Players noticed a distinct lack of a Gauntlet this week, and Blizzard have now commented on the issue.
The final week of a season will never have a Gauntlet running during it. This is due to technical issues with the seasonal switch. The Gauntlet will return next week, however, when Season 4 launches.
Hi all –
We have seen a few reports of players not being able to see the Gauntlet for the final week of the season.
Gauntlets for this season and for future seasons will not occur during the final week of a season. This is due to the final week of the season would have some additional complexities during its wind down period before we begin each new season.
We apologize for not pre-informing on this but Gauntlet will be back for the first week of Season 4 next week.
There is also a separate issue with the previous week’s Gauntlet rewards not being delivered, and Blizzard have said they will be fixing the issue in the next few days.
The team is working on a hotfix to have these delivered in the coming days. They unfortunately did not go out as planned.
Apologies on this!
