Diablo 4 has almost finished its journey to the mortal realm, and frankly, we can't wait to be pulled through the ground and dragged to hell. Figuratively, obviously.

The return to the Diablo has been long-awaited and massively coveted, and now, it looks like we're finally getting to get our greasy hands on it. Greasy, predominantly from the shocking new collaboration between Daiblo 4 and KFC.

The new Diablo x KFC collab doesn't make much sense

There's a brand-new collaboration with the hellish Diablo 4 and king of Kentucky, KFC, but it's a little strange. That's one hell of a statement about the meat industry, if ever we've seen one.

The new Diablo 4 collaboration allows fans of the franchise to connect their KFC account (if you're dedicated to the fast food place enough to have one) to your Battle.net account, meaning you can claim some exclusive in-game cosmetic codes.

If you buy a sandwich or sandwich combo meal from the KFC website or KFC app, you can then redeem a code that will be sent to you for one of five cosmetic items. Players can collect over a series of orders all the way up until July 2nd.

There are even exclusive Diablo-themed bags for your food, if you're into keeping greasy sacks once filled with chicken as a collector's item. It's definite;y a strange crossover, but fans are already going nuts sharing their pickups - but there's one problem.

Diablo x KFC is a US exclusive

Sadly, if you want to grab these cosmetics from outside the USA, you might have to hire someone. The offer is only available to customers inside the United States and at selected KFC locations, so the likes of the United Kingdom are locked out of the promotions.

It's frustrating, as this implies that there's only a real chance to get these cosmetics if you're munching wings and popcorn chicken in the USA. Sorry, everyone else.
