The fan-favorite Necromancer makes his debut in Diablo Immortal’s closed beta. With the ability to raise the dead, it has the potential to be one of Diablo Immortal’s most powerful classes.

- Barbarian
- Crusader

Diablo Immortal New Changes and additions
The Cycle of Strife now offers a new PvP option called ‘Challenge of the Immortal,’ which features an exciting 30 (shadows) vs 1 (Immortal) encounter. Immortal players will get new abilities, effectively making them a Raid Boss that all shadow players must work together to defeat.
A ladder system is also being included in the 8v8 Battleground PvP system, where players will battle for the top spot. However, only the best of the bunch will receive keys to Helliquary, so the battleground ladder is something to keep an eye on. Players will be able to take on the Helliquary Raid Bosses in groups of up to eight, adding even more mayhem and cooperation to the battles.
