First, we want to thank the wonderful community for jumping into our Early Access Beta this past weekend. We have been combing through all the feedback and will continue to do so through the Open Beta to capture and address notes from players before launch.

We do want to remind players that this is a beta and with that we are testing numerous things from our server load to the gameplay through Act I. This test and your feedback will help us as we head into launch for Diablo IV in June. We greatly appreciate your patience and help to make the best possible experience for all players at launch.

The Diablo IV Open Beta begins March 24th at 9am PDT and will conclude on March 27th at 12pm PDT.

There will be a small client patch prior to Open Beta to address some bugs and issues that players may have experienced last weekend. You can read more about the items below.
