Blizzard Entertainment has announced the release date for the upcoming Necromancer-themed expansion pack for Diablo III.
The “Rise of the Necromancer” expansion pack will launch on June 27th across PC, Playstation 4, and Xbox One – for $14.99. Featured above, you can view a sizzle reel with footage of the newly reimagined Necromancer.
Here’s a brief synopsis of the Necromancer, via Blizzard:
Comprised of controlled, calculating individuals, the Priests of Rathma have long known the true stakes at the heart of the Eternal Conflict. Known to uneducated outsiders as Necromancers, these masters of blood, bone, and the dark arts are often misunderstood. Driven to protect the Balance at all costs, those dedicated to walking this path see neither good nor evil in their actions; simply obedience to the cycle of being.
In related news, Blizzard is looking to hire people for what could be a remastering of Diablo II, and even Warcraft III. You can read more about that here.
