Forge Your Path Through Sanctuary
Season Of Reckoning Updates
When creating a character in Diablo IV, you choose where your battle begins: the Seasonal Realm or the Eternal Realm. Both offer the same core experience, including campaigns, class offerings, dungeons, and endgame challenges, but they diverge in meaningful ways that may shape how you play. With Lord of Hatred, you can begin fresh with a new Seasonal character or return to an existing character on the Eternal Realm to
continue your journey. Choosing Eternal does not require restarting the campaign, allowing you to pick up where you left off or begin the latest campaign right away.
Seasonal Realm
Eternal Realm
Best for players who want:
· A fresh start, offering a zero-to-hero experience
· Evolving gameplay experiences shaped through seasonal content
· Structured progression with earnable seasonal rewards
· To try a variety of new or unique builds, experiencing the game through different playstyles
· To play with friends on the Seasonal Realm
· Evolving gameplay experiences shaped through seasonal content
· Structured progression with earnable seasonal rewards
· To try a variety of new or unique builds, experiencing the game through different playstyles
· To play with friends on the Seasonal Realm
Best for players who want:
· Long-term progression with existing characters
· A persistent environment without seasonal resets
· Ongoing build refinement over time
· To play with friends on the Eternal Realm
· A persistent environment without seasonal resets
· Ongoing build refinement over time
· To play with friends on the Eternal Realm
What is it?
Limited-time themes and earnable rewards offer a refreshed
journey. Each new Season starts with a new character to craft
with the latest builds and newly discovered loot. When the season ends, your characters and progress carry over to the Eternal realm. Certain features, like The Tower and Leaderboards (Beta) only exist on the Seasonal Realm. Each Season guides you quickly into meaningful content. Seasonal themes and mechanics shape your journey, while Season Ranks track progress and unlock rewards as you take on greater challenges.
What is it?
The enduring world of Diablo IV where characters, builds, and loot persist without reset. Continue your journey, refine your builds over time, and play at your own pace. Experience regular core game updates, including balance changes that may impact builds, but without access to Seasonal content and rewards
Progression
Item and character progress resets on these characters each new Season, offering a zero-to-hero experience to face the latest challenges. Like the Eternal Realm, difficulty will progress at your pace, increasing with higher Torment Tiers or based on the endgame challenges you seek.
Progression
Item and character progression is enduring, allowing you to chase perfect rolls and invest in systems like Masterworking and Tempering with no resets over time. Difficulty progression adapts to your power, letting you progress at your own pace. Higher World Tiers and endgame activities allow you to increase challenge as desired. Jump back in at any time and continue where you left off.
Loot & Rewards
Seasonal Characters begin with an empty inventory, offering fresh loot and build opportunities. Core systems remain, while limited-time features add new twists. Along with Reliquaries, Seasonal Realm players can earn rewards through Season Ranks like cosmetics, currencies, and Seasonal Blessing bonuses that boost progression.
Loot & Rewards
Your gear, stash, Paragon, and gold are preserved over time to continue customizing. cosmetics, transmogs, and achievements are account-wide, and will appear on both Realms. Players on the Eternal realm also get access to the Reliquary, earning cosmetic rewards as Favor Tokens unlock through gameplay.
Getting Started
Choose to create a character on the Seasonal Realm. Each Season begins at level one and resets all progression, including Paragon and Gold. Mount, cosmetics, and transmogs carry over across realms. If you’ve completed the campaign once, you can choose to jump straight into endgame Seasonal content.
Getting Started
Choose your campaign state when creating a character: start from the base game, jump into an expansion, or go straight into endgame if you’ve completed the expansions already. For characters already on the Eternal Realm, jump back in to play with them any time.

A new suite of quality-of-life improvements makes every journey through Sanctuary smoother and more intuitive. The Loot Filter helps you focus on the gear that matters most, while the new Map Overlay and Pathfinding features make navigating the world clearer and more seamless.
