Blizzard has released details on the first post-launch update(opens in new tab) for Diablo Immortal(opens in new tab), the free-to-play dungeon romp that launched into open beta on PC on June 2.

The pass will be available until August 4, and assuming pricing doesn't change from season one, the Empowered pass will cost $5 while the Collector's Empowered will go for $15.
