Face the Infernal Hordes

Each Season for Diablo 4 typically revolves around a s🧜easonal mechanic, with Season of the Infernal Hordes revolving around a new wave-based feature where players can take on hordes of enemies either solo or with friends. In between each wave, Infernal Offerings, which augment future waves with boons or banes, can be chosen to increase wave difficulty while also increasing potential rewards.

After each Infe🔯rnal Hordes run, players will take on 3 of the 5 members of the Fell Counc🌃il, each with their own unique abilities that can create interesting combinations based on other members of the Fell Council joining them in the fight.

Also part of the new Infernal Hordes seasonal mechanic are the all-new Hellbreach Dungeons. These new dungeons grant Burning Aether throughouℱt that can then be spent to open unique chests at the end of the dungeon.

Even though the Infernal Horde feature is th✨e﷽ main point of the new season, over 50 new Unique and Legendary Items are also being added the season, adding some new unique build variety and possibilities.

Diablo 4 Season 5, Season of the Infernal Hordes is set to launc✅h on all platforꦫms on August 6.
