First and foremost, you can only Reset normal Dungeons in Diablo 4 alongside their Nightmare versions. Both Campaign Dungeons and Strongholds cannot be reset by following the steps outlined in this article.

With that out of the way, it is a relatively straightforward process, but some players have complained about the game's UI for some odd reason. In any case, follow the steps below to reset all applicable Dungeons in Diablo 4:

  • Make sure you are out of the Dungeon you would like to reset.
  • Open your map.
  • On the right-hand side, expand your journal.
  • At the bottom of the journal, below the list of current quests, you will see a button, "Reset Dungeons."
  • Press and hold the button on your controller as the game suggests. On Xbox, this is the X. For PC, just click on the button.
  • A warning will pop up; press the button for Accept.
  • Head into the dungeon again, and everything will have spawned, allowing you to farm your favorite ones over and over again.
