The June 2023 hit, Diablo 4, is continuously improving with the addition of changes and fixes under update 1.0.2. Since its release, Blizzard has released a series of hotfixes under the same update to ensure its continued success as Blizzard’s top release lately. Diablo 4 started on the wrong foot with multiple negative reviews, leading to what would seem like the game’s failure. However, a week later, the sequel is still attracting a multitude of players eager to jump in and experience its dungeons. During the quests, some challenges have become problematic due to existing bugs, prompting the release of Diablo 4 hotfixes under update patch 1.0.2.
