Infernal Hordes are getting a rework in Diablo 4 Season 10 with Chaos Rifts spawning frequently and adding new monsters, including an army of Goblins! Blizzard announced a new boss, new monsters, reworked rewards and offerings for Infernal Hordes, but they did not mention the new Chaos Rifts could be infested with Goblins. Historically lackluster, Goblins in Diablo 4 got new variants to match with their Diablo 3 counterparts earlier this year, making them much more rewarding in the process. Infernal Hordes seem to bring another new variant into the mix with new Aether Goblins.

In a post on the Diablo 4 Reddit, user Angren1991 encountered this magical moment in an Infernal Horde with a Goblin Rift, filling the area with these new Aether Goblins.

As loot from Infernal Hordes can only come from the caches at the end of a run, these Goblins appear to be designed specifically for Infernal Hordes, and drop Aether instead of generic loot found on normal Goblins. With Aether having more uses now, including spawning the new Bartuc Boss Encounter and buffed rewards from the caches at the end.
