PC specifications: A, B, AB, or O? As part of a new promotion that calls on Diablo IV players to donate their blood for in-game rewards, Blizzard has announced that it is planning to give away a custom, liquid-cooled Diablo IV PC that not only features some of today’s most powerful hardware, including an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 and Intel Core i9 CPU, but also “real human blood.” This sweepstakes won’t actually unlock until players successfully donate 666 quarts of blood, but all players in the United States over the age of 18 will be able to enter the contest regardless of whether they donated blood or not, according to Blizzard. “This is pretty gross and probably violates some law,” one player on the official forums said.
Every player will reap the benefits of those willing to contribute to the Blood Harvest—our goal is to harvest a total of 666 quarts of blood. Crimson-coated cosmetics will be unlocked upon hitting 33%, 66%, and 100% of our goal. Plus, once the grand total is reached, a sweepstakes for a custom liquid-cooled PC infused with real human blood will unlock; all players in the United States over 18 could enter to win, regardless of if they donated blood or not. Details, eligibility requirements, and official rules for the sweepstakes will be shared after the sweepstakes unlocks.
The PC will contain: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090, Intel Core i9 CPU, 64GB of DDR5 RAM, 3 TB SSD Storage, Quantum Vector GPU Waterblock. Image is for illustration purposes only. The actual prize will differ visually.
These in-game rewards will be unlocked for all players as we progress toward our donation goal.

Once we receive 666 quarts of blood from willing sacrifices, we'll unlock a sweepstakes to win a blood-infused cooling computer. pic.twitter.com/JixxF3GjUT
