You can play six classes in Diablo® IV: Barbarian, Sorcerer, Druid, Rogue, Necromancer, and the Spiritborn — the Spiritborn is the new class introduced with the Vessel of Hatred expansion. These are the core options you’ll pick from when creating characters and building different playstyles. Blizzard’s Spiritborn announcement confirms the expansion’s addition of the sixth class.
Each class has a distinct fantasy and role: - Barbarian — brute, weapon-swapping melee brawler - Sorcerer — elemental spellcaster (fire, cold, lightning) - Druid — shapeshifter with earth/storm magic and summon options - Rogue — agile ranged or melee hybrid with traps and mobility - Necromancer — summon-and-curse master of dark magic - Spiritborn — a hybrid martial/spiritual class that channels animal spirits for varied offense and crowd control. For an overview of how these classes were presented at launch and how the Spiritborn fits into the roster, see a comprehensive roundup of the expansion and class details. PC Gamer’s Vessel of Hatred coverage summarizes the class additions and what to expect from their playstyles.
