Monks may have replaced paladins in Diablo 3, but shield-bearing, divine warriors are making a comeback in this new Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls trailer.

This character focus video for Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls shines the spotlight on the new Crusader class and its array of holy, offensive weaponry. The Crusader can shield bash enemies, use an ethereal horse to cross long distances and can change into a hulking giant. This behemoth of benevolence sets the tone of the Crusader to be much different than its demon-slaying cohorts and from the paladin class it was originally based.

Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls will spread hell on earth on March 25 for PC and PlayStation 4. Current Diablo 3 players will be able to transfer their PlayStation 3 saves of Diablo 3 over to the PlayStation 4 version of Reaper of Souls in a one-time transfer.
