The Diablo 4 1.3.4 patch notes have gone live on the Blizzard website a few days ahead of the 1.3.4 update, bringing bug fixes mostly surrounding UI/UX and accessibility. The patch will go live on March 12 for users of all available platforms - Windows, PC, PlayStation, and Xbox (now also Game Pass).
This update will likely be one of the last for Season of The Construct, as the de-facto start date for Season 4 is drawing near. Those enjoying the borderline broken Diablo 4 Barbarian builds can rest easy, as Blizzard has kept their promise of not nerfing the fun specs this time.
