According to the normal interval between Diablo 4 season updates, Season 8 was originally supposed to be launched in mid-April, but I believe you have also found out through various sources that this time has been postponed. On the one hand, this will cause you to have to wait a while before playing the new season, but on the other hand, you can better prepare for the new season. Here is the necessary information we provide for you.
Season 8 Release Date
Season 7, which has not yet ended, was launched on January 21, 2025. The original end time was April 15, but the official has postponed this time to April 29 a while ago. Usually there are no extra days between the old and new seasons of Diablo 4, so the release date of Season 8 should also be April 29.
Seasonal Power - Boss Power
Most Diablo 4 seasons have a seasonal power corresponding to the theme of the season. The theme of Season 8 is Belial’s Return, and the corresponding new mechanism is boss power! There are 24 of these powers, divided into three types: legendary, rare, and magic.
In Season 8, you can obtain their powers as long as you kill the corresponding boss. Each boss comes with a main power and a modifier power, but you can only equip one main power and three modifier powers in a single battle. Fortunately, you can adjust the equipped powers as needed before the battle begins.
New Boss Mechanism
The original Diablo 4 endgame mechanism will be renamed lair boss in Season 8, and will be further divided into three levels: initiate, greater, and exalted. In addition, you no longer need to collect relevant summoning materials in advance to challenge lair boss, but you must have lair keys to open the hoard of loot, including Diablo 4 Gold.
The above is some of the information we provide for Diablo 4 Season 8. If you find it useful, please continue to follow us, we will bring more news and strategies related to this season!
