- Coming to you from somewhere in Sanctuary. This is episode 4 5 3 of Shattered Soul Stone, your Diablo Community podcast. This episode is called Loot Reborn. It is May 10, and this is Jen. We're gonna start off with some Microsoft related stuff, uh, some of which seems good, some of it not so much. So what I'm looking at here is from The Verge, and that was posted yesterday. Um, it's called Microsoft's new Xbox Mobile Gaming Store is launching in July.
The Xbox Mobile store will be available on the web first with Microsoft's first party games, which is kind of interesting. This one was written by Tom Warren. Microsoft has been talking about plans for an Xbox Mobile gaming store for a couple of years now, and the company now plans to launch it in July. Speaking at the Bloomberg Technology Summit earlier today, Xbox President Sarah Bond revealed the launch date and how Microsoft is going to avoid Apple's strict App store rules.
Quote, we're going to start by bringing our own first party portfolio to the Xbox Mobile store. So you're going to see games like Candy Crush show up in that experience. Games like Minecraft says Bond. We're going to start on the web, excuse me, and we're doing that because that really allows us to have it be an experience that's accessible across all devices, all countries, no matter what an independent of the policies of closed ecosystem stores.
Although Bond alluded to games and an actual store in her statement during her interview at the Bloomberg Tech Summit, a statement provided to the Verge paints a slightly different picture quote. This year we will debut our first mobile offering where mobile players can find deals on their favorite in-game items and discover new games starting on the web so players can access it anywhere.
Bond says quote, this web based store is the first step in our journey to building a trusted app store with its roots in gaming. End quote, the store will be focused on first party mobile games from Microsoft's various studios, which include huge hits like Call of Duty, mobile and Candy Crush. Saga Bond says the company will extend this to partners at some point in the future too, while games will naturally be part of the store.
It sounds like the key parts of the Xbox experience will also be available. Bond argues there isn't a gaming platform and store experience. That quote goes truly across devices where who you are, your library, your identity, your rewards, travel with you versus being locked to a single ecosystem. So Microsoft is trying to build that with its Xbox mobile store. There's a little bit more in there to read from, but um, that is a thing that's happening.
And if it's true, I mean it does sound like they certainly want to launch this in, I think it was July or something like that. Yeah, July. Yeah, July. So this might be good for people that don't wanna play on a mobile device, like I'm, you know, like an Xbox. I have an Xbox and um, I've been playing games on it, you know, so that's fine, but like, how does this work otherwise, you know what I mean? Like, if I have to do things, if it's only gonna be, well, we're gonna put it on the web.
First of all, I have an Apple computer, is it gonna function with Microsoft stuff? I don't know. That could be a problem for some people, so it's just something a little weird to think about. Also, uh, game Spot has announced pretty much a similar article titled Microsoft Set to Launch Mobile Game Store this July, written by Steven T. Wright on, uh, today May 10. Microsoft will open a mobile game store in July to compete with Google Play and Apple's App Store.
Xbox President Sarah Bond recently announced the move at the Bloomberg Technology Summit stating that the store will launch on the web rather than through an app. So that kind of confirms that it's gonna be on the web, which might lock out people who have max, you know, uh, in order to maximize accessibility across many devices.
Microsoft stated that it planned to launch a gaming storefront last year after the European Union's Digital Markets Act made it easier for tech companies to start their own direct to consumer stores issuing Apple's dominant quote, walled garden and quote approach Bond said that the store will initially feature games from Microsoft owned studios such as Candy Crush Saga, this storefront marks Microsoft's latest attempt at entering the lucrative mobile gaming space, a market segment
that Xbox is not usually associated with, uh, the platform holders, $69 million Activi, AC acquisition of Activision Blizzard. Yeah, get all those words in there. It's just a lot. Uh, helped set up this move as that publisher includes Candy Crush Developer King, one of the biggest players in the mobile space. This decision comes at a difficult time for Microsoft's gaming division.
Xbox was heavily criticized earlier in May for closing multiple studios, including Tango, GameWorks, and Arcane Austin as, which are well known for producing critically acclaimed games like, Hi-Fi Rush and Dishonored respectively Bond defended that decision at that same summit, saying that the company looked at the, at a whole variety of factors and quote, when making such decisions.
