Diablo 4’s Gauntlet and Leaderboards Features Delayed

While Diablo 4 has kicked off its latest season last month, and more recently saw the release of a major new feature in the form of Uber Unique crafting, Blizzard’s Rod Fergusson has revealed that one of the new features coming to the game, Gauntlet and Leaderboards, is being delayed.

Originally planned for release on February 13—the same update that brought Uber Unique crafting—the Gauntlet and Leaderboards features seemingly need more time for polish. While Fergusson has stated that the features are still set for release in Diablo 4 Season 3, there is currently no word on when they will be available.

The recently-added Uber Unique crafting system is a major new feature for Diablo 4. It essentially allows players to get rid of Uber Unique items that they may not want, and turn the crafting materials acquired from scrapping these items into more specific Uber Unique items that might be useful for certain classes or builds.

Diablo 4 is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.

Great seeing the excitement about the Gauntlet & Leaderboards. We're still on track for S3 but decided to take a bit more time to polish a few things up, so it won't be launching on Feb 13 as I mentioned on a recent podcast. We'll share more details and the new date soon.
