I’m still not clear on the price of the paid battle pass by itself, and the link on the Blizzard site doesn’t work. We think that January 13th is the earliest possible date, but the new season could also. Thus, Diablo III S28 is starting on a Friday as well. It is essential to note that every Diablo season always starts on Fridays. There are a few free cosmetics, but they are pretty basic compared to the wild paid armor (they showed like, a red shirt). Based on our projections, Diablo 3 S28 will most likely kick off on Friday, January 13, 2022. The rest are paid tiers, and they are purely cosmetic. These include some boosts to gameplay like extra gold or heart drop chance. There are 27 free tiers in the battle pass itself which you can move through if you spend nothing. It can only be progressed with seasonal characters both with monster kills but also seasonal challenges that ask you to do specific things and give you things like aspect rewards but also loads of battle pass progress. There are 32 Caged Heart powers in total.īattle Pass – A 100 Tier battle pass as you might expect. You can farm hearts from random enemies or later, “Malignant Tunnel” dungeons which will have some level of colored heart target farming.

A fourth “powerful” heart can go in any socket, and they are rare. There are three colors of Hearts that will go into three colors of “corrupted” sockets on your armor and give you wild new “stupidly broken builds” that will work throughout the season. Caged Hearts work like gems except if gems had strong legendary powers (a bit like Diablo Immortal, but they’re free). Caged Hearts – This is the seasonal mechanic.
