As Halloween approaches in 2025, players can look forward to Diablo 4’s new Season of Witchcraft, which brings witches into the game. Starting January 21, a whole new world of unique powers will be available for seasonal characters to wield.
The season introduces a mysterious tree known as the Tree of Whispers, which whispers unspeakable knowledge to those who approach it. However, this tree is losing heads due to dark forces and needs the help of seasonal players to recover them. As part of this mission, players will hunt down new creatures called Headrotten and learn witch powers in the process.
These powers range from passive bonuses like increased movement speed to more powerful abilities such as summoning a giant frog that explodes into poison. Rare Lost Powers can be found in dungeons, one of which allows for a tornado made of piranhas.
Blizzard has announced various quality-of-life improvements and class balance changes coming with the season, including the ability to save and swap between different character build loadouts. The recent Spiritborn expansion led to record-breaking damage numbers, but these changes may shift the balance of power in the game once again.
