Diablo 4 early access release time, date, and how to pre-load Deluxe and Ultimate Edition | Gaming | Entertainment

Diablo 4 is about to make its debut on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. The popular action role-playing game has a June 2 release date, but only if you’ve pre-ordered the Digital Deluxe or Ultimate Edition. The Standard Edition, on the other hand, has a June 6 launch date on all platforms. If you’ve stumped up the cash for early access via the Ultimate or Digital Deluxe Edition, then you can start playing Diablo 4 at midnight UK time on June 2. If you’re living in the US, you can access Diablo 4 at 4pm PDT or 7PM EDT on June 1.

To ensure you don’t miss a second of the action, pre-order customers can pre-load the game ahead of launch.

To pre-load on PC, you’ll need to launch the Battle.net client and visit the Diablo 4 game page. Once you’ve reached the Diablo 4 page, click the dropdown menu under Game Version and select the Diablo 4 option.

If you’ve pre-ordered the game you’ll have the option to install Diablo 4.

Xbox customers, meanwhile, can launch the Xbox Store, search for Diablo 4 and select download. The same is true for the PlayStation version.

Not only does the Ultimate Edition grant users early access to Diablo 4, but it also includes the Light Bearer Mount, the Caparison of Faith Mount Armour, cross-game Items, Diablo 4 Mount and Mount Armour, Wings of the Creator Emote and the Diablo 4 Battle Pass with 20 Tier Skips.

It’s worth noting that the Standard Edition also comes with the Light Bearer Mount, the Caparison of Faith Mount Armour, and cross-game Items.

“Diablo IV is the next-gen action RPG experience with endless evil to slaughter, countless abilities to master, nightmarish Dungeons, and legendary loot,” reads the official description.

“Embark on the campaign solo or with friends, meeting memorable characters through beautifully dark settings and a gripping story.

“Or go rogue through an expansive End Game and shared world where players will meet in towns to trade, team up to battle World Bosses, or descend into PVP zones to test their skills against other players – no lobbies necessary – with cross-play and cross-progression on all available platforms.”
