When Does Diablo 4 Season 4 Start? Release Date & Details

The recent reveal of the 1.4.0 patch notes might have finally created the excitement and optimism that is needed for the future of Diablo 4. Fans of the series were disappointed in many of the core systems in the game, from a lack of endgame content to the shallow depth of the loot system. The Diablo 4 team is finally making huge sweeping changes to the game, with many of those issues being targeted for the launch of Season 4.

Even though the itemization rework, as well as many of the other features, are very exciting, they did come at a cost, with Season 4 being delayed for an entire month before its release. In this article, we are going to go over the actual release date of Season 4, as well as what kind of changes we can expect from Blizzard Entertainment.

When Does Diablo 4 Season 4 Start?

Diablo 4 Season 4 is set to launch on May 14th, 2024. The release date was pushed back an entire month due to the wide scope of the update, which will not only include the itemization rework, new endgame content, as well as the usual balance adjustments, but an entire seasonal mechanic on top of it as well. The date was also pushed back because of the new Public Test Realm that was added to the game, which will allow players to test the new systems and provide feedback to the developers, so they can continue iterating upon these changes.

While we don't have any current information about the seasonal theme for the next major update, the core system changes are going to be more than enough to provide players with a fresh ladder experience. Season of the Construct added the Seneschal Companion, the Malphas boss fight, as well as the Arcane Tremors and Vault Dungeons, so we can expect something similar in size to that update.

That is everything you need to know about the release date of Diablo 4 Season 4. Hopefully, it does not get pushed back even further, so players are able to experience all of the new changes that are coming to the game.
