Diablo 4 Season 1 warning

Diablo 4 Season 1 requirements (Image: BLIZZARD) Despite the launch of a poorly received update earlier this week,  Diablo  4 fans are looking forward to the release of Season 1 on PlayStation, Xbox and PC. Season of the Malignant has a July 20 release date and a 6pm BST UK launch time. However, while the new content is free to all players, be warned that you won’t actually be able to access the content unless you’ve already completed the main Diablo 4 campaign with at least one character. Likewise, you’ll need to have downloaded and installed the recent update in order to start playing. Blizzard explains more: “Once the Season starts, log onto the game, create a new Seasonal character, and enjoy! “If you have not completed the campaign yet, you will need to complete it on one character to gain access to seasonal content.” Provided you’ve completed the Campaign with at least one character, newly created Seasonal characters will have immediate access to their Mount, plus the option to skip the campaign.  All previously discovered Altars of Lilith will also be unlocked, as well as the corresponding Renown. The same is true for all previously discovered areas of the map. According to Blizzard, Season of the Malignant will launch with a free Battle Pass, which is automatically available to all Seasonal characters. There’s also a paid Premium Battle Pass with additional rewards, as well as an Accelerated Battle Pass with level skips. As part of the Digital Deluxe and Ultimate Edition bundles, customers will receive one Premium Battle Pass unlock. This can be used to unlock the Season of the Malignant Premium content. It’s worth noting, however, that you don’t actually have to use the Battle Pass unlock for the current season. If you haven’t completed the campaign – or perhaps you don’t like the look of the rewards – you can save the unlock for a future season.
