Darkening of Tristram Event Starts Soon

The New Diablo anniversary is almost here. Prepare for the new Darkening of Tristram Event in Diablo III to celebrate the creation of the epic Diablo series.

Duration: The cultists appear on December 31 at 4 p.m. PST
 The portal opens on January 3 at 4 p.m. PST
The event ends January 31 at 4 p.m. PST

What you need to know is that to participate in the Darkening of Tristram event you will need to enter the special portal during the event dates. You can see how it looks below.

But the journey starts not from the dungeon. Below we will describe a step-by-step guideline for the Darkening of Tristram event.

Stop the Cultists

Your journey begins on the trail of a group of mysterious cultists causing trouble in Sanctuary. As you hunt them down in Adventure Mode, you’ll uncover clues leading to a portal into Tristram’s past, and the terrifying darkness that took hold of the town so many years ago.

Explore the Cathedral

Follow the clues and you’ll soon find yourself in a realm of glorious RetroVision™, where an all-too-familiar cathedral looms. Explore the depths and you’ll discover familiar enemies and iconic items, all brought to life in the Diablo III engine. Meanwhile, deep beneath the catacombs, the Dark Lord himself awaits any intrepid adventurer who dares to challenge him.

Discover Precious Loot

What is a Diablo game without shiny new loot to call your own? Completing activities in the anniversary event yields unique transmogrification effects, achievements, portraits, pets, and more.

While some rewards are easy to find, others may have you scouring every nook or unlocking every achievement before you can get your hands on them. Can you earn them all? There’s only one way to find out!

Enter the dungeon, reap your rewards, and survive the evils within—or die in the process, never to be heard from again.
