With Diablo 4 Season 4 arriving closer each day, players are eagerly awaiting any news from Blizzard. We’ll uncover what we know about the Diablo 4 Season 4 theme, release date, and early patch notes.
Diablo 4: Theme, release date, and early patch notes for Season 4
Season 4 of Diablo 4 is slated to arrive on May 14 at 10 AM PT, 1 PM ET for all players. While players got to play the Season 4 PTR, that only gave us glimpses into the overall game design changes and new features implemented. Things such as the revamped Helltide event, Tempering and Masterworking crafting system, as well as The Pit were introduced into the PTR and will later arrive for Season 4. But what else do we know?
Dataminers recently discovered a possible Iron Wolves theme for Season 4. These dataminers discovered an Iron Wolves emblem within these files, and fans of the previous Diablo games will probably recognize this name. The Iron Wolves were a mercenary company known to be working in Kehjistan.
The files also pointed out the name Soudeh who could play a vital role in the main Seasonal campaign. Other than that, these dataminers discovered a few Iron Wolf-themed items as reputation rewards.
Players who got to experience the PTR may have noticed that certain enemies granted “Wolf’s Honor” (as described in this detailed post on Wowhead), and even some of the Helltide events hint at the Iron Wolves. With all this in mind, it’s easy to speculate that the Season 4 campaign will take place in Kehjistan and involve you working with someone named Soudeh.
Whether you’re working with or against the Iron Wolves, we’re not sure yet. But it’s very obvious from these datamines that Blizzard plans to implement some sort of Iron Wolves theme into the next Season.
Until we find out more, you’ll be stuck with Season 3 for now, although most players are disappointed at the idea of returning to Season 3 after playing the Season 4 PTR.
