Blizzard just announced the upcoming Diablo III expansion Reaper of Souls at this year’s Gamescom, but it seems we might already have some leaked details about the DLC. The Diablo fans over at the aptly named DiabloFans.com have datamined a leaked version of Reaper of Souls, revealing a number of new details in the process. Datamining is an imperfect science of course and details are prone to change before the release next year, but some of the biggest additions are summarized below:
- A new clan/guild system
- A competitive ladder system with seasons
- New bosses ad creatures
- New Legendary affixes and abilities
- New strength-based shield class called the Crusader
- A series of challenges called Nephalem Trials which provide rewards based on completion
- Additional passive effects for items
- Added artisan backstories and lore journals
- An “Adventure Mode” separate from the campaign
- Over a hundred new quests and objectives
More information can be found in posts on DiabloFans.com, where a veritable treasure trove of details (including cutscenes!) is being shared and updated. Check it out for yourself here, but beware of spoilers! Diablo III Reaper of Souls is set to be released next year for PC, PS3, and 360.
Breanna has been gaming since infancy, if gnawing on an unattended controller counts as playing a game. One of the younger members of the Gaming Trend family, she dabbled in PC games as a kid but wasn't fully consumed by the hobby until the sixth generation of consoles. Now an avid PC and console gamer, she looks forward to the day when she can scape together enough cash to join the next gen club.
In the last week of middle school, a math teacher taught her how to program a calculator; she was pretty much hooked then and there. Currently working towards a degree in Computer Science and Applied Math, Breanna hope to someday make games instead of just writing about them. Other hobbies include playing guitar, binge-watching Netflix, and cooking delicious food.
