It is officially clear that Diablo 4 needs to create new characters every season.
CTOnews.com, June 20 / PRNewswire-Asianet /-- Game General Manager Rod Ferguson (Rod Fergusson) tweeted that Diablo 4 requires players to create new characters every season.
Ferguson made this clear when answering netizens' questions, which CTOnews.com translated as follows:
Hello, Paul, you need to create a new season character to participate in the season's mission, mechanism, season journey and battle pass.
If you like, you can use the characters created by the season to play various battles, advance the season journey and battle passes.
This is basically the way Diablo worked in the previous season, and Blizzard's goal is to allow players to replay the game every season, rather than using existing full-level characters.
Blizzard says characters created in previous seasons will move to Eternal Realm.
