At the beginning of the year, Blizzard launchedDiablo 4Season 3, which has been undergoing constant changes through updates.

Another big change happened in February with patch 1.3.2, which introduced a new way forDiablo 4players to obtain Uber Uniques through farming. Earlier this month,Diablo 4fixed a bunch of issues with the Seneschal and made improvements to the game’s accessibility features with update 1.3.4.
