Diablo 4 is closing out October in true Sanctuary style, as Blizzard has officially announced two in-game events launching on the same day — Mother’s Blessing and Seasonal Splendor. Both will begin on October 28, 2025, marking one of the most rewarding weeks of Diablo 4’s Season 10 so far.
Season 10, titled Season of Infernal Chaos, launched on September 23 and has been one of the most content-packed updates yet. The season introduced new gameplay layers like Chaos Armor, Rift challenges, and a deep Perks system — each adding fresh replay value and power spikes to the experience. Now, with both of these new limited-time events going live together, players have even more incentive to jump back into Sanctuary and grind.
Double the Rewards: Two Events Launching at Once
Blizzard has confirmed that the Mother’s Blessing and Seasonal Splendor events will both begin on October 28, overlapping perfectly to maximize rewards for players. It’s an unusually generous move from Blizzard, one that has immediately caught the attention of the community.
Here’s what players can expect from each event:
⚔️ Mother’s Blessing Returns With XP and Gold Boosts
The Mother’s Blessing event has become a fan favorite among the Diablo community, returning several times throughout 2024 and 2025 due to its incredible bonuses. For this October’s iteration, Blizzard is once again offering a 35% Experience boost and a 50% Gold gain increase across all game content.
These bonuses stack with other active buffs, including those from Elixirs, Shrine effects, and the Season 10 Perks system. This means players can chain boosts together to level up faster than ever — ideal for anyone still climbing to endgame or farming Paragon points.
Additionally, since the last Mother’s Blessing event in March, Blizzard has traditionally included bonus loot drops, such as the Gift of the Tree cache awarded when turning in Grim Favors. While not explicitly confirmed for this round, it’s likely that feature will return again, providing an extra layer of motivation to dive into the endgame grind.
Both Seasonal and Eternal Realm characters can take part in Mother’s Blessing, ensuring that every player, regardless of their preferred playstyle, benefits from the boost.
🔥 Seasonal Splendor Supercharges Infernal Warp Rewards
The second event, Seasonal Splendor, is exclusive to players participating in the Season of Infernal Chaos. This event is all about accelerating seasonal progression by dramatically increasing the rate at which Infernal Warp — the primary resource tied to the season’s activities — is earned.
While Blizzard hasn’t released exact percentages yet, previous versions of this event have doubled the drop rate for seasonal currencies. If that pattern holds true, players could see an explosion in Infernal Warp gains, making it significantly easier to unlock Chaos Armor, level up Perks, and dominate Rift activities.
The combination of both events means that players will enjoy faster character growth, boosted wealth accumulation, and smoother progression toward seasonal goals — effectively turning the final week of October into a perfect grind window for both casual and hardcore players alike.
How Long Will the Events Last?
Blizzard hasn’t specified how long the events will run, but based on historical data from past Mother’s Blessing and Seasonal Splendor events, fans can expect them to last approximately one week — likely from October 28 through November 3.
However, some events in the past have been extended by a few days depending on server activity and player feedback. If Blizzard sees high engagement, it wouldn’t be surprising to see the double-event celebration last longer.
A Strong Mid-Season Boost for Diablo 4 Players
Season 10 is roughly halfway through its cycle, with Season 11 already on the horizon for December 9, 2025. This means the dual event week is perfectly timed to re-energize the player base and provide a reason to log back in before the next major update.
The current season has focused heavily on replayability and build diversity. Infernal Rifts remain a central activity, offering randomized dungeons full of volatile modifiers and chaos-driven mechanics. Chaos Armor and Perks have introduced new strategic layers, encouraging players to experiment with different combinations and synergy effects.
With the addition of these limited-time bonuses, Blizzard is clearly aiming to keep the player community engaged and the servers active through November.
Looking Ahead: What Comes After Season 10
Beyond the October events, the Diablo 4 team has already begun teasing Season 11, currently available for early testing on the Public Test Realm (PTR).
Season 11 is set to feature the long-awaited arrival of Azmodan, completing the lineup of the Lesser Evils alongside Andariel, Duriel, and Belial. The new seasonal activity will see all four demons invading Sanctuary simultaneously, creating one of the most chaotic and lore-rich events the series has ever seen.
Players can also expect new story content, reputation systems, seasonal mechanics, and possibly a new endgame progression path. Early testers on PTR have praised the next season for blending narrative depth with gameplay variety — a formula Blizzard seems eager to refine.
All signs suggest that Season 11 could serve as a bridge between Diablo 4’s current live-service model and its next major expansion, which many believe will be officially announced at BlizzCon 2025.
Final Thoughts: Sanctuary’s October Frenzy
Between the massive XP and gold bonuses of Mother’s Blessing and the lucrative resource drops of Seasonal Splendor, October 28 is shaping up to be one of Diablo 4’s busiest and most rewarding days yet.
It’s rare for Blizzard to run two major boost events at the same time, making this the ideal opportunity for players to dive in, power-level their characters, and stockpile resources before the year’s endgame content rolls around.
Whether you’re a returning hero or a new wanderer, the week of October 28–November 3 will be the ultimate time to grind through Sanctuary — and enjoy all the chaos that Diablo 4 has to offer.
