Should you skip the campaign in Diablo 4, and if so then how? If you've been working through the previous seasons in this dungeon crawling demon slayer then the question will already be well known to you, but it doesn't hurt to recap the information as well as provide guidance for newer players. The progress system in Diablo 4 can be somewhat confusing if you're unfamiliar with it, as with each new season you need to start a fresh character from scratch, so this process can seem counter-intuitive when initially the campaign acts as your base while you level from 1-50.
Here's the thing – you should absolutely skip the campaign in Diablo 4. You'll already need to have completed it once with your main character on the Eternal Realm to access the Diablo 4 Season 4 content, with the Loot Reborn Season requiring that you create a brand new character on the Seasonal Realm.
Should you decide to skip the campaign, you'll begin as a level 1 character in Kyovashad. From there, take a look at your map and keep an eye out for new objectives indicating the Seasonal Content and Seasonal Quests that you are now able to access. Even without repeating the campaign quests, you will carry over a generous amount of progress in term of unlocking the map and region progress rewards that can be claimed immediately, so it won't take you long to rise through the ranks with your fresh character.
How to skip the campaign in Diablo 4
If you want to skip the campaign in Diablo 4, you'll first need to learn how to create a seasonal character in Diablo 4. Once you've selected your class and customized your hero, you'll need to navigate to the 'Finalize' tab and look for the option to Skip Campaign underneath the Hardcore toggle. Once you have successfully selected the Skip Campaign option, enter your character name, hit Start Game, and then don't forget to join the Seasonal Realm on the next screen.
Season 4 is now live and with it, the Diablo 4 battle pass. Remember, if you want to level up fast in Diablo 4 you'll need to find all the waypoints, uncover areas of the map, and hunt for all the Diablo 4 Altar of Lilith locations if you haven't done so already.
