Diablo 4 Beta Spotted On Battlenet Launcher

July 23, 2022. Added comment by Rod Fergusson.

The Diablo 4 beta has been added to Blizzard's Battle.net launcher, as spotted by some rather eagle-eyed users. While it isn't currently visible on the launcher's front-end, new data in the catalogue configuration files shows that a beta test for the RPG game is being prepared to be surfaced on the launcher.

This is not the first time that Diablo 4 appears on the Battle.net launcher catalog files. There are already multiple references that refer to 'Fenris,' the codename that Blizzard confirmed that it was using internally for the project. These are also related to Diablo 3.

This latest news suggests that players might be able to get their hands on the fantasy game's beta in the near future - although it's quite likely that the initial rollout will be fairly limited. Typically, Blizzard tends to restrict its first rounds of testing to 'friends and family,' before moving to wider-reaching closed beta and then open beta tests.

It's also worth noting that fans who have been getting themselves a free Diablo 4 tattoo as part of the game's promotional Hell's Ink tour are receiving cards saying that they have been granted access to "an upcoming beta for Diablo IV" along with a digital copy of the game upon release. This is a strong indication that a beta may be coming sooner rather then later, at least for those fortunate enough to be invited.

Update - July 23: Diablo general manager Rod Fergusson has confirmed on Twitter that the current beta showing up on the launcher is intended for internal only testing. He adds, "Sorry! As we move forward on the path to shipping in 2023, we will continue to have more public testing."

While Diablo 4's release date may still be some time off, we do know many details about the multiplayer game. These include the campaign length and level cap. There are also information about the classes returning to Diablo 4, which you will be able to play. Hopefully all of them will be available in the beta as well, whenever it does appear.
