Diablo IV Season of the Infernal Hordes Begins on August 6

Today, Blizzard unveiled Diablo IV Season of the Infernal Hordes, the fifth live-service season for the action RPG, slated to launch on August 6. Here's an overview of what players can expect with Season of the Infernal Hordes:

Infernal Hordes is a wave-based feature that can be played solo or with friends. Between waves, players can select Infernal Offerings (a boon or curse to enhance a run) to increase the potency of the enemy and the final rewards.
The new Infernal Hordes feature can be accessed on both realms, where it will be interwoven through a seasonal quest line on the Seasonal Realm and accessible after a short new quest line on the Eternal Realm in World Tier III.
At the end of each Infernal Hordes run, players will face the Fell Council. There are 5 Fell Council members in total, and 3 different members will be randomly selected to fight you. Be aware of their unique abilities in the various combinations you'll encounter.
New Hellbreach dungeons will be available in the seasonal realm to give players a taste of what to expect in Infernal Hordes. These dungeons will reward players with Burning Aether, which can be spent on chests at the end of the dungeon.
Over 50 new Uniques and Legendaries are coming with the season and will remain available in Diablo IV even after the season ends. Earn these items by killing enemies throughout Sanctuary and in the Infernal Hordes.
Earn Seasonal Progression by collecting caches dropped by slaying powerful servants of Hell. Once you've unlocked Seasonal Progression, the Infernal Hordes feature is one of the best ways to increase your reputation and earn caches throughout the season.
Earn even more rewards by progressing through the Season Journey and completing the new Battle Pass, which includes 28 Free Tiers and 62 Premium Tiers.
