Diablo 4 Season 2 countdown, release date, and launch time

The next season of Diablo 4 is just around the corner. Read on for the Diablo 4 Season 2 countdown, release date, and launch time!

Here is the countdown for Diablo 4 Season 2. According to Blizzard, Season of Blood will arrive on Oct. 17 at 10 a.m. PDT. It will also feature Vampiric Powers, the Blood Harvest event, a new questline, additional endgame bosses, and more.

Vampiric Powers in the Diablo 4 Season of Blood requires players to use Potent Blood. According to Blizzard, Potent Blood is obtainable from fallen adversaries. Once a player has Potent Blood, they can spend it in the Vampiric Powers tab and unlock either a random power or power upgrade.

As for Vampiric Powers themselves, they can be unlocked through the seasonal questline and the Blood Harvest event. The seasonal Blood Harvest event rewards Pact Armor drops as well. In an announcement, Blizzard revealed that Pact Armor is needed to activate Vampiric Powers.

For example, the legendary Shattered Runic Gloves posted above grant one Ferocity, Divinity, and Eternity Pact. If a Vampiric Power needs one Ferocity Pact to activate, then these gloves cover the requirement. The player then has one Divinity Pact and one Eternity Pact left over.

This remaining Pact Armor can be used to activate another Vampiric Power that requires one Divinity Pact and one Eternity Pact.

Meanwhile, Season of Blood also has new endgame bosses with unique drops. The bosses include Grigoire, the Galvanic Saint, Echo of Varshan, the Beast in the Ice, Dark Master, and Echo of Duriel. To fight these bosses, players must meet their summoning conditions.

That's all for now. Stay tuned on esports.gg for more news and updates.
