Bad News for Diablo 4 – Dev Says Nothing to Share Yet!

Jaym0 Avatar by Jaym0

With Diablo 4 Season 9 starting to go down in numbers of players right now, many were hoping for a little update soon of what is coming next! Especially after all the teasing from content creators.

However, Adam Fletcher, Diablo’s Director of Social & Content Marketing, recently confirmed there is “nothing to share yet” until the Season 10 PTR or even Season 10 launch. And that is only expected sometime in September 2025.

That statement might have ruined any hopes players had the last few weeks. But it has also raised new questions, especially with Gamescom 2025 right around the corner.

Could Gamescom Still Deliver Something?

Despite Fletcher’s post that makes it sound like there will really be nothing any time soon, everyone is wondering if Gamescom could still offer something, even a trailer or such. Anything Season 10 related will most likely not happen, but Blizzard could use the global stage to:

  • Announce the next Campfire Chat date
  • Drop a new teaser for some core system reworks that they apparently shared only with content creators
  • Reveal some new collaborations
  • Share a new roadmap
  • Reveal the next expansion

After all, Fletcher’s message does contradict the latest hype post he made just a few weeks prior, that hinted at bigger things. This feels like a complete shift in tone, and it is not making players happy at all.

Some players answered Adam’s post, saying: “Just like all those super exciting things you “can’t wait to share with us” while you constantly churn out the same seasonal content over and over...”

The statement of them having nothing to share until Season 10 makes a lot of players feel like they have been fooled, once again. But the hope remains at Gamescom being able to deliver.

The Road So Far And What Is Missing

Season 9 introduced Horadric Spellcraft and Escalating Nightmares, and those are good improvements to the current endgame. But there is still a big lack of meaningful changes or new content systems, and it makes the community feel underwhelmed. Let’s not even talk about the current class balance.

With the next expansion not arriving until 2026 most likely, and no new major content planned for 2025, there is growing concern that Diablo 4’s seasonal updates are not enough anymore to keep players entertained in the long run.

Blizzard had a roadmap teasing exciting plans like leaderboards, new systems, rankings, and more, but none of these have resurfaced in any recent update or dev talk.

Will Season 10 Be the Turning Point?

Some players are hoping that the silence might simply be Blizzard playing it safe. Maybe they are just holding back until Season 10 is ready. But the mixed messaging has everyone worried.

Maybe we get something at Gamescom. It would be Blizzard’s best chance to rebuild hype for Season 10, and reassure players that Diablo 4 still has surprises left to come.

We will make sure to update you if anything is shared any time soon!
