Hey, Daily Quest readers.
Two of gaming's most demon-slaying franchises are finally colliding. Diablo 4 has officially announced a crossover with Doom: The Dark Ages, and it's arriving as part of the game's Season 12: Season of Slaughter — launching March 11, 2026. We're talking free earnable cosmetics, Doom-inspired weapons, shop skins that turn your character into the Doom Slayer, and even a Cacodemon pet.
This is Diablo 4's most expansive crossover yet, and there's a lot to unpack. Let's rip and tear through all the details.
What's New In Season 12: Season Of Slaughter?
Before we get to the Doom goodies, let's talk about what Season 12 itself brings to the table:
- New Bloodied unique items
- The ability to temporarily transform into The Butcher (yes, really)
- A new Killstreak power system
- Free trial of the Paladin class up to level 25 (from the Lord of Hatred expansion)
Season 12 is already packed with content — and the Doom crossover is the cherry on top of a very blood-soaked cake.
Free Doom: The Dark Ages Rewards
Starting March 11, all players can access a Doom: The Dark Ages Event Reliquary containing 10 free earnable rewards. You unlock these by collecting 'Dark Ages' currency from defeating Elite and Champion monsters.
Here's what you can earn:
- Weapons reskinned with Doom: The Dark Ages aesthetics (including Doom's Shield Saw and Slayer Flail)
- The Forsaken Gates Town Portal (for claiming all 10 rewards)
- A chance at a Doom Chest from Lair Bosses containing Unique weapons with the appearance of Doom's Crucible blade
Free Emblems
Three free Doom-inspired Emblems will also drop on a staggered schedule:
| Emblem | Available |
|---|---|
| Dark Before Dawn | March 11 at 12pm PT |
| Grandeur of the Gutted | March 13 at 12pm PT |
| Rip and Tear | March 15 at 12pm PT |
All free. No strings attached. Just log in and claim them.
Shop Items: Doom Slayer Skins And More
Now for the premium stuff. Starting March 12 at 12pm PT, the in-game shop will feature a massive lineup of Doom-themed cosmetics. Fair warning — this is where your wallet starts sweating.
Armor Skins
| Item | Price |
|---|---|
| Doom Slayer Armor Pack (all 7 classes) | 5,700 Platinum (~$49.99) |
| Individual Class Praetor Skins | 2,500 Platinum (~$24.99 each) |
Individual class skins are available for Barbarian, Druid, Necromancer, Paladin, Rogue, Spiritborn, and Sorcerer.
Important note: The Doom Slayer armor skins were originally miscommunicated as usable across all classes. That's not the case — each skin is class-specific.
Bundles And Extras
| Bundle | Price |
|---|---|
| King of the Forge-Wing Bundle | 2,800 Platinum (~$24.99) |
| The Cyclopean Cackle Bundle | 2,500 Platinum (~$24.99) |
| Souls of the Lost Bundle | 2,500 Platinum (~$24.99) |
There's also a Cacodemon pet available for purchase, though Blizzard hasn't confirmed its price yet. And the Mecha Dragon Serrat mount skin can only be used with Diablo 4's cat mount.
The Pricing Elephant In The Room
Let's address it: these prices are steep. Buying everything would cost well over $100, which mirrors the controversy surrounding last year's Berserk collaboration where the full cosmetic set ran about $150.
The Berserk items were praised for their quality and authenticity, but the pricing drew significant backlash. Expect similar discussions this time around — especially with individual class skins sitting at $25 each.
That said, the free Reliquary rewards are genuinely generous, and you can enjoy the crossover's core content without spending a dime.
Final Thoughts
The Diablo 4 x Doom: The Dark Ages crossover is an absolute dream for fans of demon-slaying action. The free rewards are substantial, Season 12's new features look exciting, and the Doom Slayer skins are undeniably cool — even if they come at a premium price.
