Diablo III, also known as The Game That Keeps on Giving, may be getting a brand new character class at some point. The speculation is based on a piece of concept art that's signed by Blizzard art director John Mueller, and features two necromancers raising the dead. The picture was found on one of the company's servers, and once it was discovered, it was quickly removed - but not before fans had the chance to save copies of it.
While there's no absolute way of knowing that the art has anything to do with Diablo, it seems like a pretty reasonable guess, especially since there was a Necromancer class in Diablo II, but it was cut for the third game in favour of the Witch Doctor class.
It's also worth pointing out that BlizzCon 2016 kicks off later this week, so maybe the rumoured class will be revealed there? We'll be sure to keep you up to date.
Would you jump back into Diablo III if you could play as a whole new class? Don't side with the undead in the comments section below.

Give me a new Character,Expansion and some new trophies please.
Or Diablo 4?
Or nintendo switch exclusive character?
There were a few rumours about Diablo 4 weren't there? I have to admit though, I'd much prefer a sizeable expansion to D3 with new features and class than a brand new game. Not that I'd say no to a sequel but D3 has come so far and is such a solid foundation, that I'd rather see it built on instead of risking it all on another instalment.
Oh yes more D3 please...I never played D2, bring on the Necromancer!
I would like either expansion or new character class. I have it again on PS4 but need to rebuy it on PS3 to export my character to the new game.
Hoping it's Diablo 4.
I would rather a D3 Expansion over D4. We would get it a hell of a lot sooner that way.
@viciousarcanum @LieutenantFatman I doubt it will be Diablo 4. Blizzard's plan seems to be putting a game out support it for years with expansions, and other add on content instead of pumping out a new game every year or two. Look at WoW, Heroes of the Storm, Hearthstone and even Overwatch.
Neat. New trophies though?
We'll know this weekend, something will drop during Blizcon.
I think it's Diablo's 20th Anniversary...something big is happening.
I've platinumed this game 3 times. I ran out of things to do ages ago. I won't return just for a new class, but I would if there was new content!
