What Preview Will Diablo 4 2.4.0 PTR Bring You For Season 10? - August 19-26

Aug 16, 2025 Author: D4gold

Perhaps because of the delay of the second DLC until 2026, Diablo 4's overall performance this year has been rather mediocre, seemingly lacking the appeal of other popular ARPGs. However, the reality is that no game can avoid this phase.

As the final season of 2025, Season 10 is expected to launch on September 23rd. The gameplay should remain largely the same as before: buffs from seasonal powers or items, new dungeons and events, and various minor optimizations.

While the gameplay isn't significantly different, there are still some subtle differences. Without a thorough understanding of these, it's difficult to fully enjoy Season 10. Therefore, it's worth checking out this guide to get your hands on 2.4.0 PTR.

What Preview Will Diablo 4 2.4.0 PTR Bring You For Season 10? - August 19-26

2.4.0 PTR Overview

PTR will launch on August 19, 2025, and will run until August 26th. Next week, in addition to previewing Season 10 content, you can also experience new changes coming to Vessel of Hatred.

2.4.0 PTR is expected to highlight Chaos Amor, Chaos Perks, and a revamped Infernal Hordes from Season 10. The game will continue to refine the content based on your feedback and that of other players participating in PTR, aiming for an even better Season 10 in September.

All Chaos-Centric Seasonal Content

As the name of Season 10, Infernal Chaos, suggests, the first feature of this season is the addition of several Chaos-centric seasonal content, including new Chaos Perks and Chaos Armor items.

Chaos Perks, like Horadric Powers and Boss Powers from the previous two seasons, will provide new ways to gain combat benefits and will be available in four tiers:

  • Magic
  • Rare
  • Legendary
  • Unique

You can expect to equip three non-unique perks and one unique perk per battle, and the maximum number of perks that can be obtained per class is 16.

As for Chaos Armor, it's an item that adds to your Chaos Perks and offers more combat possibilities. They're enhanced versions of existing Unique items. If you already own a Unique item, it can be used directly as Chaos Armor in Season 10.

Therefore, Chaos Armor should remain the same as before, dropping from certain bosses along with Diablo 4 gold. It's worth noting that the unique items added to each class in Season 10 are also Chaos Armor:

  • Barbarian: Sabre of Tsasgal
  • Druid: Kilt of Blackwing
  • Necromancer: Gospel of the Devotee
  • Rogue: Orphan Maker
  • Sorcerer: Galvanic Azurite
  • Spiritborn: Hesha e Kesungi

Revamped Infernal Hordes

As one of Diablo 4's most significant endgame events, Infernal Hordes has become not only popular but also a valuable resource farming location since its introduction in Season 5.

Season 10 is expected to feature updates to Infernal Hordes, which will refine the event's gameplay and provide more value by adjusting offerings and base monster counts.

For example, the game will grant you an Infernal Offering upon entering the event, instantly igniting embers to inject a burst of fire into your battles, allowing you to clear enemies more quickly.

Infernal Hordes will also feature Chaos Monsters and Chaos Waves based on Chaos mechanic. Killing Chaos Monsters grants you special buffs, while Chaos Waves increase the difficulty of subsequent waves, giving you the opportunity to farm more loot.

Changes To Fell Council

Previously in Infernal Hordes, Fell Council was the final enemy type you encountered. In PTR and the official Season 10, one council member will be designated as the council speaker and gain enhanced skills.

Adding to this, you can also play the newly added Fleeting Hordes in PTR. After completing its four waves of attacks, defeat two Fell Council members before consuming Aether to redeem rewards.

New Boss

In addition to the existing Fell Council, Season 10 will also add Bartuc, the Vizjerei Warlord, as the final boss of Infernal Hordes. If you enter Infernal Hordes as a group, every member must consume Aether to fight him.

Seasonal Event

Another new feature worth keeping an eye out for is the seasonal Chaos Rifts, which randomly spawn monsters and demons in Helltides and Nightmare Dungeons. Completing these events may reward gold, XP, gems, and Chaos Armor.

If you're lucky, you might encounter Mythic Chaos Rifts, and completing these events might even grant you Mythic Uniques.

Notes On Participating In PTR

2.4.0 PTR is expected to be available in the major regions of North America, Europe, Korea and Japan, South America, and Australia. And as with most previous PTRs, you can earn additional PTR boosts through vendor Mrak.

After creating a new PTR character, you can find Mrak near the main waypoint in Ked Bardu. He will provide segmented boosts for testing specific items. All available 2.4.0 PTR boost content includes:
