Belial Art Contest Brings Sinister Prizes

Staff Avatar by Staff

Blizzard are holding an art contest to celebrate Season 8 and the Lord of Lies’ return!

Players will have a chance to win cosmetics from the upcoming Berserk collaboration, as well as regular ones! There’s even a custom Berserk-inspired Xbox Controller and vinyl to be had! All you have to do is post your original Belial-inspired art piece on Instagram, tagging @playdiablo with the #BelialStyle and #DiabloContest hashtags.


As Sanctuary prepares for the onslaught of Mephisto, Belial steps out of the shadows, looking to seize Sanctuary for his own diabolical scheme in Season 8, Belial’s Return. In some ill-intended circles, it is whispered that those who pay homage to the Lord of Lies with accursed art shall receive his favor in return.

Welcome to the Belial in Your Style art contest. Submit your original artistic interpretation of the Lord of Lies for a chance at digital codes granting Diablo IV and Berserk cosmetics, along with a killer Berserk-inspired custom Xbox controller, and a limited-edition Beast in Black vinyl that includes an exclusive track recorded for the collaboration. Beast in Black is a Finnish heavy metal band who’s heavily inspired by Berserk. Their sound blends 80s power metal with EDM and synthwave.

How to Submit Art

Post your original Belial-inspired artwork on Instagram between April 28, 10 a.m.–May 6, 11:59 p.m. PDT. When posting, tag us with @playdiablo along with two hashtags: #BelialStyle and #DiabloContest for your submission to be considered. You can use any medium to bring your infernal vision of Belial to life, such as illustration, 3D modelling, sculpture, digital or practical effects…your twisted imagination is the limit. Tributes forged by your own will and effort will be considered only. No AI-generated entries will be accepted.

Once submissions close on May 6, five winners will be selected based on creativity, quality, and relevance by a panel of diabolical visionaries. Judges include Diablo IV principal concept artist Victor Lee, lead artist Kymba Plushner, and art director Nick Chilano.

We look forward to receiving your dark offerings, wanderer. To participate, you must be 18 years or older and live in an eligible region.
