In Diablo 4, instead of Santa Claus, the Red-Covered Terror comes, great. There are still gifts.
The Christmas party in Diablo 4 is rather unusual: Sanctuary is haunted by frozen demons during the current event. And we get to hunt the monsters and dig through bloody piles in search of decorations. How contemplative! But at least Blizzard has also prepared a small Christmas present, that we can pick up in the shop.
What is being given away?
The little gift for Christmas is a small package with a cosmetic horse armor and two other items. You can see what the cosmetics look like here:
Diablo giving away horse armor? There’s a joke about Oblivion and microtransactions hidden in here somewhere.
If you want to secure the package, you should hurry up: Because the gift is only available until December 26th at 7 p.m. We’ll briefly explain how to pick it up:
- Opens the main menu
- Selects the Shop tab
- Scroll down to the section

If you don’t have time to play during the holidays but still want to take part in the Christmas event, you have a little longer. The midwinter plague is raging in Sanctuary until January 2nd.

Diablo 4: All information about the Midwinter Plague event in the trailer
The event’s quest can be found in Kyovashad with a new character named Gileon the Bard. You kill enemies and destroy their totems Corrupted Fragments
and Lost heirlooms
to collect. The more magnificently you decorate a place in Kyovashad with it, the more likely the event’s boss will appear – and that means loot!
By the way, you can get more rewards by exchanging collected resources. You can find out all the details here:
Have you already played the Christmas event up and down and collected all the available rewards? Or did you miss the start of the midwinter plague? Are you still playing Diablo 4 at all, and are you going to get the free horse armor or forego it? Feel free to tell us in the comments!
