Blizzard has unveiled all the details for Diablo 4 Season 7, the Season of Witchcraft, which is scheduled to begin on January 21. Since its launch in 2023, Blizzard has consistently supported Diablo 4 with regular updates, seasonal content, and a major expansion, with more expansions planned for this popular action-RPG.
The seasonal content in Diablo 4 keeps players engaged between major expansions. While some seasons may be more thrilling than others, Season of Witchcraft appears to be one of the most significant since the game's debut. This is because Season 6 concludes "Chapter 1" of the game's content, and Season 7 marks the beginning of "Chapter 2."
Diablo 4 Season of Witchcraft kicks off 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 the opportunity 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 chance to unlock the Raven pet by participating 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 the opportunity to acquire three new Runes during Season 7. Blizzard has always emphasized that some 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.
