About HellCodex
An independent fan source for Diablo V news, guides, lore and analysis.
HellCodex is an independent publication about Diablo V. It exists because the years between an announcement and a release are exactly when information is worst: a claim made on stage gets repeated until it looks like a fact, and nobody records the moment it stopped being true.
Our answer is simple and applies to every page on this site:
- Confirmed information and rumour are never mixed.
- Every claim carries a primary source and the date it was last checked.
- Changes during development are documented instead of silently overwritten.
- Individual news items are folded into permanent topic pages.
Trust states
Every article, fact and FAQ answer carries one of five visible states: Confirmed, Developer statement, Analysis, Rumor or Outdated. The label is always written out, never conveyed by colour alone. See the editorial policy for what each one requires.
Independence
HellCodex is funded by clearly labelled advertising. We do not sell rankings, coverage or positive reviews. See how we handle advertising.
