Diablo 4 players have finally unlocked the long-sought Secret Cow Level, after piecing together quest rewards from the Lord of Hatred expansion to reach Cow Island and defeat The Cow King. The boss drops Cow King's Crown and a rare Prime Rib, whose flavor text hints at a potential encounter with a Cow God, prompting ongoing fan theories about what’s next in Blizzard’s cow-themed lore.
Diablo IV’s long-running 'secret cow level' keeps dragging on as fans uncover clues tied to the Horadric Cube, Neyrelle’s hand, a Trophy of the Faithful, and a torn journal page that opens a quest to a cow island and a temple; Blizzard hasn’t confirmed a real reveal, despite ongoing teases and datamined items like the Crown of the Cow King, while the Lord of Hatred expansion adds Paladin and Warlock and overhauls endgame and skill trees.
Diablo 4 players believe they have made progress in their search for the secret cow level, despite Blizzard denying its existence. One player named Grampa Joe gained access to the Forlorn Hovel, a cellar believed to hold the portal to the secret cow level, by acquiring three relics and offering them to the oxen gods. However, the trail goes cold after Grampa Joe received a Stamina Potion from slaying cows inside the cellar. Blizzard has disabled trading in the game due to a duplication exploit, making it difficult for players to obtain the necessary items.
A player named Grandpa Joe has made a breakthrough in the hunt for Diablo 4's secret cow level by accessing a mysterious new cellar called the Forlorn Hovel. After months of farming and overcoming hidden in-game timers, Grandpa Joe acquired all the necessary items and unlocked the hovel. Inside, killing the cows drops a Stamina Potion, reminiscent of Diablo II's Cow King. It is unclear if the Forlorn Hovel is the secret cow level or just another step in the chain. The secret cow level is a tradition in the Diablo franchise, and players are getting closer to uncovering the remaining secrets in Diablo IV.
Diablo 4 Season 2 has enabled the Secret Cow Level, and this guide provides step-by-step instructions on how to access it. Players must find three relics, cleanse them in the Ked Bardu Fountain, and enter the Forlorn Hovel. The relics drop from cows, and there is a hidden counter that requires defeating 666 cows. Each relic drops in a specific region. Once all three relics are cleansed and offered, players receive the Strange Key, which grants access to the Forlorn Hovel. Defeating the cows in the hovel rewards players with a Stamina Potion, but its purpose is currently unknown. Various cow farming routes are also provided for efficient farming.
Despite Blizzard's insistence that Diablo 4 does not have a secret cow level, players are convinced that it exists and are on a hunt to uncover it. Theories and discoveries include hidden quests, mysterious portals, and datamined items that may form part of a future quest to unlock the cow level. Blizzard is set to answer player questions in a campfire chat, but for now, the hunt continues.
