Since the start of Season 5, Diablo 4 players have encountered progression-blocking bugs in the game’s brand-new Infernal Hordes activity.
Infernal Hordesis the latest mode to join D4, offering players a chance to earn big rewards after completing a series of wave-based combat challenges.
While much of the community agrees the mode counts asone of Diablo 4’s best additions, it didn’t launch without a few flaws.
Most notably, players have stumbled across glitches that prevent them from progressing through the activity. As reported in aBlizzard Forumspost, one bug won’t spawn loot or allow users to leave the boss room.
The only way to proceed is by logging out, according to the original poster who lost a Tier 3 key because of the error.
They explained, “This issue has happened twice in 4 runs now. I thought it might have happened from instantly killing all the bosses but the second time I killed them one by one with a few seconds between and [it] still happened…”
This doesn’t seem an entirely isolated incident, given that talks of a similar bug have popped up on Reddit. User SneakyStabbalot shared a screenshot showing their World Tier 3 run, which ended without them receiving any of their hard-earned loot.
“I defeated the Council… then nothing – this is after 5 runs. Also, cannot leave or teleport. Must quit the session and reload,” the user wrote.
Another player in the officialDiablo 4 Forumsreported a different issue, one wherein they’re unable to complete the ‘Slay the remaining enemies’ objective because the area is empty of foes to fight.
