Season 8 of Diablo 4, "Belial's Return," brings a big change to the Battle Pass system. If you felt the previous passes were boring, expensive, and not really tied to the season's theme, you're not alone. The developers heard players' feedback loud and clear and introduced a new system called "Reliquaries" to make things more flexible and rewarding.
In earlier seasons, the Battle Pass was a straight 90-tier track, with 28 free rewards and the rest locked behind a premium paywall. Spending a lot of Diablo 4 Gold was the norm if you wanted the good stuff. But even then, many rewards felt disconnected from the classes and builds players loved. Now, Season 8 completely overhauls that.
What's New with the Battle Pass in Season 8?
The new Battle Pass system introduces Reliquaries. Instead of moving through a linear track, players can now choose which set of rewards they want to unlock first. Reliquaries are collections of cosmetics and bonuses that you unlock using Favor Tokens earned through gameplay like slaying monsters and completing quests.
There are four types of Reliquaries this season:
Belial's Return Reliquary (Free)
Weapons Reliquary (200 Platinum)
Beasts Reliquary (500 Platinum)
Armor Reliquary (800 Platinum)
Belial's Return Reliquary is available for all players without spending Platinum. It offers a mix of Town Portal cosmetics, weapon skins, mount cosmetics, and even free Platinum rewards. Unlocking everything in this Reliquary also grants you Gloves from the new "Guise of the Deceiver" armor set.
Premium Reliquaries and Deluxe Bundle
If you want more, you can spend Platinum (which you can buy with real money or in-game by trading Diablo 4 Gold for it, depending on the market) to unlock the three premium Reliquaries. Each contains themed cosmetics:
Weapons Reliquary: Weapon skins for all classes.
Bonus: Boots from Guise of the Deceiver.
Beasts Reliquary: Mounts, mount cosmetics, and a pet.
Bonus: Legs from Guise of the Deceiver.
Armor Reliquary: Armor sets for each class and a special Town Portal cosmetic.
Bonus: Chest and Helm from Guise of the Deceiver.
If you're planning to unlock multiple Reliquaries, the Deluxe Battle Pass Bundle is a great deal. For 2,800 Platinum, it gives you instant access to the full Guise of the Deceiver set, Deceiver's Final Form wings, an Owl pet, and unlocks access to all three premium Reliquaries.
How to Unlock Rewards
You unlock Reliquary rewards by collecting Favor Tokens. Every few monster kills or quest completions grant progress toward your next token. Each reward in a Reliquary costs around 2 to 10 Favor Tokens. You can hold up to 99 Favor Tokens, so make sure to spend them regularly to keep earning more.
When you unlock all rewards in a Reliquary, you'll also get a Bonus Reward — a piece of the Guise of the Deceiver armor set.
Other Important Changes
Smoldering Ashes are now part of the Season Journey, not the Battle Pass.
Battle Pass Tokens from previous seasons will automatically convert: Premium Tokens become Reliquary Premium Tokens, and Accelerated Tokens turn into 1,800 Platinum.
Unclaimed Rewards: Make sure to claim your rewards before the season ends, or you'll lose them forever.
Final Thoughts
With the new Reliquary system, Diablo 4 gives players way more control over what they earn. Whether you want to hunt for new armor sets, weapons, or mounts, you can now focus on what fits your playstyle best. Smart use of your Diablo 4 Gold and Favor Tokens will help you get the most out of Season 8.
Prepare to face Belial, build your best gear sets, and enjoy a Battle Pass system that finally feels meaningful. Good luck in Sanctuary!
