After months of waiting for a release date, we finally know when the Necromancer is heading to Diablo III. The aptly named Rise of the Necromancer Pack will include the brand new class along with a bunch of smaller add-ons which we've listed below.

  • Non-combat pet
  • A pair of cosmetic wings
  • New Necromancer-themed Banner Shape, Sigil, and Accent
  • Necromancer Portrait Frame
  • Pennant
  • Two additional character slots

As expected, though, the content won't be free. Blizzard has it tagged for $14.99 in the US, so we imagine that it'll go for around £10 here in the UK. Right off the bat, the pricing seems a little steep to us. It's essentially just a new playable character, after all.

Anyway, if you're interested, the pack will be available in just under a week on the 27th June.

What do you reckon? Is it too pricey, or are you willing to pay the toll for an army of undead? Rise from your graves in the comments section below.
