Wow just like Microsoft to figure something out like a decade too late.

Season 4, very much in particular, is forever perma content and changes for the entire game (season and non season). From the Iron Wolves in Helltides to the Loot stuff, based on posts made today. This is the biggest update the entire game (season and non season/eternal) has and will receive until the expansion later this year. Further, it has been very well received after the recent PTR. I participated; major and welcome improvements.

Previous season themes, it's less specific. If something in a season works, they may try to keep or bring back aspects of it for both season and non-season characters / content. Season 2, for example, was well received and they brought back some of its itemization in Season 3, and now adding a form of its content to the games Helltides starting in season 4 (modified form of season 2 Vampire Helltide events within regular Helltide). These particular examples are permanent additions to the game; so yes seasonal content does have the possibility to be permanent and/or brought back in later seasons.

As a live service game, it should also continue to change/morph going forward. Seasons are a large part of that, but not the only piece. They can, and have, add limited time events throughout a season that offers new content and rewards. Skins/mounts/rewards you unlock in such events are permanent on your account forever. For how long support for this game will actually exist is to be determined; the Diablo series has a history of one expac and a few (big) patches afterwards before they're shelved. This particular development team has promised far more years of support, that was before the Microsoft buyout... We'll see.

The game is online only, and multiplayer in the sense that you will encounter other people in towns and in the open world. All dungeons, including major Storyline dungeons / events, are instanced and can be completed solo (or in a party, optional). The game scales to your level in all content, minus content that has difficulty settings you can select. Like the upcoming Greater Rifts / The Pit endgame coming in Season 4. Or Nightmare Dungeons.

The game is worth picking up if you see it on sale on Steam or have Game Pass if only just to play through the storyline - they did go all out on the production values for that part of the game.
Edit: I would, however, recommend waiting until after Season 4 patch goes live. It's a major transitional point for the game, they're changing how a massive part of the game works, for the better, with the patch. If you play it now, and in two weeks the patch lands while you're still playing it may lead to a lot of confusion.

Somewhat intrigued by this one. I'm not big on co-op and needing to play with friends at my age (with life responsibilities taking most of my time), so I stayed away from the original.

Well if this ever gets off the ground I may look at it. I have fond memories of Tribes. One of the few multiplayer games that, for some reason, wasn't full of griefers and hackers at the time.
