When the Diablo 4 roadmap appeared it included two cases of the regarding phrase “New IP collab”. Worrying visions of skins that allow you to gown your rogue up as Jinx or your necromancer as, I do not know, Skibidi Rest room or one thing flashed by means of our heads. Thankfully, the primary collab to be introduced is far more tonally apt.
Diablo 4 and Diablo Immortal will probably be crossing over with Berserk, a preferred darkish fantasy manga and anime sequence with a vibe that aligns fairly carefully with Diablo’s heavy metallic aesthetic. Even when you do not know Beserk you will be accustomed to its look as it is the factor FromSoftware has ripped off repeatedly, and each fantasy saga the place an angsty dude with an outsized sword grumps round owes it a debt.
It may have been so much worse. Videogame collaborations can go both approach, with the injection of the Ninja Turtles and Hellboy into Injustice 2 being tremendous enjoyable and Magic: The Gathering’s Fallout playing cards surprisingly thematic. In the meantime, having The Witcher seem in Misplaced Ark was a conflict of tones that didn’t prove for the very best.
Blizzard hasn’t stated what type the Diablo x Berserk collaboration will take, however anticipate some appropriately edgy cosmetics on your barbarian not less than. And not less than one comically enormous two-handed sword.
