Vampiric Powers and plenty of highly-requested quality-of-life features should make Season 2 worth paying attention to.

After a rocky first season, Diablo IV Season 2 is looking to incorporate many of the features fans have been asking about since before the game's launch, along the way introducing new mechanics for players to sink their teeth into. Since its reveal in August, Blizzard has been sharing more about Season of Blood and what fans can expect come Season 2's launch in October. Here's everything we know about what's coming next to Diablo IV.
Blizzard had previously said its goal was to release new Diablo IV seasons quarterly, and it looks to be sticking to that vision. Season 2 will start on October 17. That's also the same day the game's first season will end, meaning it doesn't look like there will be any break in between seasonal rollouts. Diablo IV's major Season 1 patch actually arrived a few days prior to Season of the Malignant's start date, letting players get their hands on class balance changes and quality-of-life improvements ahead of the arrival of new seasonal content. It's currently unclear if something similar will happen with Season 2, but Blizzard has pledged to release patch notes at least a week ahead of an update's release to give the community time to process all the changes.
