How to Start Season of Blood in Diablo IV
Season of Blood is the second season of Diablo IV started right after the Season of Malignant. If you haven’t played the Season of Malignant then you might wonder how you can start and play the new season. There are certain requirements for each season in Diablo IV and Season of Blood is no different. To start the Season of Blood in Diablo IV, you must follow through the following steps.

- Season of Blood can only be pursued in the Seasonal Realm. You will play the campaign in the Eternal Realm which is the main realm in Diablo IV and whenever a new season starts, Seasonal Realm activates in which you have to create a new character.
- To enter the Seasonal Realm, go to the home screen of the game and create a new character. It will open a new window requiring you to select a Realm for the Hero, you need to select the Seasonal Realm. After that, select a class of your choice and customize it. When you are on the last screen of creating the seasonal character, make sure to select the option to skip the campaign (only available if you have completed a campaign with any one of your characters).
- Once you have created the Seasonal Character, you will start in Ked Bardu, a town in the Dry Steppes region. From here, you need to interact with the board outside of Magistrate and talk to Oren inside the Magistrate to start the ‘Blood Money’ quest, the initial quest of Season of Blood.
