Diablo IV is celebrating its second anniversary with a special in-game event running from June 3-17. Players can look forward to exclusive cosmetic rewards, returning bonuses, and significant experience and gold boosts during the two-week celebration.
Anniversary Event Reliquary Offers Exclusive Rewards
The centerpiece of the anniversary celebration is a new Event Reliquary system where players can exchange gold for special cosmetic items. This limited-time feature includes six themed rewards that embrace a fiery "dawn" aesthetic:
- Sunflame Lantern Mount Trophy
- Burning Dawn Banner Mount Trophy
- Sunraiser Sword Cosmetic
- Sunflame Sword Two-Handed Sword Cosmetic
- Burning Barbs Polearm Cosmetic
- Burning Dawn Bow Cosmetic
Players who collect all six items before the event ends will receive the exclusive Burning Dawn Mount Armor as a special completion reward.
Mother's Blessing Returns With Enhanced Rewards
The popular Mother's Blessing feature makes its return for the anniversary event. When active, players will receive an additional Gift of the Tree cache each time they return Grim Favors to the Tree of Whispers. These special caches contain Collection of Chaos items, providing extra rewards for completing whispers.
What Bonuses Can Players Expect?
Beyond the cosmetic rewards and extra caches, Diablo IV is offering substantial progression boosts during the anniversary celebration:
- 35% increased experience gain (multiplicative, not additive)
- 50% increased gold acquisition (multiplicative)
- These bonuses apply across both Seasonal and Eternal Realms
- All World Tiers benefit from these enhancements
Timing Aligns With Season 8: Belial's Return
The anniversary event strategically coincides with Season 8: Belial's Return, giving players extra incentives to battle against the "colossal con artist" while enjoying the celebration bonuses. These progression boosts should significantly help players advance through the seasonal content while working toward the anniversary rewards.
The Diablo IV anniversary event begins June 3 and runs through June 17 at 10 a.m. PDT. Players looking to collect all the exclusive rewards should plan accordingly, as the Event Reliquary and its associated rewards will only be available during this limited window.
