Diablo 4 Battle Pass Cosmetics Will Fit Any Class
Diablo 4 players can expect a wider range of customization options with the upcoming Battle Pass cosmetics. Unlike the current base game outfits, which allow players to create a variety of character concepts, the Battle Pass will offer class-agnostic cosmetics to accommodate every possible body type. These cosmetics will be obtainable by spending $10 on a premium Battle Pass reward track and advancing through the levels over a three-month period. This is a positive departure from Diablo Immortal‘s system, which forced players to choose outfits for one class only.
The Battle Pass will also award players premium currency, Platinum, which can be saved up to purchase premium armor over the course of a year. While microtransaction prices have been a point of contention for some players, Diablo 4‘s digital purchases have been breaking records, with the game enjoying commercial and critical success.
General Manager Rod Fergusson revealed that the cosmetics in Diablo 4‘s first season and beyond will be class-agnostic, a move that has been met with enthusiasm from the community. However, players are also hoping for easy-to-obtain cosmetics, such as dye palettes and player icons, to be included on the Battle Pass reward tracks. Fans are eagerly awaiting a true black color palette, which may be included in one of the game’s upcoming seasons.
With Season 1 set to launch in mid-July, players won’t have to wait long to get their hands on the first batch of Battle Pass outfits. The parallels between Overwatch 2‘s reward tracks and those of Diablo 4 are becoming increasingly apparent. Diablo 4‘s status as a live service game should allow the developers to refine it into the ultimate Diablo experience, especially with the foundation established at launch. Blizzard has already announced two expansions for Diablo 4, showing confidence in their latest title for years to come.
Diablo 4 is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
