00:00Well, Blizzard just blindsided the entire fan base at this year's BlizzCon because Diablo 5 was just announced, and it
00:05is not the game you're expecting.
00:07Usually we have to wait a whole decade for a new Diablo game, right?
00:10This time, everything is different, including a story twist that is actually insane.
00:14Every other Diablo game, you're the hero stopping the apocalypse before it happens.
00:18This time, you're too late. Diablo already won. Sanctuary has fallen.
00:23He's literally ruling from the throne in West March, using people's souls as weapons.
00:27And the reveal cinematic shows angels nailed up on crucifixes. It's bleak.
00:31You play the heir to West March, running through the burnt remains of a kingdom that used to be your
00:35home.
00:36And here's the creepy part. You're somehow connected to Diablo himself, which means he can mess with your head in
00:41ways no villain ever has before.
00:43And there are no towns, no safe zones. You survive by building a caravan of allies who travel with you.
00:49One of them's an ex-nun. Another's literally a stranded treasure goblin.
00:53Some classes are already confirmed, too. Demon Hunter, Monk, and a brand new one called The Plague Knight.
00:58The release window is super far away, though, and currently set for Spring 2029.
01:03What do you think about all this?
