Blizzard Entertainment has the next set of activities and new content lined up for Diablo 4, and it’s due next week! The Diablo 4 new season is titled “Season of the Construct” and starts January 23, 2024! Read on for what to expect from it.

Diablo 4 New Season – “Season of the Construct” Details:

Start Time: January 23, 2024 at 10 am PT/1 pm ET/2 am HKT

SEASON OF THE CONSTRUCT
  • Created by Zolton Kulle and Ayuzhan of Caldeum, an ancient technology known as the Loom has been usurped by the Demon Malphas. In this all-new quest line, team up with Zoltun’s former companion, Ayuzhan, to defeat Malphas and his deadly constructs.
  • Visit the Gatehall, a new town center underneath Kehjistan, which will serve as your base of operations in the fight against the Constructs.
  • You will acquire your very own Seneschal Companion during the Seasonal Questline which will fight by your side and can be customized to fit your playstyle.
  • Using magical Governing and Tuning Stones recovered from the Vaults, you can augment the Seneschal. Governing Stones determine which attacks your Seneschal perform, and Tuning Stones augment those skills and provide greater utility.
  • Vaults are a deadly new dungeon riddled with various elemental Hazards and a new monster family, The Constructs. At World Tier III, Nightmare Vaults will unlock.
  • When entering a vault, you can convert Pearls of Warding and be blessed by Zoltun’s Warding, a special layered blessing that grants access to riches within the Vaults. These will diminish stack by stack if you fall prey to the Hazards within. Pearls of Warding can increase the risk by exchanging them for stacks of Zoltun’s Warding, but success will see your reward increase as well.
  • Pearls of Warding can be obtained from destroying Elite Constructs during Arcane Tremors in the overworld.
LEADERBOARDS AND QUALITY-OF-LIFE UPDATES
  • The Gauntlet is coming soon after the start of Season of the Construct! This is a weekly rotating fixed dungeon where players can compete for the top spot on the leaderboards. Top weekly scores will earn a permanent place in the Hall of the Ancients. More details will be revealed in a future update.
  • Helltides will now always be active with a 5-minute rest once per hour.
  • Those on PC can now traverse Sanctuary by using W-A-S-D keys on the keyboard.
  • An extra Stash Tab is now available. Other improvements have been made to reallocating your skill tree, UI when trading Gold, and increased rates to earn summon items for the Beast in the Ice, and more!
