For the hack and slash Diablo 3, patch 2.4 has been released. It is available for both PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4. Season 5 is not far away.
For most PC gamers, things really start on Friday afternoon. Then Season 5 starts.
For Diablo 3 fans on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, the high season in D3 has already begun again. The patch 2.4 brings numerous new features and gives reason to revisit Sanctuary and dive hopelessly into it for the next few days.
In Diablo 3, it’s off to the island
The most important new zone is the Gray Depth Island. However, one should not expect a sunny beach paradise, but rather a rugged, hostile isle, where nature has conspired against the traveler. The adventurer must ensure not only to stay alive but also to remain sane.
In addition to the Gray Depth Island as a fresh zone, two already existing zones have been expanded with new areas: Progression continues in Leoric’s estate and the ruins of Sescheron have been extended.
The most important “gameplay change” comes with the Set Portals for players. Those who wear 6 parts of certain sets can pick up a hint in Leoric’s library that indicates where to find access to a specific “set dungeon” designed for that particular set. Those who clear all set dungeons of enemies will be rewarded with wings.
These are just a few of the highlights that Diablo 3 wants to showcase in the umpteenth spring. We haven’t even mentioned the numerous new sets and legendary items! Moreover, there is a new bank tab, the action system from the consoles has made its way to the PC, and countless balance changes await. You can find the complete patch notes in German here.
