Heard some info from a Streamer, who said the expansion will be released and 4 hors after, the s6 will start. Is this true? Can someone confirm?
Maybe we will know more on the 2nd.

Would be awesome, enough time to do the Xpac story.

I don’t think anyone knows right now. A 4 hour gap seems utterly pointless and I really doubt that is true. It also doesn’t make any sense to launch the expansion and season separately imo. That would mean people would have to create/play an eternal realm character, play through the expansion, then have to recreate their character and start from level 1 again a few hours later, to play the season. Makes zero sense, even more so considering many players will be wanting to playing spiritborn.
It’s worth noting, for people in NA, the current season end time was updated recently and it now says it ends on October 7th, so it’s possible S6 + expansion are launching at 7pm EST (midnight BST/GMT October 8th), just like the main game did last year.

That would be interesting. Also odd if Blizzard decided to release it at roughly 4 pm PDT on a Monday no less. Just a guess but I’m going to assume it may be for preparing for the launch the next day. Since it’s such a huge update coming. Hopefully they’ll talk about it next Wednesday.
I asked a question both here and on X - how the developers want the season and campaign to be played. Hopefully they are integrated to be played at the same time.

You should just need to do the xpac story before you can make a seasonal character. Ya I said it. If you don’t wanna do the story mode you are a nugget. You only need to do it once ever. Slay the Lord of Hatred Mephisto! Save Nyrelle!!!

I prefer to slay Nyrelle and save the Lord of Hatred.
I can compromise on Nyrelle becoming the vessel of hatred instead.

You’re supposed to assume she’s going to be saved so it’s horrific when she turns into giant spectre skeletal horned Mephisto body.

I agree. Be a hero! 
Its not like we are being forced to do the campaign with every single character. Even I would balk at that.
I will be happy if that is Nyrelle fate, actions have consequences.
Nyrelle good intentions paved the way for Hell, with good help from her own hubris.
I prefer if the expansion doesn’t end in Mephisto defeat, rather in him resurrecting and being set loose on Sanctuary. The player will have to hunt him down before he reunite with his brothers.

That’s a good plan! I want to bring up as many lvl 100’s as it will allow. Seems like they have slowed down the level up though.
Well the glyph level to 100 sure that is slow.
But the new max level is pretty fast although hits a flat spot at 50, well it did on the ptr. But that lacked Voh content to keep you amused.
I leveled everything the hard way no cheat gear or glyphs on the ptr. It actually wasn’t too bad at all and one of the more interesting level ups.
Paragon levels fast until the low 200s then it becomes a grind.
I would be up for co-op with fellow forum crazies 
might be slightly less chaotic that way.

I should be able to make a seasonal character and go into the expansion campaign if I want. Blizzard could gate the seasonal questline/content, so that it doesn’t appear until after the expansion campaign is completed, like they originally did with the base game and season 1 (maybe it still works that way if you don’t select skip campaign?) but forcing players to have to go through the expansion campaign with an eternal realm character, which then instantly becomes obsolete, is a terrible idea.
I think it is a good idea, they worked hard on the story, so everyone should do it at least once.

Thats what the strongholds are for. 1.5 Levels per stronghold * 18 gets you through Penitent to Torment 1
Still no official information about release times between S6 and VoH 
They will release at the same time, October 7 , at 4 p.m. PDT .
