If you love to slay demons with your friends, collect loot, and level up a character to better accomplish the aforementioned tasks and somehow
you don’t know about Diablo III, you should probably pay attention. The game will be released on May 15 globally, meaning that the countdown has begun.
Diablo III will put millions of fans’ expectations to the test. We have gathered all of the significant changes and innovations that Diablo III brings to the table to help prepare you for that day.

Classes and Followers

Diablo III will launch with five different playable classes: Monk, Barbarian, Demon Hunter, Wizard, and Witch Doctor. This time around, both
male and female options are available. Even though almost all of the classes are either direct ports or mash-ups from Diablo II, the wide variety of
skills and customization set them apart from their predecessors. You will have three different followers to choose from depending on your
preference and playstyle. Eirena the Enchantress will provide you magical damage and supportive spells. Lyndon the Scoundrel will supply you
with attack bonuses while assisting with the killing from a distance. Kormac the Templar will run to the front lines and can offer you healing when
you are in danger. Along with customizable equipment, your Follower now boasts a skill tree that you can control.
