Diablo 4 Season1 Was Delayed Before

This delay was an upsetting surprise that fans weren’t ready for. But history has repeated itself here. It happened before when Season 1 was set to launch. The initial launch date was in early December after the Diablo 4 had an impressive launch in November. Season 1 faced the same backlash from the fans due to this delay.

Massive changes were made in the gameplay, and even the unpopular changes were reverted in the new update. But still, many players weren’t ready to move on from it. Blizzard Entertainment diverted the focus with the news of the Season 2 release date and time. But delay at the launch of Season 1, spark the anger of the players.

Why was Season 2 Delayed?

With players all set and Blizzard in the last stage of the new season release, things got rough. There were no specific details mentioned by the Blizzard management right away. But we have insights from the Reddit players and ones with free premium battle passes. There were two major issues faced; one was the battle pass rack issues and cross-platform play between console and PC.

The delay news was posted with an extension of an extra 3 hours. As the Season 2 launch time was 10 AM PT, players were expecting the release by 1 PM PT. Since no release was made, the players became impatient. Just after the delay announcement was made via X post, numerous complaints flooded customer services. They have only responded with “do not have an ETA” and “it’s being looked into”.

Today, another news update was shared regarding the technical issues. The X post as stated is the same as stated by the premium users before.

Season 2 had high expectations as the new bosses, challenges, and blood-thirsty vampires. The main feature was the vampire powers and how players can unlock them to use them. Now it’s a waiting game to see what the future has in store down the path for Diablo 4‘s highly anticipated second season.

Diablo 4 Season 2 delayed news was a shock and upsetting news for the desperate players as they had to wait eagerly for the launch. Having a delayed post just before the right moment was no less than a heartbreak.
