The Diablo 4 Season 11 start time is later than expected as Blizzard takes a gamble against its strongest challenger
Blizzard has confirmed when Diablo 4 Season 11 will begin, and it's coming a couple of days later than we initially expected, and one of the most anticipated features in the update isn't arriving until early 2026. Don't worry, there's still a lot packed in to the next season, with core system updates for everything from monster behavior to crafting, and the return of the Lesser Evils. However, the unusual kick-off time has caused plenty of speculation about whether there are any secrets still to learn, along with some fresh frustrations about its proximity to the new update for rival ARPG Path of Exile 2.