She also cited a lack of growth and the rising cost of making quote, beautiful triple a blockbuster games end quote as reasons for the closures. There's a gonna be a bit of, uh, things in here from Wow Head and some other places that I like to, uh, get news from for this sort of thing. And wow, head has posted Blizzard hiring several positions for unannounced PVE game. This is written by TROs 10 hours ago, and there's a little graphic here and it says, heroes choose your role.
Do you wanna be analytics and research? Do you wanna be art, animation and sound? Do you want to be corporate operations? So here's what it says, there's a little bit here that's blurbed in from Wow head, and then a little clip here about directly from what Blizzard is saying.
So here it is. Blizzard is hiring for an unannounced game, exclamation point, although lacking identifying details, not even clarifying whether it is a brand new or existing ip, there are notices for several high level positions, including creative director, narrative director, and principal animator. Of course, this doesn't mean the game is guaranteed to become a reality project.
Titan was famously canceled after more than seven years of development, though Overwatch was born from its ashes just two years later. More recently, the unannounced survival game was canceled, was uh, was canceled after a rumored six years of development, two of which were public. And the Overwatch two PVE mode was likely canceled after poor sales early last year.
Cancellations are an unfortunate reality of the business though, and Blizzard is no stranger to the creative process repeatedly emphasizing numerous active projects in development across all of their existing IP and beyond. We do have a thing here for Blizzard, and, uh, I could, I couldn't view the original, but it's right here in Wow Head, so I'm just gonna read it from here. At Blizzard, we craft a genre designing games and legendary worlds for all to share.
Through unparalleled creativity and storytelling, we create immersive universes and iconic characters that are beloved across platforms, borders, backgrounds, and generations only made possible by building a work environment that nurtures the artistry of game development and unleashes the aspirations of our people. We are in search of a creative director to help grow and advance the, the creative vision of our unannounced game.
The ideal candidate has a passion for design and is able to effectively communicate to the games objectives through high quality visual content. They continuously learn, understand the importance of process, pay attention to detail, and are eager to play a crucial role on our team. The creative director will oversee narrative and visual design, guiding story and world creation for the unannounced project.
Qualified candidates will have demonstrated experience in establishing and guiding creative leadership teams from initial concept to release. This role is anticipated to be a hybrid work position with some work onsite and some work from home. The home studio for this role is Irvine, California, which is where Blizzard is headquartered. So that's, and if you didn't know that, I mean, that's where it's at. I get that they're trying to make an unannounced p uh, PVE game.
Okay, so that would be player versus environment. It, it's not, you know, go in there and kill all of the other players. It's go around and see what you can find in whatever this world is going to be if they get it done. There was a game, I think they canceled it a while back.
I can't remember the name of it, but it was intended to be something that sounds like this to me, you know, um, where you're, you're out like gathering ore or plants or whatever it was, and that game never saw the light of day as far as I know, they did work on it, it was worked on a while back.
You may remember quite a while back it feels like, um, that there were a number of people who were working on that game and then all of a sudden, um, I, I don't know if it had to do with Microsoft or not, but all of a sudden that whole team just got axed, you know, so I'm thinking this is like their take two on this with Blizzard because they obviously wanted that game to go somewhere and I don't know, and it didn't happen.
So I'm hoping that this one will be what they wanted it to be and that they will find the right creative director to get in there and do stuff with it and help other people to do what they should be doing with whatever this game happens to be. I'm not gonna be paying a lot of attention to it until I know that it's like actually gonna be viable.
I would hate to see them do this like, you know, unannounced PVE game, which sure sounds like the name for whatever the other one was that they just axed and got rid of for whatever reason. Um, I'd like to see it thrive. It sounds like something I might wanna play, you know, but I don't know.
I mean, can it get its way all the way through iteration and all of that to actually show up, I don't know, on your computer or on a tablet or something and I don't know, I'm just, I'm like, y'all asked the last one. What are you gonna do this time? I mean, okay, so moving on to Diablo two, resurrected season seven is going to begin on May 23rd. There is, I'm looking at the Blizzard forums to see this and uh, Pez radar wrote this.
Hi all. We wanted to give a heads up on the start time for the new season for Diablo two resurrected Diablo two resurrected. Season seven will begin on May 23 for all players globally starting at 5:00 PM PDT as with all new ladder seasons, leaderboards will be cleared for the new season, and that's all that's in there. There apparently was a couple of posts beyond it and there's some other ones that are just topics that people are talking about.
