Take on Hell’s forces with Season of the Infernal Hordes coming 7 August at 3 a.m. AEST! Unlikely alliances, imminent threats, and the permanent wave-based Infernal Hordes are on the horizon this season to offer players a new kind of challenge.
Thanks to everyone that participated in our PC and Battle.net PTR (Public Test Realm) for Season of the Infernal Hordes! We have made several changes based on the feedback received, which can be found in our latest blog alongside additional details on the new Season.
SEASON OF THE INFERNAL HORDES
- The Infernal Hordes are a wave-based feature that can be taken on solo or with friends. Select Infernal Offerings (a boon or bane to augment a run) between waves to increase the enemy’s potency and the final rewards.
- Access the new Infernal Hordes feature on both Realms, where it will be interwoven through a Seasonal Questline on the Seasonal Realm, and accessible after a brief new Questline on the Eternal Realm at World Tier III.
- At the end of every Infernal Hordes run, players will face off against the Fell Council. There are 5 Fell Council members total and 3 different members will be selected at random to fight you. Be wary of their unique abilities in the various combinations you’ll encounter them.
- New Hellbreach Dungeons will be available in the Seasonal Realm to give players a first taste of what to expect in Infernal Hordes. These dungeons will reward players with Burning Aether that can be spent on chests at the end.
- Over 50 new Uniques and Legendaries are coming this Season and will persist beyond the Season’s end. Earn these items by slaying enemies across Sanctuary and in the Infernal Hordes.
- Earn Seasonal Progression by collecting caches that drop from slaying powerful servants of Hell. Once you’ve unlocked Seasonal Progression, the Infernal Hordes feature will be one of the best ways to increase your reputation and earn caches throughout the Season.
- Earn even more rewards by progressing through the Season Journey and completing the new Battle Pass which features 28 Free Tiers and 62 Premium Tiers.
On 2 August at 4 a.m. AEST we will have a Developer Update Livestream that dives further info Season of the Infernal Hordes. Check out this livestream on our Twitch and YouTube Channels.
