Those who pre-order a copy of Diablo 4 will get to participate in two beta sessions in March. Those who pre-ordered one of the larger versions of the game, such as the Ultimate or Digital Deluxe level, will get to test play the game for three days between March 17th and March 19th. The open beta for everyone else will take place the next weekend, March 24th through March 26th.

If you get access to the first round of beta testing, you’ll also be able to play during the second round, and testing will be available on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox console. Console-wise, the game will be available on both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 in addition to Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S consoles.

Still, you can continue playing the beta if you max out your level, and some Blizzard employees have already teased those reach Level 20 will get a reward to use once the main game launches.
