Blizzard has updated its new Diablo 4 patch notes ahead of the imminent Season 5 launch, and while there's a lot to be excited for there might be a little sad news for some players. In its August 1 developer update, Blizzard showcased a lot of bold upgrades coming in the next season, proving it's not resting on its laurels ahead of the Vessel of Hatred DLC.

As if the latest in the long-running series wasn't big enough as a campaign and ongoing seasonal content, there seem to be at least two upcoming expansions in the works. We can draw on our knowledge of Diablo 4, as well as our attendance at Blizzcon 2023 and Summer Games Fest 2024, to give you the latest news and expectations for the Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred release date. We already know we can expect at least one new Diablo 4 class to change the meta completely, but we're also hoping for new items for excitingly powerful Diablo 4 builds, and encounters with Prime Evils not seen in the base game.
