The Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred Scovos map appears to have been leaked online

Posted on Reddit by user SheWhoHates, an article by German website Gamestar includes an image of what appears to be an in-game map of Scovos. Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred. The post goes into the publicly available details of the upcoming expansion, but the inclusion of this image appears to be new. A reverse search of the image yields no other results, pointing to the Gamestar article as the only source, leaving the map's authenticity in question.

However, as user SheWhoHates points out, there is a major disconnect between this leaked map and the map shown on the official one. Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred Page for the new battle planning mechanic. Comparing these two map layouts they are almost identical, lending to the authenticity of the newly leaked one. With no other source to verify its authenticity, the map included in Gamestar's article will be considered unverified until Blizzard officially confirms it.

The leaked image includes a breakdown of Scovos into 7 sub-regions, including:

Philios
Temis
Lycander
Athulua
Atanos
Celestia
Skortara

Previous renderings of maps of the sanctuary show Skovos included in the island chain of Philios, Lykander, and Skrtara islands. However, this new map includes the locations of Temis, Athulua, Atanos and Celestia, supporting the idea that this is a new incarnation of the region designed specifically for the Lord of Hatred.

There is still the possibility that this is a fan-made map, as it differs in a significant way from Skovos' past renderings. According to the sanctuary map shown in The Book of Lorath sourcebook in the Horadric Vault series, Skovos is very loosely connected, with Philios, Lykander, and Skrtara being completely separate islands. However, in this newly leaked image, Skovos appears as one large, interconnected island with these new sub-regions connecting the previously known islands, suggesting a major change in canon if this image is indeed real.