The sort of, kind of, sort of related to this, if we've got Diablo two resurrected starting on May 23, what else do we have starting then? You know, well we have Diablo Immortal, which was, uh, posted introducing Diablo Immortals newest class, the Tempest, and there is like a really neat drawing and I think I saw some like videos on, uh, Twitter about this, that sort of thing. And there's actually an embedded video in there too, but I'll, I'll read you some of this.
So this is, um, the news class is The Tempest. Here's what it says. In a time of ever-growing danger for the world of sanctuary, mysterious wanderers have sailed from the frigid mist of the north to push back the darkness that surrounds us. These agile dual blade wielding warriors harness the fury of the storm and crash upon their enemies with wind and waves. Will you become one of them or will you fight alongside them?
The Diablo Immortal team is proud to in introduce that the game's eighth class, the Tempest, I kind of screwed that up, but you probably get it. Catch your first glimpse at the Tempest in our newest cinematic trailer here and be and become the storm on May 23. So Diablo, um, Diablo four is gonna be, is it Dia? No Diablo two Resurrected begins May 23, uh, the, um, Diablo Mortals new class May 23. Um, and then underneath the video here it says, keep your eye trained on the gathering.
Storm ahead for a deep dive on Tempest, including a look at their unrelenting abilities and a new short story from senior narrative designer Ryan Quinn. May the wind be at your back and the sea at your grasp, but the Diablo Im Mortal team. There is a video in here. I don't know how long it is. I know I saw it on social media somewhere, it seemed kind of interesting. There's also another one in here from May 6th of, uh, obviously this year. And, uh, this is another Diablo immortal thing.
So it says, take heed of the shadows in treacherous reflection. So here we go. Since our last content update, you have vanquished the Darkness in the legions of Horror Limited Time event, beheld new legendary gems and new legendary A fixes and met a new familiar. This content update introduces the season 26 Battle pass, a new limited time event, new tower war season, and a new event center cycle and more.
As with previous content updates, there will be server maintenance starting on May seven, from which we've already passed from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM uh, for, uh, different countries basically. Um, and it's gonna be, if you're in the Americas, it's gonna be 1:00 AM to 3:00 AM PDT for servers in the Americas. After the maintenance has concluded, all items mentioned below will be live specific dates for any content going live afterward are provided below.
So here we have a little video from this and it's talking about the battle past 26 cosmetics. I'm not gonna play it now because it, I'm, I put everything in the show notes. It's shattered soul stone.com. You could find it there and you know, there'll be links and all of that stuff. So the first thing here is Battle pass 26 treacherous reflection. A shadow is beholden to its caster for its very form and function. Who could fault it for rebelling?
The season 26 battle pass lays bare 40 ranks worth of rewards such as crests, hilts, legendary gems, and more. Starting with the season 26 battle pass, empowered battle pass cosmetics can now be claimed at level 15 instead of level 30. Purchasing the collector's empowered battle pass will immediately unlock the cosmetics. The season 26 Battle Pass, portends treachery starting May nine. So we've, uh, it's yesterday. We started there.
Apparently you could still get on and do it starting May nine, 3:00 AM server time and ends June 6th, 3:00 AM server time, beginning, begin slaying demons and climbing your way through the ranks today. Then we are talking about Tower War season two. I did not know there was a season two for this part of the game, but here we are. Here's a little blurb. The PVP mode Tower War is back with a second season. We've made optimizations to the matchmaking algorithm to help ensure balanced play.
Those looking to flaunt their marshal prowess can compete in this arena of carnage from May eight through June 3rd. Uh, you know, this year obviously, uh, server time, tower war takes place from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM two to 4:00 PM and eight to 10:00 PM server time each day if it's run. And you must be level 46 or higher to play. So plan accordingly.
Then we have new limited time event swirling winds, and there's definitely a picture here of if you've played Diablo before, I'm assuming some of you have, and you have like those little guys that come out of the water and they look kind, they like, kind of like they've been drowned and they're kind of, you know, whatever. This has like something akin to that with a bunch of player classes just trying to beat up all these monsters. So here's the tiny little blurb for this one.
