Alright, lore nerds—it’s time to speculate. That 2025 buy diablo 4 itemsroadmap teased some serious narrative developments, and I’ve got a theory: the Prime Evils are coming back in full force.

Let’s start with the teaser: “Old enemies reawaken in shadowed lands.” Combine that with the introduction of the Shrouded Highlands, a place with strong ties to pre-Sin War history, and it smells like Mephisto is just the appetizer.

I think we’re heading toward a Prime Evil convergence. Lilith is (allegedly) gone, but we never truly resolved the fates of Belial or Azmodan. Plus, Diablo himself has been suspiciously absent.

There’s a datamined reference to something called “The Eclipsed Flame.” Some think it’s a new cult, but what if it’s a reference to a merged form of Diablo or a rebirth ritual? We saw similar cult mechanics in D3 with the resurrection of Diablo through Leah.

Also, with the new class system being “deeply connected to Sanctuary’s primal elements,” there might be lore-driven powers tied to Nephalem origins or even ancient angel/demon hybrids.

Blizzard hasn’t gone this deep into lore teases in a while, and it makes me think they’re building toward a major expansion akin to Reaper of Souls. The fact that they’re rolling out these updates across 2025–2026 screams long-game planning.

Any fellow lore hunters got ideas? Am I crazy for thinking the endgame of D4 Materials for Sale is secretly a full-blown Prime Evil war?

Let’s dig into this.
