Diablo 4 Update 1.70

Blizzard Entertainment has released Diablo 4 update 1.70 on all platforms this November 5, and this is a minor patch that aims to resolve stability issues with the RPG. Alongside that, we also detailed the recent hotfix released that affected how Obducite would drop and more.

Diablo 4 Update 1.70 Patch Notes:

Per Blizzard, here’s what’s new for today’s client download:

Bug Fixes

  • Various stability improvements

Just yesterday, the developers released Hotfix 1 for patch 2.0.4 which we’ve included below for reference.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where Obducite could drop outside of a Nightmare Dungeon after a Sigil was activated.
  • Fixed an issue where player health would be set to 1 and healing would not function after using a Scroll of Escape after a Impending Doom occurred in the Dark Citadel.
  • Various server performance and stability improvements.

That’s about it for this title update. Of course, given the Vessel of Hatred expansion and update were rolled out just last month, don’t expect any major content drops for a while. Speaking of which, you’re still on the fence whether to get the expansion or not, go read our review where we state, “Vessel of Hatred doesn’t break any new ground and surely won’t make any new converts to Diablo 4, but it offers a nice compromise between familiarity and novelty, while pending more to the former.”