Prepare yourselves for a whirlwind adventurers from May 16, 3:00 AM to May 27, 3:00 AM server time adventurers. Over level 30, we'll get a preview of the next update to arrive in sanctuary through the limited time event swirling wins. Rewards are available in game on the following days. Uh, day two is May 17, day four is May 19, day eight is May 23. Log in and complete the daily task to claim your rewards starting at 3:00 AM server time.
And then we have the new events cycle, uh, center cycle so we know what's coming up. That's what it's for. It's that little spot where you log into the game and you haven't in a while, which is a problem that I have all the time. Um, and you gotta wait for each little event thing to pop up and actually get into your game. That's what I'm looking at here on this. So here's um, some information on that claim.
Increased rewards for your various exploits in sanctuary during the second cycle of the events center from May 17 to June 18. By finishing tasks and conquering the lesions of the burning hells, you'll earn seals of triumph, which will reward you in kind for the sheer number of deeds you can attribute to your name. To see the full list of eligible items that rewards seals of triumph.
See the bottom left hand side of the events tab that's not actually in here participate as you would normally to earn these rewards. The more events you complete, the more spoils shall be yours, eh, it kind of rhymes. One star, legendary gems. Normal gems to lyric pearls, legendary gems, a unique avatar frame, and aspirants keys. You can still claim rewards from the last cycle until the end of that cycle on May 21. And then we have returning events. There's a lot going on in Diablo, mortal .
So this one is called Trials of the Warrior. It's got, uh, like a crusader holding a big sword and a bunch of demons trying to grab him. A true warrior isn't measured by their title, but by their fess. Add to your accolades from May eight, 3:00 AM to May 16, 2 50 9:00 AM server time by completing daily and challenge cla tasks. From the trials of the Warrior event, you can either complete bounties or slay elite monsters to earn treasures benefiting their valor.
Depending on the tier you reach by the event's conclusion, you'll receive a corresponding reward via in-game mail, you'll only receive the reward for the tire, the highest tiers achieved. So bronze tier is one bounty or five elite monsters and one random legendary item. Silver tier is 10 bounties or 50 elite monsters. Two random legendary items. Gold tier is 30 bounties or 100 elite monsters. Two random legendary items and one random set item. Platinum tier is 40 bounties or 150 elite monsters.
Three random legendary item and one random set item. And then the diamond tier is 50 bounties or 200 elite monsters. Three random legendary uh, items and two random set items. You must log in the week following the event to receive their rewards. Um, so you gotta do that. There's the Wild brawl, which I've seen before. It's got some characters standing here with in a forest looking area, all armored up as much as they wanna be and all these little eyes looking back at them.
So this one says, enlist your most trusted companions and outlast enemy teams and the Wild Brawl event In this unique limited time PVP event from May 10, that's today 3:00 AM and May 17, 2 50 9:00 AM Server time players will start at Level one, work together in teams of six to explore an expansive map and endure to become the last surviving team equipped, discovered gear gain experience to strengthen your power and slay everything in sight to win the battle.
This arena style game mode ends when one team has outlasted the others to make their eternal mark un sanctuary. For more information, there's a link to an article about that. Then there's Survivor's Bain, which I think has popped up before in Survivor's Bain. You will begin each run without your character's items and a random skill from their class. From May 17 through May 23, 3:00 AM server time.
You can vanquish demons across three levels in succession, Shaar Sea, if I'm saying that right, ALDs Cemetery and frozen tundra to earn rewards and achievements. As you move throughout the map, any skills you have equipped will be automatically cast for you. Smiting Hell's Min, min Minions, sorry Smiting Hell's Minions will grant you useful experience orbs that level up your character.
Each time you level up, you'll be presented with the option to equip a new skill up to six total can be equipped. The skill you are presented with can be from any class, regardless of your character's class, or to upgrade an equip skill for more information. There's another link to an article from that.
There's also ally of blood quarreling forces threatened to desecrate hallowed grounds marking a point in the conflict between the forces of shadows and immortals demolish opposing century towers and dismantle the enemy team's base by shattering their crystal heart.
Imbue your adventurer with specialist skills for a tactical advantage and guard and bolster your champion's marks to claim the day from May 17, 3:00 AM to May 24, 3:00 AM server time fight alongside sacred guardians in the alley of blood. Then there's a link to an article with more about that. Here are the rules of engagement. All characters will be set to level 60. The rank of all legendary gear and set gear will be set to one.
