Ladder Season 9
Our previous Ladder Seasons for Diablo II: Resurrected have showed just how adept adventurers were at saving Sanctuary, racing to be the first to cement their names on the Leaderboard, while striking fear into the tormented hearts of their demonic adversaries in the process.
Ladder Season 9 will usher in a new opportunity for brave adventurers to blitz to Level 99 and amass powerful loot along the way. We can’t wait to see which determined souls carve their name into the Leaderboard this time.

For those new to Ladder Seasons, you might be wondering what happens to your Shared Stash loot once the current season ends.
Once Ladder Season 8 ends, all Ladder characters will be transferred to their respective non-ladder group. All items in that character group's Shared Stash go into a new Withdraw Only set of Shared Stash tabs, denoted by a check marked Past box. Any items from Ladder Season 7 stored in the Withdraw Only tabs will be lost at this time. You will have all of Ladder Season 9 to withdraw any items you would like to keep from Season 8. When Ladder Season 9 ends, this withdraw only set of Stash Tabs will be overridden with any items in the Ladder Season 8 Shared Stash. Be sure to get any items out before then or they will be forever lost!
May your Ladder journey be filled with fiends to eviscerate and bountiful loot.
