While unlikely to convert any new adherents, Vessel of Hatred provides plenty of reasons to return to the dark world of Sanctuary. The Spiritborn class is the biggest draw here, but exploring Nahantu and delving into a dark new storyline make Vessel of Hatred worth the entry price.

The new Spiritborn class's centipede Animorph is a great addition, and mercenaries widen buildcraft significantly. But Diablo 4's core loop is still mostly unexciting, and the story here feels thin and laboured.

The Vessel of Hatred expansion meaningfully expands on the content offered by Diablo 4 with the game's most exciting class and captivating spins on the dungeon-crawling formula.

This stellar expansion hits all the right notes, but only feels like the first act to a larger adventure.
