The Necromancer class is coming to Diablo III

Loading

The class is coming to the game as part of the "Rise of the Necromancer" character pack featuring "other great features" in 2017. The pack includes a new in-game pet, "two additional character slots, two additional stash tabs (on PC)," along with a "portrait frame, pennant, banner, and banner sigil."Blizzard half-jokingly said the addition of the Necromancer class was part of a "thorough, in-depth analysis" of players' most requested character class. Necromancer concept art hinted at the expansion was first spotted earlier this week on Blizzard's official gear store.For all the latest Blizzard announcements, be sure to check out IGN's BlizzCon 2016 event hub
