The Season Journey is the primary thing that guides players throughout Seasonal content in Diablo 4. The Season Journey is essentially a large checklist in seven parts, called Chapters, each with their own unique objectives for players to complete. These challenges range from taking down World Bosses to collecting Herbs out in the world, and as the Chapters go on, the objectives become more and more difficult.

By completing Chapters in the Season Journey, players can get a number of rewards, including brand-new Aspects, Battle Pass Favor, and endgame materials. Plan ahead and read through all Chapter objectives in Diablo 4 Season 1 listed below to get a sense of which activities you can go for and which ones you want to avoid in pursuit of Season 1 completion.

Players don't have to finish every single objective in a Chapter to complete it. For most Chapters, this requirement is about two or three less than the total number of objectives, meaning players can avoid the challenges they don't feel like taking on.
