2025 is almost over, but Diablo 4 players are already hyped for what is next. From better loot to new skills, expansion, and some nice surprises, 2026 looks like it is going to be an exciting ride in Sanctuary.
Here is a small overview of what players are the most excited about in Diablo 4 for 2026!
Loot Filters – Finally, Some Peace for Our Stash
One of the most requested improvements since the launch of the game was a loot filter system.
Let’s be real, inventory management can be a nightmare in Diablo 4. That is why everyone is talking about loot filters now that they have been confirmed for the game. The idea is simple: hide or auto-salvage all the junk so you can focus on the good stuff. This is probably the most-awaited quality-of-life addition!
A Better Endgame
The classic Pit and Helltide runs are fun, but doing the same thing over and over gets old fast. That is why the new “war plan” system is so intriguing.
From what we know so far, War Plans will apply unique modifiers to your favorite endgame activities. Players are also hoping for a system where you basically get to string together your own endgame challenges, so with bosses, hordes, towers, you name it, for bigger rewards.
It is most likely like a DIY endgame content map, and honestly, it sounds way more fun than just spamming the same thing over and over again.
Skills, Builds, and Messing Around With Classes
2026 might also bring a bunch of new skill variants and build changes, and that basically means more ways to play your favorite classes.
The Paladin update this season was super fun and flexible, and players are hoping other classes get the same love. With the upcoming skill tree changes, older classes could finally feel new and exciting again, letting us experiment and try out new combos.
Nostalgia and Weird Fun Extras
Some classic Diablo content is getting love, too. We know that the Horadric Cube will come back in some way, and everyone is still waiting for the Cow Level (although we do not have any information on that one).
And yes, fishing in Diablo is apparently a thing some players are actually excited about. Chill, unexpected, and kinda fun, why not?
New Classes, Expansions, and More to Explore
Finally, there is the second new class, new zone, and expansion. Players are excited to explore more of Sanctuary, try out new abilities, and play through the next campaign. Between all the QoL improvements, endgame changes, and new content, 2026 is going to be a pretty good year for Diablo 4.
Get ready for a year full of opportunities to discover, strategize, and fight your way through Sanctuary with better loot management, more endgame variety, creative builds, and a touch of nostalgia.
