Blizzard has released a wealth of new details on the upcoming Diablo 4 “Vessel of Hatred” expansion set to launch in October. The expansion introduces a sizeable cooperative dungeon, the Dark Citadel, where players must collaborate to access exclusive rewards. Governed by the First Khazra, this unique dungeon necessitates teamwork, recommending a full party of four to overcome its various challenges. To participate in this endgame activity, players must first complete an introductory quest which then unlocks the dungeon for every character on the account.
In the Dark Citadel, players will battle through three separate wings before eventually facing the dungeon’s final boss. This new dungeon, presumably larger than typical Diablo 4 dungeons, allows players to exit and return later. An innovative marker system will aid groups in navigating the dungeon. The game will also award players a Weekly Rewards cache for completing the dungeon, along with Citadel Coins for unlocking exclusive cosmetic items.
Simultaneously with the expansion’s new features, four unique mercenaries will be available for players in Vessel of Hatred. Depending on certain conditions, an appointed mercenary can perform a reinforcement attack. Through an in-game currency, Pale Marks, earned by leveling up each mercenary, one can purchase items from their chosen mercenary. Finally, players can look forward to the introduction of the Spiritborn class, a monk-style warrior that employs mighty Spirit Guardians as weapons.
