PC Gamer magazine's new issue is on sale now: Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred

The latest PC Gamer magazine's new issue is on sale now, featuring a world-exclusive deep dive into Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred. This month, we bring you unprecedented access to Blizzard's HQ, where our team spent hours playing the climactic new expansion. We also sat down with the key developers working to bring this hellish ARPG expansion to life.

Inside the Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred Expansion

With Mephisto, the Prime Evil of Hatred, rising to bring doom to Sanctuary, PC gamers are facing a wickedly good challenge. However, players will have new tools at their disposal to fight back. The introduction of the Paladin and Warlock classes means that Mephisto might be the one who should be worried!

Written by Tyler Colp, this cover story explores why Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred cements Blizzard's status as the king of the ARPG genre. This special feature is a magazine exclusive available until May 27th, 2026.
