Diablo 4 Season 1 Arrives with Exciting New Content and Battle Pass Rewards
The long-awaited Diablo 4 Season 1 has finally arrived, bringing a plethora of new content and rewards to the popular action-RPG. Players can now dive into a fresh adventure, complete quests, and earn exciting new items in this latest installment.
One of the standout additions in Season 1 of Diablo 4 is the introduction of Malignant Hearts. These unique items can be socketed like gems, similar to previous expansions, but offer a wider range of bonuses. Players will now have even more customization options to enhance their characters and create a stronger build.
Another exciting feature is the Season Journey, which offers a series of objectives for players to complete. By accomplishing these tasks, players will be rewarded with valuable items and experience points, helping them progress through the battle pass. Speaking of the battle pass, Season 1 marks the introduction of this new feature in Diablo 4.
The battle pass offers a variety of rewards and goodies for players to unlock, both free and premium. The premium tier, available for 1,000 Platinum (approximately $10 USD), includes cosmetic items such as titles, horse cosmetics, and a wide range of new transmog options. Additionally, players who purchase the premium battle pass will also receive 666 Platinum, the game’s paid shop currency, providing even more opportunities for customization.
For those who prefer to stick with the free tier, there are still plenty of rewards to be earned. The free tier includes various cosmetics and, most notably, the essential Smoldering Ashes. These limited items can be applied to passive stat bonuses for seasonal characters, enhancing their abilities as they progress through the game. However, it’s worth mentioning that the Smoldering Ashes require a certain character level to collect and use, with the first one becoming available at level 40.
It is crucial to keep in mind that progress in the battle pass can only be attained by playing Diablo 4 with a seasonal character. Playing on the Eternal Realm will not contribute to the battle pass progression, so players should carefully consider whether they want to embark on a seasonal character journey before purchasing the battle pass.
To get a closer look at the fantastic rewards awaiting players in Diablo 4 Season 1, below is a comprehensive list of every item available in the battle pass’s 90-tier progression system.
As players delve into the new season and immerse themselves in all the exciting content Diablo 4 has to offer, the battle pass will undoubtedly provide an additional layer of enjoyment and rewards. Whether players choose to explore the free tier or invest in the premium version, Season 1 promises to be a captivating adventure for all fans of the franchise.
