Blizzard's president answered about Diablo 4's Cow Level, making players even more curious to discover the truth. Diablo 4 continues the franchise's story where angels and demons battle in the Eternal Conflict. While the game expands Diablo's dark fantasy universe, Diablo 4's new mystery is something curious.To newcomers, the name may sound strange, but Diablo games have a tradition called "Cow Level." The Cow Level was seen in Diablo 2 under the name "The Secret Cow Level," and consisted of a small area filled with cows and the Cow King boss. The level returned to Diablo 3 with the fun name "Not the Cow Level" for a limited time, celebrating the game's third anniversary. Even World of Warcraft got its version of the Cow Level for a limited time as part of the Diablo franchise's 20th-anniversary celebrations.And to add even more mystery, Blizzard president Mike Ybarra gave a cheeky answer about Diablo 4's Cow Level. Ybarra responded to a tweet from IGN about Diablo 4 players hunting for the secret level, even though Blizzard insists that there's no Cow Level in Diablo 4. Bizzard's president used an animated GIF with a subtle and funny reaction, making players even more confused and intrigued. Even if Blizzard insists on the negative response, Diablo 4 fans remain convinced about the existence of this iconic easter egg that is the Cow Level.
The responses to Mike Ybarra's tweet were humorous, such as user pac0co laughing and saying that Blizzard's president "wasn't clarifying anything." While the mystery about the existence (or non-existence) of the Cow Level in Diablo 4 continues, the game is gearing up to receive its first season. With Season 1, Diablo 4 will introduce several changes, but not without first addressing player concerns with the Renown reset and the Altars of Lilith. Another important feature that is coming to the game will prevent Diablo 4 players from losing hardcore characters.
The base version of Diablo 4 brought a significant amount of content, like the character customization system that Diablo 4 players are using creatively. Blizzard promises to expand this content further by making seasonal storytelling and already having two massive expansions in development. With Diablo 4 developed as a live service and players in denial about the non-existence of the Cow Level, there is nothing to stop the Hell Bovines from appearing in the future.
Diablo 4 is out now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
