Fan reactions have been mixed so far for the latest season of Diablo 4. The Sins of the Horadrim season introduced new Escalating Nightmare Dungeons and Horadric Spells. In theory, these were exciting new additions. In practice, they haven’t quite worked as intended. Season 9 has already had a few patches to address the biggest issues, including one earlier this month that had to be rolled back and re-released. Now, Version 2.3.2 will address even more bugs impacting Escalating Nightmares, Horadric Strongrooms, and more.
The next Diablo 4 update will go live for PC, Xbox, and PlayStation on July 29th. Blizzard has already dropped the patch notes to preview what’s coming. This time around, the patch focuses pretty heavily on the base game. There’s just a single patch note for the Vessel of Hatred DLC before jumping into base game update details. Clearly, Blizzard is focused on making Diablo 4‘s Sins of the Horadrim season shine.
This patch is full of bug fixes and optimizations rather than new content. There are several fixes for Sins of the Horadrim quests, including a soft lock for the Wisdom’s Chosen Seasonal Quest. The newly introduced permanent feature, Escalating Nightmare Dungeons, has also gotten a whole host of bug fixes. This includes more adjustments to ensure affixes are properly applied and making sure that reward chests actually spawn. In all, this latest update should improve the new Season 9 content in Diablo 4 by smoothing out lingering issues.
