Diablo IV Open Beta: Descend into Hell Early
Prepare to face the demonic hordes of Hell, as the Diablo IV Open Beta is finally here. First, immerse yourself in the early game of Diablo IV, with the Prologue and Act 1 available for you to enjoy. Then, join your friends in a 4-player co-op, and explore the first zone, Fractured Peaks, leveling up to 25.
The Open Beta is available on Windows PC, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, and PlayStation 4 from March 24–26.
Explore the Early Game and First Zone
During both the Open Beta weekends, players will experience the early game of Diablo IV, including the Prologue and the entirety of Act 1. In addition, fractured Peaks await your exploration, offering a rugged landscape infested with demons.
Your character can level up to 25 during the Open Beta, and you can continue to fight demons until the Open Beta ends. Then, delve into dungeons, complete quests, and collect powerful loot from fallen foes. Progress will transfer from to Open Beta weekends, but all characters created during these weekends will be deleted once the Beta ends.
Choose from the battle-hardened Barbarian, nimble Rogue, or elemental Sorcerer. The Druid and Necromancer classes will also become available during the Open Beta weekend. A maximum of 10 characters can be created per Battle.net account.
