Diablo 4 Players Think They’ve Found New Evidence of a Secret Cow Level

Summary

SomeDiablo 4players believe they may have found clues that could possibly lead to a Secret Cow level in the game. While a Blizzard team member hasdenied the existence of aDiablo 4Secret Cow level, fans still can’t let this statement go. This has led to a subgroup of players consistently trying to uncover the secrets from within, especially since said level has been a franchise staple.

Originally started as a rumor when the firstDiablowas released, it finally made an appearance inDiablo 2. Even theResurrectedversion ofDiablo 2had kept the Secret Cow levelpresent.Diablo 3continued the tradition by including the level as an Easter egg in Whimsyshire. While the original intent was comedic in nature, the level usually contained Hell Bovines that would be armed to the teeth.Diablo 2’s version was an endgame destination that encouraged cooperative play and leveling up. WhileDiablo 4’s Secret Cow level has been consistently debunked by team members, some players seem to believe otherwise.

OneDiablo 4player is said to have discovered how to obtain three relics that may be needed to access the Secret Cow level. According to the player, 666 cows need to be slaughtered to get one of the three relics that allow the crafting of a key. The regions in which the 666th cow gets killed determine whether the player receives a Bloody Wooden Shard, a Musty Tome, or a Metallic Fragment. Once the key is crafted, it opens the Forlorn Hovel, a secret cellar that is a summoning location for a portal to the hidden level. The Forlorn Hovel is full of cows as expected, with one dropping a Stamina Potion as a reference toDiablo 2’s Cow King.

While the player believes there is more to be found, unfortunately, that is where the current progress of uncovering the Secret Cow level has ended. This is not to say that there isn’t more in store as the devs have been suspiciously quiet over all of these. And even though some members of Blizzard denied its existence, this recent discovery does give credence to what Blizzard presidentMike Ybarra responded on Twitter regardingDiablo 4’s rumored Secret Cow Level.

Diablo 4is only in its second season, titled Season of Blood. If history is any indication, the game will have a long shelf life and could introduce more content moving forward. Perhaps the discovery of the Forlorn Hovel is the beginning of more content relating to the hellish bovines which exist in the world ofDiablo.

Diablo 4is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
