Season Launch:
The Season of Witchcraft commences on Tuesday, January 21st, at 10:00 AM PST. Players will embark on a quest to recover stolen heads from the Tree of Whispers, utilizing the Witches' potent witchcraft powers and newly discovered Occult Gems to overcome formidable foes. These gems unlock unique abilities, some echoing the mechanics of Diablo 3, adding a familiar yet fresh dynamic to combat. Victories over the mutated Headrotten Bosses yield valuable rewards, including more Occult Gems.
Enhancements and Rewards:
Season 7 also incorporates quality-of-life improvements, most notably a significant upgrade to the Diablo 4 armory, allowing players to save and switch between diverse loadouts. Players can anticipate a wealth of new seasonal rewards, including unique and legendary items, the coveted Raven pet (earned via the Season Journey), and exciting Battle Pass rewards.
Vessel of Hatred Expansion Bonus:
Possessing the Vessel of Hatred expansion unlocks exclusive seasonal content, granting access to three additional Runes during Season 7. While Blizzard has indicated that expansion-exclusive seasonal content will continue, its future scale remains uncertain. However, for the most comprehensive Season 7 experience, owning the Vessel of Hatred expansion is highly recommended.
Looking Ahead:
Diablo 4's commitment to ongoing seasonal content continues into 2025, with a new expansion anticipated this fall. While details surrounding this expansion remain undisclosed, players can anticipate a steady stream of engaging content to keep them immersed in the world of Sanctuary.
