Diablo 4 update 1.5.1 release TIME, date and patch notes for new download (2024)

Diablo 4 fans are counting down to the release of update 1.5.1 on PS5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC. According to Blizzard, the next major Diablo 4 update has an August 20 release date and a 6pm BST UK launch time. The latest Diablo 4 update aims to improve the new Infernal Hordes mode, specifically by giving players more rewards to keep on playing. First up, the Spoils of Gold chest is now reuseable. That's on top of increased amounts of Burning Aether for The Exalted Elite, The Surging Elite, The Unstoppable Elite and The Burning Rain. Speaking of Burning Aether, the sound effect that plays when picking up the reward will now be more prominent.

Elsewhere, Diablo 4 developer Blizzard has made a host of improvements to the user-interface.

For example, Trade chat is now separated by World Tier, while Clan Names can now be changed.

Players will also be notified when there is a new patch update available, while newly created characters will be placed at the top of the character list.

Finally, you'll be pleased to hear that Blizzard is giving players a cache of Legendary items with guaranteed Greater Affixes to make up for a recent issue with update 1.5.0.

Then there are the usual boatload of bug fixes and minor gameplay tweaks, which you can read about by checking out the patch notes below.
