The worlds of Sanctuary and Azeroth seem like they will go over for the d4 items' upcoming launch

Diablo IV's launch is appropriately around the corner, so when it does arrive, it appears like adventurers in World of Warcraft can take advantage of the special day.

Via Wowhead, a data mine from the latest public test realm build for WoW: Dragonflight's upcoming 10.1 patches (that is slated to reach May 2) has revealed numerous Diablo-related references and items, in addition to descriptive text talking about an event called "The Winds of Sanctuary." Here's the precise wording from the data-mined text:

"Strange winds blow in from another world. Sightings of odd, bag-holding creatures see the land, and heroes are full of renewed vigor. Treasure Goblins could be spotted from TBD to TBD. The Winds of Sanctuary blow in from TBD to TBD."

"TBD" means "to become determined," therefore it seems like Blizzard hasn't quite set the dates for that event in stone at this time. However, thinking about the event being Diablo IV related, you might assume that the event occurred sometime near Diablo IV's June 6 launch.

A quantity of Diablo-themed items has appeared within the PTR build that appears to be associated with the event and may possibly be rewarded for locating the treasure goblins mentioned within the event's description. WoW, players can get their hands on Wirt's Leg, a cosmetic Treasure Nabbin' Bag, a 16-slot bag named the Horadric Haversack, as well as an Emnity Hood and Cloak cosmetic. One of Diablo's Lesser Evils--Belial, the Lord of Lies--also looks to become coming to WoW in the form of a battle pet named Baa'lial.

Last but not least, it appears like WoW players can enjoy a 50% experience and 8% reputation buff for that duration from the event, although the reputation buff won't apply to WoW's soon-to-become-added new Renown faction, the mole-like tiffin.

It would not be the first time there is a crossover between WoW and Diablo. Blizzard previously ran a unique Diablo event in WoW in honor of Diablo's 20th anniversary in 2017 that included references to iconic Diablo things like the Horadric Cube and Stone of Jordan, and people who preorder Diablo IV on PC will also get a demonic mount to make use of in Blizzard's long-running MMORPG.

Blizzard recently detailed just what players are going to be up to in the d4 items endgame, hot on the heels of the game's open beta that saw a lot more than 2. Six million players reach level 20.
