Diablo Immortal welcomes its seventh class with the arrival of the Blood Knight — the first new class for Diablo in nearly a decade. Trained in an ancient spearfighting style from Gea Kul, Blood Knights possess an ethereal connection, battling inner darkness through a sacred ritual to wield their power against the threats plaguing Sanctuary.
"We're thrilled to unleash the Blood Knight in Sanctuary," said executive producer Peiwen Yao. "This vampiric class brings dynamic hybrid melee prowess, giving players the freedom to choose between aggressive physical assaults, harnessing blood magic, or something in between."
Blood Knight Spotlight
The Blood Knight class is available to all players for free. Signature skills include Shadow's Edge (slashing attack or dagger throw), Swarm of Bats, Siphon Blood (steal health from surrounding enemies), Abomination (absorb enemy blood to unlock Blood Rush and Shattering Fist), Skewer (impale and stun nearby foes), and Mephitic Cloud.
A unique combat mechanic lets players switch weapons mid-battle for different stances with temporary buffs — and these stance bonuses are available to every class. Players can also embark on the new story-driven Elite Quest to delve into the origins of the Blood Knights.
