Hero Siege Season 10 — Ebontharn Changes & Patch Notes

Live since 2026-08-21. Review confirmed changes, the latest hotfix context, and current build references.

Hero Siege runs on a seasonal model where each season introduces new mechanics, classes, balance changes, and a fresh start for all players. Season 10, titled Ebontharn, launched on August 21, 2026. It adds the free Act 9 campaign chapter, makes Act 8 part of the base game, and changes the campaign route into endgame.

Seasonal play is recommended for the best experience. Everyone starts fresh, so you compete on an even playing field. Your non-seasonal characters are never deleted. They remain available when the season ends and seasonal characters convert to non-seasonal. If you're new to Hero Siege, starting seasonal means learning the current meta from day one rather than catching up on outdated content.

For Act 9 access and the patch-sensitive launch changes, read the Hero Siege Ebontharn guide. Current build pages retain their cited build data, but should not be read as a Season 10 tier list until they are individually revalidated.
