UPDATE: After about 2 hours, Season of Blood has officially started for Diablo 4. The servers appear to be getting slammed, but theoretically, you should now be able to login to play. Also, the Steam version is now available as well with a 25% discount.
Well, I didn’t have this one on my Season of Blood bingo card. Season 2 of Diablo 4 was supposed to launch, well, 10 minutes or so ago. Instead, Blizzard released a post on their forums announcing that some technical issues have popped up with the current build. According to the post, they anticipate the delay of Season 2 to be “by a few hours” while they remedy the issues.
Blizzard’s definition of a few hours have varied between like one hour and several days in the past. Hopefully, it’s on the shorter side today.
Wait, who do I blame now? Microsoft? Bobby Kotick still? Just kidding. Mostly.
Diablo 4 Season 2, Season of Blood, launches soon™ on all platforms.
