The Spiritborn is the first new class to come to Diablo 4 since its release, bringing an entirely unique set of abilities and interactions that haven’t yet been seen within the long-running series. Check out our breakdown of the Spiritborn’s skills, lore, and plenty more below!
When does the Spiritborn class launch?
You’ll be able to dive into the action as the Spiritborn once the upcoming Vessel of Hatred expansion launches on October 8, 2024.
This is the first paid expansion for Diablo 4, and it brings with it not only the new class but a whole new tropical realm of Nahantu to explore. This zone is innately linked to the spiritual abilities of the Spiritborn, so it serves as the ideal playground to test everything out!
Spiritborn skills breakdown
The unique strength of the Spiritborn class comes from its ability to call upon different Spirit Guardians, including the Jaguar, Gorilla, Eage, and Centipede. Each of these Spirit Guardians appears to have its own collection of skills to pull from, giving you a fantastic variety of actions to suit any situation.
Here are all of the skills for each Spirit Guardian and what they do:

Spirit Hall explained
After completing the Spiritborn-associated class quest unlocked at level 15 you’ll be able to access the Spirit Hall. This area enhances your connection to the four Spirit Guardians, allowing you to choose a ‘Primary Spirit’.

Once you’ve selected your Primary Spirit, you’ll get a special bonus and the selected Spirit’s Skill Tag will be added to all of your unlocked skills. This essentially applies the associated bonuses of the selected Spirit to the other three, so you can create some incredibly strong combinations if you choose correctly.
Spiritborn lore explained
Spiritborn are innately tied to the Spirit Realm, which was created once Inarius and Lilith altered the Worldstone. It acts as a ghostly reflection of the Sanctuary that we know so fondly, allowing animals and creatures to realm beyond their actual life permits.

Key to the Spirit Realm are the four Spirit Guardians that protect the area. Spiritborn are able to channel and connect to these four animals, making them very powerful individuals.
One central purpose of the Spiritborn is the dedication to Akarat and Ysevete’s mission, who initially discovered and nurtured what we know of the Spirit Realm today. They, in combination with the Spirit Guardians, aim to preserve the sanctity of the Realm, and it’s harmony with Sanctuary.
