won.”

“For the first time, you won’t be fighting to stop Diablo from taking Sanctuary, you’ll be entering a world where he already has,” says Blizzard. “There are no towns or safe places to protect you.”
