Summary

  • Gaming company Blizzard has announced that its action role-playing game (RPG) Diablo 4 will include crossovers, or “collabs”, with other franchises as part of its eighth season in the coming months.
  • The company released an animated teaser depicting a character dressed in armour resembling the protagonist of the dark fantasy anime series Berserk.
  • While the teaser generated interest in the potential crossover, some fans criticised the idea of collaborations as a marketing tactic.
  • Regardless, Diablo 4’s eighth season, Belial’s Return, will debut on 29 April, with the Berserk collaboration expected to arrive before the season’s end in July.
  • Fans believe that, at the least, the collaboration will offer cosmetic items, but may also include ramifications for gameplay.
