It’s Halloween season and Blizzard wants your blood. The video game studio launches its game Diablo IV a blood donation contest, as part of an in-game event. Every person who resides in the United States and donates blood through November 20 will be able to unlock in-game rewards. Blizzard announced this in a press release on October 20. by the specialized media Gamespot.
But the final reward is much more surprising: Blizzard promises not only virtual profits, but also a real computer “impregnated with human blood.” In the event’s FAQ, the editor insists and confirms that in a drawing held among participants, a “personalized, liquid-cooled computer infused with real human blood” can be won.
“666 quarters of blood”
Whether there’s blood in the machine or not, you’ll have enough to keep you warm, with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card, a Core i9 processor, 64GB of RAM, and 3TB of storage. It will also be personalized with the colors of the event: red, therefore.
To claim this reward, players must collectively fill a meter with approximately 630 liters of blood. The figure has not been chosen at random: according to American measurements, this corresponds to 666 “quarters” of blood.
This indicator has three levels: the first allows you to gain weapons in Diablo IV, the second allows you to win armor and equipment, and the third allows you to participate in the drawing to win the computer. Currently, the meter is 27% full.
Although French players are unfortunately excluded from this event, it is still possible for them to donate blood at one of the establishments on this list of the French Blood Establishment.
