Be careful, because playing PvP in Diablo 4's hardcore mode can result in permadeath

If you’re planning to try out PvP in Diablo 4 during a hardcore mode playthrough, be careful, because if you die, that’s the end for that character.

Hard game modes aren’t for everybody, and Diablo 4’s hardcore mode certainly won’t be either. That’s not just because the game will be tougher than normal though, as Diablo 4’s global community development director Adam Fletcher confirmed that playing in PvP on hardcore mode will mean you have permadeath to worry about (thanks, PCGamer). Fletcher responded to a question from a fan asking, “if you’re playing hardcore and you die in PvP, is it permadeath or…?” responding with a simple “Permadeath.”

Thankfully Fletcher did clarify just a smidge more, as he said that if you die in PvP while playing in hardcore mode, “you will have to make a new character.” If any of you are worried because you want to play on hardcore but don’t want to lose your character, don’t worry, as Fletcher also clarified you can avoid the Fields of Hatred, the area where PvP takes place. Permadeath in hardcore is mostly notable because previously it was believed that hardcore players don’t have to worry about it in PvP, but obviously something changed along the line.