The rank for all legendary gems on your character will be set to 10 bonuses from the following are disabled as well, residents, clans and war bands, normal gems and charms, heli query, bonuses, stances, and paragon specialization. Then there's the Shady Sock event, which is exactly what you think it is. It's a character here named Yakin. Y-A-K-I-N has once again come into possession of some liberated merchandise, likely flu from a far away excavation.
His shady stock is in high demand and will be available to peruse from May 11 to May 18, 3:00 AM server time or until West March's guards rate his supply. And then there's a link to that article. All clans on deck is the armies of the burning hills are mustering their forces to most assuredly for nefarious intents, you must rally your banner adventurer.
Call upon your clan for aid to beat back the tide of darkness from May 18 to May 25, uh, 2:59 AM Server time sanctuary will need all clans on deck for more information, there's a link to an article. There's also some feature updates with classes and battlegrounds.
I'm not gonna go over all of these because there's a lot in here, but you'll see it if you, um, if you go to the Shattered Soul Stone website or if you just pick this up through Blizzard, you'll see it and you'll see how it goes and all of this sort of thing. There's, um, rotating achievements and all of this kind of stuff. So it's a lot. I might try some of it. There's no way I'm gonna be able to do all of it at once, but I'll, I'll give it a try.
We also have, um, on uh, Diablo four.blizzard.com, the new season coming up on May 14th, which is called Loot Reborn. I'm not sure like, I understand that this is probably indicating that they're fixing the way loot has gone in the past and making it better for the player. There's a countdown clock on here. Um, you could get an upgraded battle pass. There's all this stuff. So here's some little blips about this thing. There's videos in here and screenshots and all this kind of stuff.
So here's part of it. A new era is upon us. Become the hero of your choosing with a newly improved itemization system. The power is in your hands to craft the weapons of your dreams. Temper your gear with a new crafting system to face down hordes of enemies in the updated held hides.

I'm probably saying that wrong one way or the other. I'm not sure I've heard it pronounced two different ways. The stars align on rare item drops to grant you greater FXs greatly improving the power of your items. Fight back the forces of hell. There's a picture of a bunch of demons running around amuck.
The armies of hell are expanding their reach across the world of sanctuary. New threat systems enemies, blood maiden boss and events. Join the Iron Wolves this season or in this season, activities and fight to beat back the tides of hell earning you reputation and rewards. Hell Tide is now available for all world tears.

And then seasonal title. There's a new one, devilish and Worm Fiend title provided you might, uh, proving your might this season. So you could get devilish worm fiend if you, if you wanted it.

And then at the bottom there is, um, a whole list here of what you can do with the basic battle pass. The free one, the premium one, and then the accelerated one, which gives you pretty much everything you could possibly want.
Frequently asked questions are at the bottom, so if you don't know anything about that, you could look there and find out. The first one says, how do I access the season content? Do I need a battle pass to play? So I'll just read you the answer to that one and leave the rest alone. Once the season starts, lock into the game, create a new seasonal character and enjoy. If you have not completed the prologue yet, you will need to complete it on one character to gain access to seasonal content.
The free battle pass is automatically available to all seasonal characters, get the premium or accelerated battle pass to earn additional rewards. And back over on Wow Head. They have an article by arcane titled New Changes Coming to Ladder Bosses in Diablo for Season four. And there's some notes in here to look at.
There's some little pieces from probably Blizzard, so I'll just read you a little bit of this Blizzard's recent developer update Live stream filled players in on some of the changes that have been implemented as a result of player feedback following the PTR.
Included in these adjustments are changes coming to the end game ladder bosses, exclamation point Blizzard has taken note of various pain points such as summoning material acquisition and requirements, as well as the rewards for both the tormented version of all the bosses and the non Uber bosses such as Beast in the Ice or Lord Zero tormented Bosses have had their summoning material cost reduced from five times to three times the normal amount required.
In addition, the rewards for slaying a tormented boss are now five times the normal amount. Boss summoning materials will drop from numerous activities and enemies in the game, such as elite monsters, whisper Cs, treasure goblins, and the new hell born enemy during the hell tides. Okay about those treasure goblins I did really well in Diablo three, finding the treasure goblins and knocking them over and getting all their loot.
