Today, three epic forces collide: Diablo®, the legendary Action RPG; Berserk, the iconic manga by Kentaro Miura; and Finnish heavy metal band BEAST IN BLACK! 🤘 They’ve joined forces to unleash ‘Enter The Behelit,’ an exclusive new track! 🎶 The song is available on limited-edition vinyl and digitally worldwide, accompanied by a brand-new music video! 🎬
The Berserk crossover event begins in Diablo® IV on May 6th and in Diablo Immortal on May 1st. Both Diablo and Berserk explore the eternal struggle between good and evil, making this a perfect match for fans! 😈
The Maxi Single 💿
The limited-edition maxi single includes ‘Enter The Behelit,’ a brand-new track inspired by Berserk, plus remastered versions of ‘Die By The Blade’ and ‘The Fifth Angel.’ Beast In Black’s music often mirrors Berserk’s themes of struggle and battling inner demons, a perfect fit for the Diablo universe.
Limited to 200 copies, the vinyl features artwork from Diablo IV and Diablo Immortal, created in collaboration with the Diablo art team and the Berserk IP holders. It also includes a turntable zoetrope slipmat, band stickers, behind-the-scenes photos, and concept art.
“The essence that swells in boundless volumes from the juxtaposition of light and darkness, angels and demons, good and evil, the carnal and the spiritual, is the key that seamlessly binds together the aesthetics and narratives of Diablo, Berserk and Beast In Black’’, said Anton Kabanen, guitarist and songwriter on BEAST IN BLACK.
“To somewhat poetically reflect on this extraordinary yet congruous collaboration I can say it feels almost as if this newborn and destined-to-be trinity has been designed by the God Hand itself. On behalf of Beast In Black’s team I express our sincerest gratitude to the dedicated teams at Blizzard, Berserk and Nuclear Blast. Thank you for making this happen. And finally, my individual acknowledgement and bottomless gratitude goes – as always – to Kentaro Miura’’.
The track is digitally distributed by Nuclear Blast.
The Music Video 🎥
The ‘Enter The Behelit’ music video, directed by Katri Ilona Koppanen, blends the worlds of Diablo, Berserk, and Beast In Black. It features an animated trailer inspired by Diablo and Berserk, bringing the song’s story to life.
A behind-the-scenes “making of” video will also be released.
