Three years later, 'Diablo III' Seasons mode heads to consoles

For the uninitiated, Seasons lets you experience Diablo III just like a new player would with a level one character. You'll level up and upgrade your gear faster than with a higher level character, which can be fun for veteran players who have to grind a lot more to see gains. It can also be a great way to take a friend through the game for the first time, since you'll both get to play with a clean slate at the same difficulty level. You can either create a new character or "rebirth" a current one, reverting it to level one and classifying it as Seasonal. Seasons also includes leaderboards and mission-like tasks in the Season Journey, as well as more difficult Conquest challenges -- both only available to new characters created for this game mode.
