What you need to know
- Since Diablo 4's launch, many fans have been asking Blizzard whether Diablo 4's seasons would require the creation of a new character or not.
- Diablo General Manager Rod Fergusson has confirmed on Twitter that players will need to make a new seasonal character if they want to access and progress through seasonal Battle Passes, content drops, and more.
- This is how seasons worked in previous Diablo games, with the idea being that players can replay the game with each season's new gameplay offerings instead of jumping in with a character that's already maxed out.
- Characters from the "preseason" or past seasons will be moved to the Eternal Realm, an instance of the game that doesn't have content from the latest season in it.
