Diablo 4 DLC: What New Contents Will The Development Team Add To Attract Prodigal Players Back?

April will be a very competitive month. There are three games of the same type, including Diablo 4, that will be updated this month. Diablo 4 is at the end of this month, Path of Exile 2 is at the beginning of this month, and poor Last Epoch is sandwiched in between them. All three games will usher in a new season in April, and all players will have to start from scratch. Whether it is Diablo 4 Gold, Last Epoch Gold or POE 2 currency, they will be reset to zero. There is a lot of new content waiting for players to experience. Diablo 4 has the best graphics and the largest fan base, but this does not mean that Last Epoch and Path of Exile 2 cannot pose a threat to it. In fact, the fan bases of these three games overlap a lot, so they face fierce competition. Diablo 4 Season 8 The new content of Diablo 4 Season 8 is mainly the new pinnacle boss Belial and the new season power Boss Powers. In PTR, this is a more powerful force than Witch Powers in Season 7, and can even serve as an important way to output damage. Therefore, it is obvious that in the builds of Season 8, Boss Powers are more important than Witch Powers. But players should not be too happy too soon. Boss Powers can only be obtained through the seasonal event Apparition Incursions in Season 8. Similarly, if you want to upgrade Boss Powers, you also need to farm Apparition Incursions again and again. There are very few upgrade materials available in the early stage of the game. Even if you reach Torment 1, it takes a long time to upgrade Boss Powers to the maximum rank. To make matters worse, the developers increased the difficulty and reduced the drop rate of legendary items in Season 8. As a result, players will be much slower in the early stage of the game, whether upgrading or farming Diablo 4 Gold, than in Season 7. For casual players, such changes make them not very satisfied. They don’t have many opportunities to get legendary items. Now that the drop rate is reduced, it will be more difficult for them to get legendary items in the new season. In addition, many players are also dissatisfied with the developer’s delay in releasing Season 8. POE 2 Patch 0.2.0 Path of Exile 2 is definitely the strongest competitor of Diablo 4. Although it still lags behind Diablo 4 in terms of graphics, the gameplay depth of Path of Exile 2 is much deeper than that of Diablo 4. It has a rich skill combination and replaces the gold economy in Diablo 4 with a currency system. In comparison, the skill tree bound to the class and the equipment crafting system with great restrictions in Diablo 4 are not good enough. But this also makes Path of Exile 2 very complicated. New players need to learn for a long time to understand the role of various mechanisms. Players who like simple things may prefer Diablo 4. The current game content of Path of Exile 2 is not complete. The game currently only opens the first three acts and the endgame content. In the 0.2.0 patch, the seventh class Huntress and the new endgame boss battle will be added. The new boss is related to Tetzcal, the Blazing Guardian. In addition, new weapons and new unique items will be added to the game. It can be said that the ambition of Path of Exile patch 0.2.0 is very big. However, Path of Exile 2 is currently only a semi-finished product. Players who want to experience POE 2 with 12 classes and a complete 6 acts may have to wait until 2026. Last Epoch Season 2 If you plan to find a balance between Path of Exile 2 and Diablo 4, then this balance may be Last Epoch. Last Epoch has a more interesting class system and a complete plot than Diablo 4. Because it is a small studio, the art of Last Epoch cannot be compared with Diablo 4 and Path of Exile 2. The official name of Last Epoch Season 2 is The Tombs of the Erased. The main content of the second season is to add some end-game content, introduce a new faction called Woven, and remake of Sentinel class. Last Epoch may not pose too much threat to Diablo 4, but it can be an excellent substitute for Diablo 4. In addition, the original release date of Last Epoch Season 2 was April 2. But since the release date of the new patch of Path of Exile 2 was postponed to April 4, Last Epoch did not intend to compete with it directly, so the release date was postponed for 2 weeks. This is undoubtedly a wise decision. In addition to the above two games, the pixel-style game Legacy of Baal inspired by Diablo 4 will also be officially launched on Steam in the second quarter. It certainly does not pose any threat to Diablo 4. But it can let you find a little fun while waiting for the eighth season. There is still nearly a month before Diablo 4 season 8 is launched. If you are already tired of the seventh season, then these two Diablo-like games can enrich your April.

