Diablo 4: Vessel of Hatred – New Spiritborn Gameplay and Origins Revealed

Mephisto returns to the world of Sanctuary in Diablo 4’s Vessel of Hatred expansion. While players will rise to fight him, the long-dormant Spiritborn class also joins the fray. A new trailer is available, highlighting how the class came to be and what it can do. Check it out below.

From childhood, select members become Spiritborn, with only a few succeeding in answering the call. By calling upon Spirit Guardians, they can unleash all kinds of abilities. These include a powerful leaping attack followed by a fire area-of-effect, fiery claw swipes, flame dashes, icy boomerangs, an electric vortex, and spreading pestilence to foes.

Of course, players can also call upon a gorilla-esque Spirit Guardian and lay waste to foes with a giant physical attack. Stay tuned for more details on the Spiritborn and their kit.

Diablo 4: Vessel of Hatred launches on October 8th for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. Check out the opening cinematic here.
