The lower-end scores aren’t that low, either. But once it gets rolling? Yes, I think you’re going to like Diablo 4. Blizzard really seems like it’s nailed this, and I’m going to say the only way this will be poorly received at launch is if technical issues kill people’s ability to play. My impressions are overwhelmingly positive based on what I’ve experienced so far, from the map to the gameplay to the new systems to even the story, which I was not expecting. Our own Paul Tassi gives the game a 9/10 and writes:

Hail Lilith, oh denizens of Sanctuary, Diablo is back. It’s the alluring shadow, the ragged whisper in the wind it’s quintessentially Diablo in every way.

PCGamesN’s Lauren Bergin gives Diablo IV a 10/10 writing:ĭiablo 4 is the Diablo game I’ve been needing – in fact, I’d argue it’s the best Diablo game of all time a statement that’s controversial, I know. It has a 92/100 on Xbox Series X and an 87/100 on PS5. Currently it’s rated 88/100 on review aggregation site Metacritic on PC. The game is reviewing quite well with critics. Embark on the campaign solo or with friends, through beautifully dark settings, or explore a shared world where players can meet in towns to trade, team up to battle world bosses, or descend into PVP zones to test their skills against other players. Here’s Blizzard’s description of the game:ĭiablo® IV is the ultimate action RPG experience with endless evil to slaughter, countless abilities to master, nightmarish dungeons, and legendary loot. The game is now live! Blizzard has launched the long-awaited sequel to 2012’s Diablo III at last! The full global launch of Diablo IV will take place on June 5th and 6th depending on your region, and mirrors the exact same times as Early Access:ĭiablo IV is fully cross-play and cross-progression across all platforms, though you’re required to have a account. Pre-loads for the game on all platforms are already live.Įarly Access will be the full game with the entire game and all content available the same as when it launches.
