Diablo 2: Resurrected Ladder Now Live

gamerant.com:

The originalDiablo 2 launched in 2000, nearly 22 years ago. The game remains played, and successful, to this day. That's in no small part due to continued support for Diablo 2's competitive ladder, of which there have been 28 full seasons (and a 29th ongoing). Suffice to say, it's a highly anticipated feature for Diablo 2: Resurrected, as well, one that's unfortunately been delayed so far. That changes today, however. Blizzard's now confirmed that Diablo 2: Resurrected's first ladder is now live.

For those unfamiliar with what Diablo 2: Resurrected's ladder system will deliver, it's a fun competitive game mode for those looking for a new way to play the game. Those who participate in the ladder will create entirely new characters based on Diablo 2: Resurrected's newest patch, 2.4. They'll then progress through the game, gaining levels and having the opportunity to earn loot exclusive to the ladder. All ladder participants will be compared to each other on a leaderboard based on experience earned. At the end of the season, ladder characters get shifted over to standard servers.

Diablo 2: Resurrected's ladder will offer four unique modes to play through. There will be both a Classic and Hardcore Classic ladder, which are played on the base four acts on Diablo 2: Resurrected. The remaining two are the Expansion Ladder and the Hardcore Expansion ladder, which include the fifth act from the Lord of Destruction expansion. Hardcore, for those unfamiliar, means that characters permanently die on death, for the ultimate challenge.
