"Diablo 4 Fans Excited for Season 1 and 'Season of the Malignant' Release"

Blizzard's first season of Diablo IV, Season of the Malignant, begins on July 20, offering players the chance to battle powerful creatures for unique loot and experiment with limited-time gems. To participate, players must have completed the main campaign and start a new seasonal character on the Seasonal Realm. However, seasonal characters will have the opportunity to skip the campaign, access mounts and unlock previously discovered areas and progress. A poll asks players if they will be starting a seasonal character in Diablo IV: Season 1.
