Diablo III fans, were you perhaps a little giddy to hear at BlizzCon that Papa Blizzard wasn’t giving up on your game of choice? The studio is making good on its word to bring a meaty content update to the game by moving Patch 2.4 into testing yesterday.
There’s a lot of meat in this patch, including the exploration zone of Greyhollow Island, a couple of expanded zones, 24 class set dungeons, empowered rifts, and a revised buff bar. Another incoming feature is the console’s action combat option, which is now coming to the PC.
Finally, Blizzard is giving players a season rebirth option: “This allows you to instantly transform a non-seasonal hero to a fresh level 1 season hero, maintaining their name and hours played. All gear is removed and automatically mailed to you in the non-season, providing up to 30Â days to reclaim the items at a later time. Paragon level, completed achievements, and other accomplishments also remain behind with your non-seasonal heroes.”
