With the recent release of the Season 3 reveal blog, there's a flurry of new information about what Sanctuary-goers can expect coming next season. One detail some might have overlooked is the end date for Season of the Construct: Season 3 ends on Friday, April 26, 2024. As many Diablo 4 players have noticed before now, Seasons have typically begun and ended on a Tuesday - except this time, April 26 is a Friday.
The community has been calling for weekend releases for Seasons for some time now, and this new date reveal shows that Blizzard has heard the community's call for a different release day. A few months ago, Adam Fletcher stated on X (formerly known as Twitter) that Blizzard intends to move Season launches to better timeframes "like Thursday or Fridays" to better accomodate players' schedules, and it seems like moving forward this will potentially be the new norm!
What are your thoughts on Friday releases moving forward? Do you prefer having the weekend to grind out the new season launch? Let us know below!

They used the same weird logic that made them think the "Rebirth" feature was not useful or being used in D3.

Indeed!
On a side note, expect wowhead in a few months creating a new post saying that they discovered the release date of Season 4, lol.

There are always bugs with the new seasons and its better for the devs to have patches/seasons release mid week so you dont have some game breaking bug over the weekend when noone is at work. Especialy now that D4 does not have PTR...
