Diablo 3's annual "Fall of Tristram" event, slated to conclude on February 1st, has sparked player requests for an extension. However, community manager pezradar confirmed this isn't currently feasible, stating the event's hard-coded nature prevents server-side adjustments.
This announcement follows another setback: the delay of Diablo Immortal's Season 34, disrupting player weekend plans. Pezradar apologized, explaining the short notice (24 hours) was due to unforeseen issues with the automatic season scheduler that prematurely ended Season 33 in early January. The delay allows for the development and testing of new code to ensure smooth seasonal transitions and account progress transfers. Improved player communication is also acknowledged as a goal for future updates.
Separately, Wolcen Studio revealed Project Pantheon, a free-to-play combat RPG incorporating extraction shooter elements. A closed alpha test begins January 25th in Europe, expanding to North America on February 1st. Game director Andrei Cirkulete described the blend of extraction shooter tension and RPG combat dynamics, hinting at influences from Diablo and Escape from Tarkov. The game casts players as Death's messengers, tasked with restoring order to a ravaged world. The developers eagerly anticipate player feedback.
