“We have encountered some technical issues with our current build and will be delaying Season of Blood’s start time by a few hours to remedy these issues,” a Diablo IV representative wrote. “Once we have more information, we’ll update you right away. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate the feedback you have provided and your patience.”
