Diablo 4 Season 5 PTR Includes Lich King Frostmourne Models

Diablo and Warcraft fans galore – Models of the Lich King’s Frostmourne blade have been spotted in the Diablo 4 Season 5 PTR.

Two models of the legendary blade from the The Lich King were discovered by outlet Wowhead. This might suggest that Diablo 4 players will soon be able to wield the iconic mourneblade. Both the Lich King’s helm and Echo of Frostmourne already made their way to the latest Diablo entry as trophy slots, but Frostmourne might actually be added as a wearable blade.

As covered yesterday, Diablo 4 Season 5 will add a new roguelike mode to the game, new legendaries, items, and uniques. Also, weapon types will be expanded in this new season. Season 5 kicked on the PTR earlier today and is available on PC through July 2nd.  The new season is expected to release on August 6 – running two months before the release of the Vessel of Hatred expansion on October 8. We’ve included some additional details about this expansion below:

• Ranked among the apex predators of the jungle, the Spiritborn is an entirely new class to the Diablo series.
