The game is fully cross play and cross progression on all platforms, PS4 and PS5 included. Crossplay will be enabled for the beta too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the menu options should say “Open beta” (only available if you preordered, otherwise it will become available next Wednesday). The beta client is treated as a different edition of the game. thank you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't say it wasn't happening, was just saying I hadn't seen it confirmed yet. But based on the below quote, it appears I was reading an outdated article. 10 hours ago, mrmivo said: The game is fully cross play and cross progression on all platforms, PS4 and PS5 included.

Assumed it would be either way but had me sweating for a second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assumed it would be either way but had me sweating for a second. I think it was confirmed right after the announcement of the Necromancer class a whole year ago. I wasn't even expecting it to be released on old-gen systems before that (or on PlayStation at all... but hey, it was formally announced for PC, Xbox and PlayStation back in 2019!)

Deluziion90 Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 Crossplay would be great if it also supports trophies. I've bought it on pc and I'm sure if it's not a moneygrabbing immortal style game I'll be pumping in hundreds of hours. Nice bonus if it drops on sale for psn in a few years to get a free autopop platinum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXIIlII Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Already pre ordered but can't download the beta, it tells me to pre order first lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmivo Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) I really enjoyed this beta and played more than I expected. Got a barb to 23, sorcerer to 25, and a melee rogue to 25. Rogue engaged me the most, though it was the least likely class I thought I’d enjoy. Felt really great with the controller. The game ran smoothly on the PS5 and looked very good, no issues. Cross-play with people on PC was flawless, even across regions. I had a key for PC also and cross-progression was enabled. That too was a seamless experience. I wasn’t sure which platform I’d play this on, but after the beta and the very positive crossplay experience with PC friends, I settled on the PS5. That’s where I preordered it anyway. Looking forward to next weekend’s beta and the release. Edited March 20, 2023 by mrmivo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacko_the_lad Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 I have no experience of Diablo at all, but I saw some gameplay of this beta and it looks great. Reminds me of the Gauntlet games I used to love. So I'm definitely giving this beta a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iksde Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 (edited) I hope I will make some time to actually play the beta this weekend. I have tons of little things to do, RE4 to play, Dead Space to play, John Wick to see Also, I wonder how many people will name their female barbarians Abby Edited March 24, 2023 by Iksde Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacko_the_lad Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 So you wait ages in a queue, only to then link your Battle.net account and get stuck on a "logging in" screen again? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's cross-play between all platforms so I guess they needed battle.net to connect console folks with PC players. I'll just wait for the full version.

Lance_87 Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 The beta is good, but my biggest concern are the forced disconnects when you teleport from a dungeon to town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played for three hours last night and never had any disconnects. The only issues were occasional rubber banding when entering certain areas. Though are you in the US? I heard there's more issues on US servers than Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it doesn't make any sense that ONLY using the town portal makes me disconnect. Entering/exiting a dungeon doesn't cause issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skurkitty Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 I'm fully expecting a D2 type list, or if anything a more MMO(ish) grind kind of list. I won't be surprised to see a 200-300+ hr Plat, not that I'll mind it at all personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creasy007 Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 I've been wondering the same. Six days until early launch, sort of surprised it's not available yet. Hopefully no later than early next week but even that's pushing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
