Blizzard's Rod Fergusson confirmed at a DICE panel that Diablo 4's second expansion won't be released until 2026, disrupting earlier expectations for annual expansions. The first major expansion, Vessel of Hatred, launched in October 2024, and it added significant content to the game, including new regions and classes. While additional updates will continue throughout 2025, players should anticipate only seasonal changes and possibly minor content like new classes, positioning Blizzard’s approach firmly on quality over quantity in its live-service strategy for Diablo 4.
Rod Fergusson revealed that Diablo 4's second expansion won't arrive until 2026, emphasizing Blizzard's commitment to high-quality, live-service game support.
Although fans expected annual expansions post-launch, it appears that the release of Diablo 4 expansions will follow a slower timetable by missing 2025.
With the launch of its first major expansion, Vessel of Hatred, in October 2024, Diablo 4 sets a precedent of having multiple expansions, a first for the franchise.
Planned seasonal updates in 2025 may include smaller content additions, such as new class features, but no significant expansions are scheduled for that year.
