Many fans were disappointed with the infographic, though the confirmation of two upcoming Diablo 4 IP collaborations caught their attention and sparked plenty of speculation as to what the crossovers would be.

‘There Are Some Good Surprises’ Blizzard Dev Addresses Diablo 4 Roadmap Frustration

Blizzard’s director of social and content marketing addresses the backlash from players following the recent Diablo 4 roadmap reveal.

Now, the first of these crossovers has officially been revealed – and not just for Diablo 4, but for Diablo Immortal as well. Berserk is coming to Sanctuary, with a collaboration between the iconic anime and manga series and Diablo coming soon. Blizzard teased this crossover via a short animated video featuring a Barbarian wearing Guts’ Berserker armor and wielding the Dragon Slayer sword to slay a horde of demons. This trailer was shared on several Diablo 4 and Diablo Immortal social media platforms, confirming that Berserk will be coming to both games in some fashion.

Berserk Collaborations Coming to Diablo 4 and Diablo Immortal

Berserk is a popular dark fantasy series written by Kentaro Miura that began in 1988. Though Miura passed away in 2021, the Berserk manga has continued under the supervision of his friend and fellow author Kouji Mori. Over the years, Berserk has received two anime adaptations, a trilogy of animated films, three video games, a spin-off novel, a trading card game, and even collaborations with other games like Dragon’s Dogma, among many other things. This has firmly established Berserk, and the main protagonist Guts, as easily recognizable across the globe. Given the dark themes explored in the story, it is a natural fit for Sanctuary.

Right now, few details are available for the Diablo x Berserk crossovers. Neither game has done an external IP collab before this, though both Diablo 4 and Diablo Immortal previously crossed over with World of Warcraft. The former’s collaboration consisted purely of cash shop cosmetics, but Diablo Immortal also had an in-game event featuring unique challenges and boss fights, as well as free, earnable rewards. It remains to be seen how the Berserk collaboration will go with these games – but judging from the trailer, players will probably be able to obtain the iconic weapon and armor used by Guts at the very least.

The crossover doesn’t currently have a release date, but Diablo 4 Season 8 starts on April 29, and runs until Season 9 begins in July. This would put a likely start date for the collab in May or June, so fans can probably expect to learn more information about it in the near future.
