DIABLO: UNBOUND COMES TO GAMEFOUND IN Q1 2027!

We’re excited to our very core to announce Diablo: Unbound—the first-ever officially licensed Diablo board game!

Why You Should Follow the Project

The campaign is scheduled to launch in Q1 2027, but before then, we’ll be unveiling new information on our prelaunch page, which you can follow here:

By doing so, you’ll fulfill the first condition for receiving a free Follower Gift (the second is backing the campaign later with any physical pledge). The gift is a Gamefound-exclusive expansion that enhances the core game with a creature that has become a staple of the series since its first appearance in Diablo III—the Treasure Goblin.

The Gamefound Exclusive Treasure Goblin Expansion will grow throughout the prelaunch period, so be sure to check in often!

**What is Diablo: Unbound?**

Diablo: Unbound is a highly replayable cooperative action game for 1–4 players (yes, that means solo mode is included!), in which you will be hacking and slashing your way through dungeons, facing off against a bestiary of foes, all the while collecting gear and growing in power.

Genre-wise it combines multiple mechanics—including deck building and dice rolling—and offers a faithful recreation of everything you love about the Diablo series.

“You get the high-stakes showdowns of a boss battler—and hordes of monsters that never let up. But you don’t crawl through dungeons. You battle your way down. That’s why we call it a dungeon battler.” Jakub Wiśniewski, GCU CEO

How Do I Play?

First, you choose one of four fan-favorite character classes: the Barbarian, the Rogue, the Sorceress, or the Paladin (with more classes made available through stretch goals and future expansions!). You then set off on a journey across three acts, each consisting of three dungeon levels. In every act, you clear each dungeon of increasingly difficult monsters until you reach a unique boss.

Each character class comes with its distinct playstyle, custom mechanics, dedicated components, skill trees, and progression systems—which means a high degree of customization and multitudes of tactical possibilities.

As you clear each dungeon, you will be opening chests, completing side quests, hunting down Treasure Goblins, and building Kill Streaks by fighting through successive hordes of Mobs. All these things, along with killing Elite monsters, are how you obtain loot. The greater the danger, the greater the reward and—just like in the video game series—you never know what you’re going to get.

Our goal was to make the game highly modular, so that you can replay it multiple times and always experience something new. After completing the pre-designed three-act structure, you unlock Torment mode, which allows you to come up with your own combinations of dungeons, monster families (such as Khazra, Undead and many others), and bosses.

As for the story, Diablo: Unbound doesn’t offer a single linear narrative, but instead combines content from across the series, making it possible to revisit some of your favorite moments from the franchise.

A dungeon level takes approximately 60–90 minutes to play. There’s also an intermediate phase between encounters, where you portal off to a nearby town and spend your resources to improve your skills, manage your loot, and respecialize your build. A complete act takes about 3–4.5 hours of play—offering a complete Diablo adventure that you can play in one sitting or divide into shorter sessions using a save system.

Give the Game a Spin!

Make sure to visit us at this year’s SPIEL Essen (October 22–25). We will be available at a dedicated Gates of Sanctuary booth in Hall 1, booth C611, with four tables where you can play the demo throughout the entire event.
