ECHO Gaming Staff January 16, 2025 Gaming Diablo 1 month ago

TL;DR: Diablo Immortal's newest update brings exciting changes, including a revamped battle pass with class-binding options, the 24-hour Winds of Fortune event, Phantom Market cosmetics inspired by the Year of the Snake, and rumors of a China-exclusive legendary gem event. Plus, the redeem code TRIALS2025 introduces trial items, though community feedback is mixed. Dive into all the details!

Revamped Battle Pass: A Quality of Life Upgrade

Diablo Immortal fans have plenty to celebrate with the latest battle pass update. The new system introduces a slick quality-of-life improvement that simplifies cosmetic weapon selection. Now, when selecting your first cosmetic weapon—or even the cosmetic itself—players are given more choices than ever:

Flexible Class Claiming: Cosmetics are now bindable to the class you choose. If you’re uncertain whether to stick with the Crusader all season or mix things up, you now have the option to "claim" cosmetics on any class.
Real-Time Preview Options: With the new view feature, players can toggle between male and female appearances, letting you see how your chosen cosmetic fits different classes.

This update is designed to maximize customization while ensuring your battle pass investments pay off, whether you’re spending $5 or going all-in with the enhanced option.

Winds of Fortune: Timing is Everything

The Winds of Fortune event has been a hot topic in Diablo Immortal recently, though some confusion arose regarding the event’s timing. Initially misinterpreted as playtime-based, it’s now clear that the bonus activations were tied to a strict 24-hour window.

Rewards such as battle pass progression and extra scrap materials were notable highlights. However, for savvy players, patience is key—waiting until the weekly reset maximizes rewards when the server’s Paragon level resets.

China Event Rumors: Will Legendary Gems Hit North America?

From the Diablo Immortal community in China comes a mysterious event hinting at exciting developments for legendary gems. Running from January 22nd to February 16th, this event may allow players to purchase level-five legendary gems using rewards earned from gameplay.

Key details include:

Booster Energy Mechanic: Players could use booster energy to rapidly accumulate resources for legendary gem upgrades.
Potential Paid Rewards: Early signs suggest this event might be a paid endeavor, with players earning rewards that convert into five-star legendary gems.

While unconfirmed for North America, this event could mark a significant shift in how Diablo Immortal handles in-game currency and rewards.

Phantom Market Cosmetics: A Sneak Peek at Limited-Time Exclusives

The Phantom Market introduces stunning, Year of the Snake-inspired cosmetics. These designs offer a sleek, serpentine aesthetic for all classes:

Stunning Designs: From the blood knight to the demon hunter, these cosmetics showcase intricate, Asian-inspired artistry.
High Price Point: Completing all rolls costs approximately $170, but rewards include unique cosmetic skins, additional portals, and more.

ECHO is excited to see how these designs enhance Diablo Immortal’s customization options.

TRIALS2025: Redeem Code & Community Reactions

Blizzard recently introduced the TRIALS2025 gift code, offering trial access to cosmetics and legendary gems. Here’s how to redeem it:
