Diablo 4 Limited Time Anniversary Event Adds New Bonuses and Rewards

Diablo 4‘s second anniversary event is now live, giving players an opportunity to claim new rewards while also taking advantage of a special Mother’s Blessing boon. Since launching in 2023, Diablo 4 has seen plenty of changes and evolutions over the past two years, from a dedicated expansion to seasonal content and other major updates.

Of course, it hasn’t always been a smooth ride as players have had plenty to gripe about over the years, though Diablo 4 continued to release updates, some of which made sweeping changes to the experience for the better. In fact, Diablo 4‘s Loot Reborn season overhauled the game’s itemization, including Tempering, Masterowrking, and more. The update was widely praised by players and was eventually followed by other sweeping changes for the better. Now is a great time for players to jump back into Diablo 4 as the game is celebrating a new milestone.