D four is not being as kind to me as Diablo three was, but I I think I've killed a couple of treasure goblins as I, you know, as they got in my way basically. So going back to the Wow head article and all non Uber bosses such as Gregory Han or Beast in the Ice, will now have an added chance to drop an Uber unique such an item such as the grandfather. Several tormented bosses have undergone balance changes to bring better parity between them and other tormented bosses.
With these changes, players will be able to sum an end game. Bosses with much more frequency through more varied gameplay be potentially well rewarded with a surprise. Uber unique on their journey to the tormented bosses and faceoff against even tougher and more winning pinnacle bosses than before. We also have from Pur Diablo. This one is titled Diablo four Sets. Andro Words Not Ruled Out says Joe Pre Ofpi and it's written by Rush, uh, yesterday.
And we've got a picture of Lilith with some like runes in front of her. Very close to the viewer's uh, site here. It's a question that repeatedly arises. Will Diablo four rune words and sets ever be added sets are something that we feel could be coming sooner rather than later. Perhaps even the vessel of hatred expansion because there are assets in the game files to that point to it happening. On the other hand, ruins were touted prior, prior to launch, but never appeared.
Joe Prera, if I'm saying that right, has been on the interview rounds this week speaking to Riker and sounds like both sets and Ro words could be coming down the pipe, which I know would please many fans says the writer Rush. If you have been following Pure Diablo long enough, we started documenting the Diablo four run words that were first shown before launch, and they showed many similarities to the Diablo two ruins on Diablo four run words. Talking about Diablo four run words.
Joe stated this prior to the launch of Diablo four. We did work on run words for quite some time. We had some really cool stuff. We didn't feel we had the time to iterate it properly and polish it. It wasn't going to be ready and it wasn't going to fit quite right With that in mind, we didn't end up launching with that feature. We didn't want to have a half-baked version of what we wanted to do with it. As we think about the future, it's not like ruin words have lost their luster.
I think it's pretty clear that Diablo four feels like ruin words would fit. There's room for this in the future, I think. So there's some of that. And the last thing here is from Icy Veins, uh, written by staff, uh, called Powerful, new, unique, Uber unique and legendary items coming in season four. So there's a big picture here of all of these items. There's staffs, there's crossbows, there's knives, there's all kinds of things in here. So here's a little blurb.
It's time to take a look at the new Tools of Destruction Players will be getting in Season four only a few days away. The May 14th launch of the biggest Diablo four season yet brings an incredible amount of new features and massive changes to the game, but it also brings us some new toys to play with. Starting with a brand new and very powerful Uber unique interiors. Might, it won't be as hard to get as you think with three new sources of the resplendent Spark material from Season four.
One from the Iron Wolves reputation, one from your first Tormented Boss Kill, and one for Uber Lilith. You'll only need to find one Uber unique of any kind to be able to craft any other you want. Then there's the 11 new uniques two per class, one non-class specific and eight new legendary aspects giving us plenty of new builds to play with. Let's take a look at them all. So here's a source directly from Blizzard that they've embedded into this article.
So unique items, materials mite unique chest armor. While at full life your skills unleash a divine barrage dealing damage, Yen's blessing, unique boots, casting a skill that has a 40 to 60% chance to cast a non mobility non ultimate skill that is currently on Cool Down. This effect can only occur once every eight seconds. Legendary aspects aspect of frosty strides while below 45 to 60% of life evade freezes close enemies for cold damage and applies vulnerable to them for three seconds.
Aspect of concussive strikes. Lucky hit damaging an enemy has up to a 20% chance to daze them for two seconds. You DL five to 20% to increase damage to Dazed enemies. And then we're going into all of the classes, so you'd have to like look at this if you want to know which one it is. I'm sure everybody's got their favorites. I've played a few different ones and, um, it was kind of fun for a while.
And then, um, I kind of got a little bored , so I'll probably jump into the new season and see how that goes. I like that they're just flat out calling it loot reborn, like that's what everybody wants to see in a Diablo game. All this cool loot that you can get, um, and not have like duplicates and like, things that don't really fit your class or whatever. I think that's kind of cool for them to do, to do that. And yeah, that's, that's where we're gonna end this show.
