Blizzard revealed three classes for Diablo 5 at BlizzCon 2026, including returning Demon Hunter and Monk plus new Plague Knight, confirming the game is set after Diablo's victory over Sanctuary. The panel detailed a post-apocalyptic Westmarch as an "outpost of Hell," procedural worlds, gear-based sets, and multi-slot items. Developers emphasized community feedback will shape development, with regular updates starting in 2027. Diablo 5 will launch with more classes than any previous entry, and the team stressed Diablo remains irredeemable, focusing on consequences of his win rather than redemption.
