Blizzard "Doesn't See a Hurdle" to Bringing Blood Knight to D4 - Blizzcon Interview
While Diablo Immortal may have not had the least controversial launch in history, there are certain things that players have looked towards in the game as potential long-term additions to the Diablo universe — including their newest class. While Blood Knights are certainly appealing for some, there wasn't much hope that they'd ever be added to a mainline Diablo game — that is, until this Blizzcon! Lead Live Class Designer Adam Jackson stated that he «doesn't see a hurdle» to potentially bringing Blood Knights to Diablo 4 during a group interview, as reported by Yahoo! News.

While by no means is Jackson saying Blood Knights will certainly come to the game, in his group interview he speaks about the upcoming unannounced class, the future of Diablo 4, and adding features to the game to make things «cooler». Not every addition needs to solve a problem, Jackson says, and aims to have every addition make the game better. Jackson had this to say about the choice between creating new classes or bringing back fan-favorites from previous entries in the Diablo franchise:
When is the right time to bring something that we know people want? And when is the right time to really challenge the norms of even the ARPG space and try to push it, push the genre forward with something new? And I think our game needs to do both really well.
