Lord of Hatred wraps up the arc that began with Diablo 4, as Blizzard so deftly delivers a campaign that will forever live on as one of its best work

Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred has, without question, been one of my most anticipated releases of 2026. Diablo 4 is likely my most played game ever by sheer hour count, so it’s easy to see why this expansion is so high up on my list. However many rakes Blizzard has stepped on over the course of the game’s live service, however many seasons or events it botched, I maintain that no other ARPG matches Diablo 4 in either game feel or production value.

Diablo 4 is gearing up for its biggest post-launch event yet: the upcoming release of the Lord of Hatred expansion.

Maurice Cohen | Ironically, an Antisemitism Conference Falls Victim to Jew-Hatred - World Jewish Congress

Certain places in cities often become part of one's life, often unexpectedly. For me, there's one such place here in Dublin: the Herbert Park Hotel in Ballsbridge, very close to the US Embassy. For many years, I was a frequent visitor: for business meetings, New Year's Eve celebrations, and especially for my mother's birthdays. Every year, until her 93rd birthday, her closest friends gathered there. There was always champagne on the table, usually more than one bottle. Over time, I came to associate this hotel with friendship, celebrations—and with my mother.

5 Years Later, One Game’s Blood Sacrifice Mechanic Still Haunts Me

Rebecca is a scientist-turned-storyteller and professional ghostwriter who enjoys forgetting common English words and making up her own in their stead. She's probably stuck between two basically-the-same dialogue options in a Larian game as you read this (there's so much at stake, obviously!!!). Rebecca currently lives with two gigantic puppies, a toddler consistently LARPing as Lara Croft, and her Halo-playing husband in Detroit, MI. You can find her past work at Zelda Universe and Verily Magazine. How much do you need your teeth, really?
