With Diablo 4 being released for over a month now, players are anticipating the start of Diablo 4 Season 1. When exactly does the “Season of the Malignant” begin for players?
The good news is that players won’t have to wait too much longer as Diablo 4 Season 1 (Season of the Malignant) will start on July 20 at 1 PM ET, 10 AM PDT, 12 PM CT, and 6 PM GMT. Depending on if there are delays or how long the maintenance for the new Season is, the following times are subject to change.
Along with the release of the new Season comes the Season 1 battle pass. Similar to other titles that also feature a battle pass system, the Diablo 4 Season 1 battle pass has three different methods for players to progress throughout the pass.
The Season 1 battle pass contains a single reward track that grants players both free and premium rewards meaning if you purchase the premium track, you’ll receive two items instead of one. Each Season will have different limited-time items and will never be the same as before. The battle pass will last for 3 months and should take players around 75 hours to finish the entire pass.
As the new Season starts, your character has to follow suit. In order to access the new season, players are required to make a new seasonal character as their character in the Eternal realm cannot progress in seasonal content. According to Diablo’s General Manager at Blizzard, Rod Fergusson on Twitter, playing the campaign with your seasonal character will also progress the battle pass and Season 1 journey.
The amount of rewards that you’ll receive as you progress through the battle pass all depends on whether you purchase the Premium Track. While all the items included in the battle pass haven’t been fully revealed, the following is known so far.
Stay tuned for more gaming content, including Diablo 4 and newly released titles.
