With a release date penciled in for 2023, it’s no wonder that people are asking about the closed Beta.

Let’s look at the Diablo 4 closed beta and all the details we have.

Diablo 4 Closed Beta Release Date Prediction

Right now, it’s a bit tough to guess when the Diablo 4 closed beta will start, but not impossible. We know that the game is scheduled for release in 2023, and we also know that a beta version of the game reportedly exists, according to leakers on Reddit.

Even better, we have a developer update you watch above that gives us essential info on the closed beta. With this info, we can be relatively sure that we’ll see the Diablo 4 Closed beta in October 2022 since the open beta is confirmed for early 2023.

How to Get into the Diablo 4 Closed Beta

The developers have clarified that the Diablo 4 closed beta will focus on end-game content. As such, invitations will be given out to players with a lot of experience with end-game Diablo content.

Blizzard is planning on using Battle.net info to invite specific players into the closed beta. If you have a lot of time in Diablo 3, follow these instructions to be in with a chance of getting invited:

Open the Battle.net launcher.
Click your name, then click ‘view account’ from the drop-down menu.
Click ‘Privacy & Communication.’
Scroll down, and make sure ‘News and Special Offers from Battle.net’ is enabled.
If it’s not, click ‘update’ to enable it.

This won’t guarantee entry into the beta, but it’s a good start.

Diablo 4 Leaks

Blizzard has been battling Diablo 4 Leaks for a little while now. In September 2022, nearly a full hour of Dialbo 4 footage was uploaded to Reddit.

The Redditor who posted the footage claimed it was from the game’s Beta, which seemed to be backed up by the inclusion of a ‘private test build’ watermark all over the gameplay.

Mostly, the footage showed off the classic dungeon-crawling hack-and-slash gameplay we’re familiar with. That said, there’s also a great amount of detail visually, and the tone looks to be a lot more grim and dark, especially in an artistic sense.

Many sites have been hosting the footage, though Blizzard has been pretty quick about DMCAing anyone who has it.
