Reports and leaks suggest that Blizzard’s Diablo IV will be released for the Nintendo Switch 2 in September 2026. Initial leaks indicated a mid-September launch window with a retail price of approximately $69.99, noting that physical editions might consist of a “code-in-a-box” rather than a traditional cartridge. Classification listings in Indonesia and Taiwan have reportedly supported these claims.

Subsequent details suggest the release may be titled the ‘Age of Hatred Collection’, potentially bundling the base game with the Vessel of Hatred and Lord of Hatred expansions. While Blizzard has not officially confirmed the release, series head Rod Fergusson previously stated that the Switch 2 hardware is capable of running the title.

Newer reports from industry leaker billbil-kun specify a potential launch date of September 15, 2026. This release is expected to be the ‘Age of Hatred Collection’, priced at approximately $69.99, £62.99, or €69.99. Pre-orders are rumored to begin on September 12, 2026, coinciding with the start of BlizzCon. While official announcements remain unconfirmed, speculation suggests they could occur during BlizzCon or at the Gamescom Opening Night Live event.
