Diablo 4 Season 7 will focus on tracking down the reborn evil Mephisto. As one of the most iconic villains in Diablo series, Mephisto returns to the game world as Lord of Hatred, bringing players unprecedented challenges and adventures. However, before officially embarking on this exciting pursuit, make sure you have completed all the content in Vessel of Hatred expansion, because we will dive into its ending next.

It is worth noting that Diablo Season 6 and Vessel of Hatred expansion are actually two separate but closely related content released on the same day. Their stories both involve Mephisto’s return. By participating in these activities, players will learn that Mephisto is the demonic Lord of Hatred, Diablo’s brother, and the current main villain of Diablo 4.

At the end of the base game of Diablo 4, you are faced with a hard decision: what to do with Mephisto, the powerful Lord of Hatred. After a fierce battle and much deliberation, players decide that Mephisto is a greater threat to Sanctuary than Lilith, another major villain in the game.

To ensure that the demon does not threaten the world again, the heroes decide to use a magic stone to permanently lock Mephisto’s soul in Vessel of Hatred. Despite the heroes’ best efforts to prevent any possibility of this happening, Mephisto manages to escape.

Mephisto Possesses The Body Of Akarat

After Diablo 4 DLC, Mephisto’s threat has reached an all-time high. Not only has he escaped his bonds, but he has also possessed Akarat, a figure hailed as a savior in Diablo lore, making him more dangerous than ever. Akarat himself possesses powerful supernatural powers, and now these powers are being harnessed by Mephisto, making him nearly unstoppable.

Although Mephisto seems to have disappeared at the end of Vessel of Hatred, the essence of evil is immortal, and it is only a matter of time before he reappears and corrupts everything he touches.

This uncertainty casts a vast shadow on Sanctuary, as no one knows where Mephisto will appear next and how he will bring disaster. Therefore, it is crucial to buy Diablo 4 Gold to better prepare yourself, whether it is to upgrade equipment or obtain rare items.

Vessel of Hatred seems to be a magnificent tribute to Diablo 2. In Diablo 2, players witnessed the story of Diablo possessing a hero who defeated him in Diablo 1. Now, by letting Mephisto appear in human form, the series retells the classic Dark Wanderer angle in a new way.

Chasing Mephisto and witnessing his profound impact on different regions and characters undoubtedly constitute a suspenseful and exciting adventure. As he walks the world as Akarat and sows the seeds of hatred, this provides the development team with a great opportunity to carefully weave a series of gripping story chapters through the second major expansion in 2025.

Starting with Season 7, which kicks off immediately, players will first witness Akarat spreading blessings while hiding the secret curse of hatred spread by Mephisto. This season will serve as a fascinating starting point to gradually uncover the tip of the iceberg of Mephisto’s true intentions.

Road To Hatred

To achieve this goal, the development team must design seasonal content beyond the traditional framework of introducing new Helltide gimmicks or single dungeon modes. Instead, it should be deeply integrated into the storytelling, just like Season 5 did by introducing new and coherent quest lines.

In fact, looking back at Realmwalker event, it can be found that although it is very interesting in itself, if a large expansion like Vessel of Hatred does not accompany it, Season 6 will seem a little thin compared to previous seasons. Future seasonal updates should learn from and build on the revelation of Lilith’s followers’ actions after her defeat in Season 5 to build a more three-dimensional background story for the game.

The strategy adopted by the development team in Season 5 to release new quests in both seasonal and Eternal Realms was indeed a significant move, ensuring that all players can enjoy these fascinating contents, rather than just some new NPCs as background provides for the same quests.

For Season 7 and beyond, the player community expects to see more similar in-depth content, especially around Mephisto and his evil plan. Through the carefully designed quest chain, players can not only experience exciting battles in the process of tracking down this ultimate villain, but also deeply feel the progress of the story.

As for endgame content, past works in Diablo series such as Kurast Undercity, Realmwalkers, Infernal Hordes, Pit, and Dark Citadel have demonstrated its profound skills in building complex and changing game environments and enemy designs.

Players are full of expectations for how Season 7 will adjust and incorporate these classic elements, and hope to see that the developers can bring refreshing creativity and challenges while retaining the original essence.
