Korn Surprise-Releases 'Reward The Scars' for Diablo IV Expansion

The tie-in spotlights Blizzard’s plan to market the April 28 Lord Of Hatred release through marquee artists.

Overview

  • The single released Thursday marks Korn’s first new music since 2022.
  • “Reward The Scars” appears on the Diablo IV: Lord Of Hatred soundtrack, with the expansion due April 28 on major consoles and PC.
  • Korn says the song was written with direct inspiration from Diablo IV’s demon-hunting world.
  • Credits list producer Nick Raskulinecz, engineers Matt Hyde and James Harley, mixer Chris Lord‑Alge, and mastering engineer Ted Jensen.
  • The release lands days before the band’s Sick New World set in Las Vegas, a timing that could draw new listeners from the game’s audience.
