Players will embark on their Season Journey to discover and upgrade demonic Soul Shards based on the seven Lords of Hell.

In Season 25, players can embrace evil by infusing themselves with the essences of The Lords of Hell. With the upcoming 25th Anniversary of the Diablo Franchise, we wanted players to delve into the darker side of the Nephalem's past. Power can be alluring, and the road to the Burning Hells is paved with good intentions. Cunning Nephalem who find and wield these Soul Stones must exercise caution. These Soul Shards hold immense power-power that once belonged to the Prime and Lesser Evils. Though the Black Soulstone has been destroyed, lingering fragments of The Lords of Hell once contained therein still persist in Sanctuary.

We are expecting this update to be released on December 7.

Read on to learn more about the season theme and balance changes coming in Patch 2.7.2. Season 25 will begin on December 10, at 5PM (PST/CST/KST) shortly after our next Diablo III update. Update on 12/3: Content in red represents changes recently made from PTR 2.7.2.
