The full, official, no-takes-backsies launch of Diablo 4

The full, official, no-takes-backsies launch of Diablo 4

After beta tests, server slams, and a pre-order early access period, this is it: the full, official, no-takes-backsies launch of Diablo 4. The game is now live as of 4 pm PST on Monday, June 5.

So far the servers seem to be holding up just fine: Multiple members of  D4 items the PC Gamer team have been able to log in with no queue times or other issues. Unless something goes horribly wrong in the next few hours, it looks like Blizzard has expertly dodged the dreaded error 37 that plagued Diablo 3's launch. Diablo 4 had a bit of trouble with logins during its beta, but that rough patch clearly helped Blizzard prepare for today's full launch.

There may be an issue with in-game purchases, though: a warning message in Battle says that "Players may encounter problems while attempting to make purchases in Diablo 4. We are working to resolve the issue as soon as possible and apologize for the inconvenience."

For our take on whether Diablo 4's worth your time, check out  D4 unique items  our Diablo 4 review-in-progress. We haven't put a final score on it yet, as during the pre-launch period some key live service systems weren't online.
