The Diablo 3 add-on, Rise of the Necromancer, is now live in North America. EU players will see the new update go live at approximately 11:00 pm CEST. The Rise of the Necromancer DLC features new zones, updates to Challenge Rifts and, of course, the new Necromancer class.
As a master of the dark arts, you wield the powers of life and death necessary to restore the Balance! Necromancers are powerful spell casters who lay waste to their enemies using curses and reanimation—along with an obedient cadre of pets. This new class employs a controlled gameplay style using the raw materials of life: blood and bone.
You will need to purchase the Rise of the Necromancer pack for $15 to access the new class, but other content is free to all D3 players. Check out the video below for a peek at update 2.6.0.
