Diablo Immortal is getting its next big content update, Age of Falling Towers, starting tomorrow. Expect a new clan-based game mode, Accursed Towers, a brand new dungeon, an Elite Quest, new Legendary Gems, events, and increased activity rewards.
Age of Falling Towers is the game’s third major content update. Downtime will begin for five regions across Asia, Oceania, and Europe tomorrow, March 29th from 4-7PM PDT and on March 30th 1-2 AM PDT for the Americas.
Once the update is live, there are several major new features. Accursed Tower is prominent among them. You will have to be in a clan to participate,and the mode features both PVP and PVE elements. The objective is to claim towers and hold on to them throughout an eight-week season.
During the first week of the season, your clan leader picks a tower and your clan will attempt to claim it via a PvE match against minions. It isn’t a direct battle though, and there are a few things you have to do in order to be able to kill enemies and collect Cursed Shards. The clan most successful at this whole effort will claim that tower at the end. Then it will be time to defend it from both minions trying to get their tower back, but from other clans, in PvP. There’s a lot more on how to play and find your strategies, and the team promises tutorials and more info soon.
The update’s new dungeon, set aboard the ship Dread Reaver, is for those that have reached Hell V difficulty, and will continue the main quest of Diablo Immortal. According to the official description, you’ll have to “ fight drowned aberrations, sea monsters, and the ship’s commander, an exile from an ancient and forgotten land” and eventually, “track the elusive Cult of Terror, and try to reclaim a stolen Worldstone shard before they can deliver it to one of their leaders, the Bride of Hell”.
The Astral Bloom is the new Elite Quest, where you can help a mysterious mage, travel to a town in need of help, and more.
Also in the update are some boosts to activity rewards, some limited time events, including recruit a friend, and balance changes.
