World of Warcraft: Dragonflightâs Diablo IV crossover kicks off today, and it has players scouring Azeroth for a different kind of demon than they are accustomed to finding, all in the name of scoring some hellish rewards.
The event, officially titled the Greedy Emissary, runs from now through June 14 across the gameâs capital cities and Dragonflight zones, where troublesome treasure goblins straight out of Diablo can be found. Once caught, the treasure goblins will offer up a variety of Diablo-themed cosmetics, including a mount.

Up for grabs are a few items players of Blizzardâs ARPG franchise will no doubt be familiar with. Wirtâs Leg, an item critical to unlocking the secret cow level in Diablo II (and which Blizzard insists isnât in Diablo IV), can now be wielded as a weapon in WoW. Players can also nab a Tome of Town portal toy, and a demonic goat pet named Baaâlial.
Thereâs a few other rewards too, including nice-looking Treasure Nabbinâ Bag back cosmetic, a hood and cloak ensemble, and most importantly, the Tyraelâs Charger mount, which sports the long, white beams of light that makes the angels of Diablo so iconic. The mount was originally offered in 2011 as part of a WoW annual pass promotion (which included a copy of Diablo III), before later being added to the MMOâs in-game shop for individual purchase. Itâs just the latest previously exclusive mount that Blizzard has released, having recently offered a number of old WoW Trading Card Game mounts via Twitch drops.
According to Wowhead, the conclusion of the event will kick off a 50% experience buff so players can make up for lost time post-Diablo IVâs launch.
Diablo IVâs early access release is right around the corner, arriving on June 2 for those who preorder the Deluxe or Ultimate editions of the game, or on June 6 for everyone else. Blizzard recently detailed all of Diablo IVâs accessibility options, and the crossover events for Diablo IV will continue in Blizzardâs mobile spin-off, Diablo Immortal.
In WoW news, the gameâs next update will take players back in time to witness the fall of the biggest dragon in Warcraft history, Galakrond, as part of a new mega-dungeon. It will additionally introduce a new type of DPS specialization for Evokers that has never been seen before, one that is more focused on providing DPS buffs to teammates than dealing damage on their own.