Diablo 4 Season 7 will soon replace Season 6 and meet with players. Season 7 will be officially launched on January 21, 2025. The theme of this season is Witch Power. Players can obtain 4 different schools of Witch Power by increasing the reputation level of Coven. There are 20 levels of Coven reputation in total. When you open these reputation chests, you can get a variety of equipment, gold, unique items, materials, potions, etc. At the same time as Season 7 is launched, Diablo 4 Season 7 Battle Pass will also be launched. Unlike the reputation reward chests of Coven, Season of Witchcraft Battle Pass will have a total of 90 rewards for players to unlock. Season 7 Season 6 have lasted for a long time. Season of Hatred Rising brings a new class, Spiritborn, to players. This class is very powerful. Apart from the bugs of this class, it is also one of the best classes. At the same time, have you unlocked the rewards of Season 6 Battle Pass? The armory in the Season 6 Battle Pass is really cool. Of course, the armor in Season 7 Battle Pass is also very cool. Compared with the blue armor in Season 6, the armors in Season 7 equipments are dark and mysterious. This matches the theme of Season 7, Witch Power Season. The story on Season 7 is a continuation of season story. Players need to get a task from the Witches of Hawezar faction to find the heads stolen by the Tree of Whispers. These stolen heads will wander around the shelter, looking for a suitable body. Players and Hawezar witch faction are mutually beneficial. Players protect Sanctuary as wanderers, and Hawezar Witch faction teaches players Witch Powers. Battle Pass Battle Pass has a total of 90 unlockable rewards, 28 of which are free and can be unlocked by all players. Battle Pass provides players with resources such as Diablo 4 gold, materials, and buffs. Players who unlock Premium Pass can get all 90 pass rewards. New appearance transmogrifications and mounts are available in Premium Pass, in addition to rewards such as town portal skins, badges, and emotes. How To Progress Battle Pass It is not very difficult to progress to Battle Pass. Basically, as long as you participate in various activities in Season 7, your Progress Battle Pass will naturally progress. There are two most direct ways: Earn Favor Unlock Tiers Earn Favor is the item that players will get in the normal game. It is closely related to Witch season and Tree of Whispers. There are two ways to get Favor: Complete dungeons, kill monsters, and participate in headhunts. Achieve Season Journey Objectives.

The name of this set of armor is Grand High Witch Armor. This set of armor looks like an iron statue, and its theme is snake. When players wear this set of armor, they will look like an important member of the coven. At the same time, players who only have free passes can also get good rewards: Black Masquerade set includes five weapon transmogs A set of roleplaying armor with a dress ball theme A new title Special visual effects for the town portal Some Smoldering Ashes of Season Bless However, players with advanced passes can naturally get more. They have two additional sets of suits and can also get two mounts Wightscale and Nightwinder. The basic colors of these two horses are one black and one white, and their bodies are covered with snake scales, which is very cool. For some players who like mounts, these two mounts may be better than Grand High Witch Armor. The above is the general content of Diablo 4 Season 7 Battle Pass. As always, the developers have brought a lot of cool things to the players. Whether it is Witch Armors or the new mounts, they are very attractive. They fit the theme of this season very well. 90 pass rewards sound like a lot, but for players, the more pass rewards, the better!

Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred brings players a brand new adventure, not only deepening the game’s story background but also greatly enriching the game’s content by introducing the character of Neyrelle and her exploration journey in Nahantu jungle. In addition, the expansion also adds a very powerful profession - Spiritborn, which has attracted the attention of many players with its unique skills and combat style. Vessel of Hatred has also made a lot of optimizations and improvements to the basic game experience, making the whole game smoother and more attractive. However, besides the obvious changes mentioned above, Vessel of Hatred has quietly added three new monster families, bringing players an unprecedented challenge experience. The three newly added monsters are Hollows, Dregs, and Lacuni. Although Lacuni is not a completely unfamiliar existence, it has made a brief appearance in the previous game. Read this guide to learn more about each new monster family. Hollows The birth of Hollows is closely related to Neyrelle’s adventure. As Neyrelle travels deep into the mysterious jungles of Nahantu, she accidentally touches Mephisto’s soul stone and is burned by the powerful corruption it emanates. In an attempt to ease the pain, she dips her injured hand and soul stone into water in an attempt to cool them down. However, this action has an unexpected consequence, as Mephisto’s corruption quickly spreads across the entire Nahantu region. Over time, this black, tar-like corruption gradually coalesces and forms into Hollows. These creatures, made of corrupt matter, are numerous and extremely aggressive, and they begin to pose a great threat to the people and cities in the surrounding area. Players will first encounter this new family of monsters shortly after meeting Raheir. With such powerful and strange enemies, it may be a good idea to obtain more Diablo 4 Gold to equip your character faster. Dregs Another new family of monsters that attracts attention are Dregs. Unlike other creatures in the game, Dregs are not born monsters, but are actually once humans. These unfortunate souls were driven into a state of uncontrollable psychosis by tasting a hallucinogen found in Nahantu’s flora and fauna. Over time, these once normal humans gradually lost their minds and became one enemy that players face in the game today. They roam the deep jungles of Nahantu and have become a threat that cannot be ignored. Lacuni Lacuni are the only creatures that are familiar to veteran players of the series. However, this race has undergone significant changes throughout the development of Diablo series, and has undergone major adjustments and evolutions in both appearance and combat style, making their return a familiar and fresh experience for players. Lacuni are highly intelligent and aggressive feline bipedal creatures, commonly referred to as “Panther-men” or “Sabre Cats.” Lacuni social structure is similar to the group model of lions, showing the characteristics of a patriarchal society. In this system, male Lacuni are usually more robust and stronger, which makes them naturally take on the role of leaders in the tribe. In contrast, female Lacuni have shown excellent hunting skills and become an indispensable female hunter within the family. The origins of Lacuni can be traced back to Kehjistan, where they originally maintained a relatively harmonious relationship with humans. There was frequent exchange of goods between the two races, forming a mutually beneficial situation. However, the good times did not last long. As time went by, especially around Darkening of Tristram, because of some unknown reasons, the relationship between the two sides deteriorated sharply, and Lacuni began to show strong hostility towards the surrounding world. Since then, this once friendly race has gradually developed into one of the most well-known and threatening existences in Diablo series. In Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred, this classic monster family appears again. This time they appear in Teganze Plateau area of ​​the new Nahantu region. Here, Lacuni will not only use traditional melee weapons to attack but also use long-range means such as javelins and throwing grenades to fight against players who dare to enter their territory. It is worth noting that Lacuni first appeared in Diablo 2, and it is particularly appropriate that they return this time and become one of the main enemies of Nahantu - because Nahantu is also one map that was first introduced to the game world in Diablo 2. This design consistency not only enhances the consistency of the storyline of the entire series but also makes old players feel familiar, while also attracting new players to explore more about the story behind this world. By introducing these new monster families, Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred not only provides players with a richer and more diverse gaming experience but also deepens the game’s story background and worldview. Hollows, Dregs, and Lacuni each have unique background stories and combat styles. Their existence not only increases the complexity and challenge of the game but also brings new exploration fun to players.

Also Read: Long-Term Diablo 4 Promotions & Giveaways - Real And Valid A Dungeon Modifier Diablo 4 also launched Butcher’s ‘Meat or Treat’ event during Halloween event. The essence of this event lies in its influence mechanism on Dungeon Shrines. When players activate any Dungeon Shrines during the event, they may trigger this special effect. Once activated, Shrines will show different “surprise” effects from the usual, which may include additional loot, enhanced attributes or other unexpected gains. However, although these surprise effects are tempting, they may also be accompanied by certain risks and challenges, which will have unpredictable negative effects on the operation of the dungeon. Therefore, for players who are eager to explore and experience this event, how to wisely choose when and where to activate the dungeon shrine during the event from October 29 to November 5 has become an important strategic consideration. Although Diablo 4’s Halloween event may not include a lot of substantial game content updates, it is worth being able to receive a few new cosmetic items for free during the holiday. In addition, regarding Butcher’s game of “Meat or Treat,” Diablo 4 development team has maintained a mysterious silence and has not clearly informed players of the specific advantages and disadvantages they will face after activating a Dungeon Shrine. Players need to explore and experience the event content in person after the event starts in order to discover the secrets and surprises. This may mean that activating a Dungeon Shrine after the event is officially launched may bring some unexpected benefits.
