Lord of Hatred – The First 12 Minutes of Gameplay (Plus the First Boss Fight)

Get a look at the first dozen minutes of gameplay – driven by a Paladin, and concluding in a boss fight – from Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred, the upcoming second expansion to Blizzard’s popular action-RPG sequel. This gameplay shows the beginning of the journey to Skovos, the new region joining Sanctuary with Lord of Hatred. Watch it above.

This is the second content drop in our month-long exclusive coverage of Lord of Hatred through our IGN First editorial program. Look for more exclusives as April rolls along and we get closer to Lord of Hatred’s April 29 release date.

Our first Lord of Hatred exclusive was “The Queen and the Saint” in-game cutscene we debuted last week, which you can watch directly above. And if you’re interested in playing Lord of Hatred but it’s been a minute since you played Diablo 4, get caught up on the story before the second expansion is released.
