Diablo IV Season 4: Loot Reborn launched on May 14, 2024, at 10 a.m. PDT (17:00 UTC). It is a past launch, not an upcoming release. In Korea and eastern Australia, the local start date was May 15.
When did Diablo 4 Season 4 start?
Blizzard announced that Season 4: Loot Reborn would begin May 14, 2024, at 10 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time. That is 17:00 UTC. Blizzard’s Season 4 announcement also said the Battle Pass began at the same time. A later Blizzard Steam announcement confirmed Season 4 was live on May 14.
