Yes, that's the Monk in 4 places at once, punching everything in sight.
Last year at BlizzCon '08, I beat the Diablo III demo without dying, while playing as the Wizard. The spell casting, ranged attacks assured that I was usually far away from danger while basically torching every foe I encountered. This year I beat the Diablo III demo playing as the Monk, but not before biting the big one at least a dozen, maybe two dozen times. Needless to say, there were many moments of frustration, but they were far outweighed by the level of satisfaction I felt once I stepped away from the computer victorious. The Monk might be difficult to play with, but it makes winning all the more rewarding.
Hit the jump to watch the impressive footage shown at BlizzCon during the Monk's announcement.
