Diablo 3 Season 20 "Forbidden Archives" Starts Today

The new season of Diablo 3 begins today, offering a new round of cosmetics and Class Sets to collect as you grind your way through the campaign and challenges. This is Season 20 of the action-RPG, dubbed the Season of the Forbidden Archives. Each season tends to last roughly three months.

In Season 20 you can equip three extra Legendary powers into Kanai's Cube, without category restrictions. So if you want to mix together a wild combination of Weapon, Armor, and Jewelry powers, you can feel free. You can also claim End of Journey rewards, some of which are repeated from Season 8. If you earn your Conqueror rank you can earn stash tabs by completing special objectives. Most of those are targeted at high-level play with your strongest characters.

Finally, completing Chapters 2-4 will earn you new Class Sets with each of your Class characters. You can see those new armor sets below. This follows just after the 2.6.8 patch, which added Class Sets for Barbarian, Witch Doctor, and Wizard.

• Barbarian – Immortal King's Call
• Crusader – Seeker of the Light
• Demon Hunter – Natalya’s Vengeance
• Monk – Uliana’s Stratagem
• Necromancer – Trag'Oul's Avatar
• Witch Doctor – Spirit of Arachyr
• Wizard – Vyr’s Amazing Arcana

Diablo 3 has been getting a steady stream of seasonal updates for years, and Blizzard has already announced Diablo 4. That game may not be coming anytime soon, but what we've seen of the new UI shows it's going its own direction, distinct from Diablo 3.
