Blizzard has come up with a very special competition to fuel a blood donation campaign: It’s giving away a high-end Diablo IV-themed gaming PC whose water cooling system is infused with “real human blood” if players donate enough of the life-giving liquid.
In the “Diablo IV Blood Harvest” blood drive, the Diablo community aims to collectively donate 666 quarts of blood (the equivalent of around 640 liters). The entire Diablo community will benefit from this, as hitting 220 quarts, 440 quarts, and 666 quarts will also unlock various cosmetic items in the Diablo 4 game. Once the blood donation goal has been reached, the competition for the custom gaming PC, which is infused with “real human blood” to some degree, will start.
At 220 quarts, a weapon skin is awarded. A 440 quarts, a barbarian outfit will be unlocked. At 666 quarts or more, a new mount as well as the gaming PC raffle will go live.
Only players from the USA can take part in the blood donation campaign, however, and people aged 18 and over can take part in the competition itself – regardless of whether blood has been donated or not.
Water cooling “infused” with real human blood
The prize is a high-end gaming PC with an Intel Core-i9-13900K, Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090, 64GB DDR5 RAM, an M.2 SSD with 3TB storage capacity and, of course, the custom water cooling system that is supposed to be “infused” with real human blood.
The promotion started back on October 20 and is set to run until November 22. At the time of writing, the drive was at 27 per cent of the 666 quarts of blood needed. The link to the official website of the campaign is DiabloBloodHarvest.com.
