The Second Anniversary Event Of Diablo 4 Is Officially Released!
The developer proclaimed specific content of the limited-time commemorative event of Diablo 4’s second anniversary on June 4. The commemorative event starts on June 3 and ends at 10 am (PDT) on June 17.
The game introduced a large open world for the first time, realizing expectations that players can explore in online multiplayer games in June 2023.
Reliquary
Reliquary was originally launched in the release of Diablo IV Season 8. Players can get armor sets and weapon skins by defeating monsters in sanctuary.
In this anniversary event, the developers launched Reliquary, where players can use game gold to redeem these rewards:
- Sunflame Lantern Mount Trophy
- Burning, Sunraiser Sword Cosmetic
- Sunflame Sword Two-Handed Sword Cosmetic
- Burning Barbs Polearm Cosmetic
- Dawn Banner Mount Trophy
- Burning Dawn Bow Cosmetic
Of course, all items in this Reliquary can also be traded with other players. You can exchange items that are not suitable for your character for some Diablo 4 gold rewards.
Players who collect all items in Relic Box by the end of the event will be rewarded with The Burning Dawn Mount Armor.
Mother’s Blessing
With the release of the Anniversary Event Trailer, Mother’s Blessing will be back.
Players can get one additional Gift of the Tree cache when players return Grim Favors. The contents of the chest are still unknown, but what kind of surprise awaits us?
In addition to the reward chest, you will have a can be stacked high probability of earning 35% EXP and 50% Gold. This reward applies to Seasonal, Eternal Realms, and all World Tiers.
Synergy With Season 9 Endgame Surge
This second anniversary coincides with release of Season 9: Sins of the Harajim.
This brutal three-tier dungeon chain, with stacked combat tweaks, will put even seasoned veterans to test.
Defeating Exalted Astaroth requires optimized gear and resources, so efficient D4 Gold management for ancestral items is essential.
Player Sentiment
Since game was released, constant complaints about a lack of content and frequent store rotation have been hanging over this action role-playing game.
Last year’s celebration (June 6-20, 2024) provided some temporary fixes - adding Treasure Goblins and XP boosts - but failed to solve core problems.
According to the previous information revealed by the relevant person in charge on the social platform, players have the opportunity to get a new and free reliquary during this anniversary event. The free reliquary is like an olive branch to those disappointed players.
However, specific game mechanics after the official announcement disappointed most players. Players still need to spend gold coins to obtain reliquary, which cost is very high.
The return of Mother’s Blessing has brought some comfort to some players, but players are still looking forward to some different new gameplay. Therefore, anniversary event launched this time did not satisfy players.
The introduction of Reliquaries shows the developer’s responsiveness, but it’s not a panacea. True redemption will require sustained content drops beyond seasonal treadmills.
If developer uses this momentum to deliver substantial quarterly updates rather than just anniversary tokens, Diablo IV could reclaim its throne.
