Blizzard has unveiled all the details for Diablo 4 Season 7, the Season of Witchcraft, set to launch on January 21. Since its debut in 2023, Blizzard has consistently enriched Diablo 4 with regular updates, seasonal content, and a major expansion, with more exciting additions on the horizon for this beloved action-RPG.
The seasonal content in Diablo 4 keeps the game fresh and engaging for players between major expansions. While some seasons may be more thrilling than others, Season of Witchcraft promises to be one of the most significant updates since the game's launch. This is largely because Season 6 concludes "Chapter 1" of the game's content, and Season 7 ushers in "Chapter 2."
Diablo 4 Season of Witchcraft begins on Tuesday, January 21 at 10am PST. In this new season, players will join forces with the Witches of Hawezar to recover heads stolen from the Tree of Whispers. The Witches of Hawezar offer players a chance to enhance their abilities by delving into witchcraft powers. Additionally, players can discover and equip Occult Gems to unlock new abilities, some of which pay homage to Diablo 3. These new powers will be crucial in battles against the mutated Headrotten Bosses, which drop valuable rewards, including Occult Gems, upon defeat.
When is Diablo 4 Season 7?
- Diablo 4 Season 7 starts on Tuesday, January 21 at 10am PST.
Season 7 also brings several quality-of-life enhancements. A significant upgrade to the Diablo 4 armory allows players to save and switch between different loadouts effortlessly. Players can also anticipate new seasonal rewards, such as fresh Uniques and Legendaries, the opportunity to unlock the Raven pet by engaging in the Season Journey, and rewards from completing the new Battle Pass.
Owners of the Vessel of Hatred expansion will gain the most from the new season starting January 21, as they will have access to three new Runes during Season 7. Blizzard has always emphasized that certain seasonal content would be exclusive to expansion owners, and this trend may continue to grow in the future. For a fully immersive Diablo 4 Season 7 experience, players should ensure they have the Vessel of Hatred expansion.
Diablo 4 enthusiasts can look forward to more seasonal content throughout 2025, with another expansion slated for release in the fall. While the details of the upcoming expansion remain a mystery, players will have plenty to keep them occupied in the meantime.
