Veteran players of the Diablo 4 universe can anticipate an intriguing crossover event, as Blizzard Entertainment has officially confirmed a partnership with the dark fantasy Manga and anime franchise, Berserk. Although the extent of this surprise alliance is yet to be revealed, preliminary reports suggest a combination of the dark world of Sanctuary with the iconic imagery of Kentaro Miura’s creations.
One of the largest reveals to this point is a Twitch Drop promotion for the Skull Behelit Mount Trophy. This cosmetic will make viewers think of the mysterious Skull Knight from Berserk and will be up for grabs to viewers who are watching participating streamers within the collab window. There’s a catch, though: winning this coveted trophy might take a little more than just watching.
From the wording of the announcement, it’s conceivable that obtaining the Skull Behelit Mount Trophy will involve buying or giving away subscriptions to some Twitch streams. This “support a streamer” component, as much as it might be rewarding for streamers, introduces a transactional feel to what is otherwise an effortless viewing reward.
In spite of this requirement for the Twitch Drop, the collaboration guarantees further in-game content that is available through play. Players can look forward to obtaining armor sets and mounts with Berserk-themed designs through playing Diablo 4’s content throughout the event. This guarantees that all players, whether they engage in the Twitch campaign or not, will have access to the crossover content and dress their characters in Berserk-themed designs.
As the Diablo 4 and Berserk crossover draws near, gamers impatiently wait for further conclusive information on the details of the Twitch Drop and the extent of the rewards within the game. An such historic blending of two dark fantasy worlds could bring about an experience to be remembered for the fans from both parties.
