Blizzard Entertainment has announced the release of a new video and other details for fans eagerly awaiting its action RPG sequel, Diablo III. The new footage features the Monk class, and is part of an information roll out focusing on the five heroes players may choose in the game.

Also a sign that the game is nearing release, Blizzard has announced that the beta testing phase will end on May 1.
