New Diablo 4 patch makes it harder to accidently activate the Premium Battle Pass
The update also resolves an issue with movement on some controllers, among other fixes
Following player complaints, Blizzard has released a Diablo 4 patch which makes it harder for users to accidentally activate the game’s Premium Battle Pass.
Prior to the update, selecting the ‘Season’ tab from the in-game menu would by default place the cursor on the ‘Activate Premium’ button, which once clicked, would instantly activate the Battle Pass without a confirmation prompt.
This led to some players accidently activating the Battle Pass and being unable to reverse the process, and allegations of malicious design on Blizzard’s part.
According to Diablo 4’s 1.1.0c patch notes, which we’ve republished in full below, Blizzard has “updated the activation of the Premium Battle Pass with a confirmation pop-up.”
“The default focus (the button the controller will first highlight) on the Battle Pass screen is now the Season Journey button,” they add.
The patch, which is available for all platforms, also resolves an issue where movement on some controllers was not working correctly, among other fixes.
