As the Diablo IV open beta approaches, Blizzard has revealed the minimum and recommended PC requirements for fans.

Blizzard shared the PC specifications for the Diablo IV open beta with fans during a live stream. It is essential to remember that the requirements Blizzard shared are specific to the open beta. Details may change by the time the game’s final version is released.

Currently, the open beta will launch on March 17 for pre-orderers, with a full release scheduled for June 6.

The game will feature classic elements such as procedurally generated dungeons. But it will also bring new features, such as an open world and PVP interactions.

It’s also worth noting that while Blizzard has shared the minimum requirements, the developers have said that the game will try to run on hardware below the minimum. However, the gameplay experience will inevitably suffer as a result. Players who have not pre-ordered the game can also participate in the open beta. However, a shorter window will be available between 24 and 26 March. During the beta, players can play through the game from the beginning to the end of the first act, and everyone will be able to reach level 25. Fans can entirely explore the Fractured Peaks zone during the Diablo IV beta. They can also earn exclusive rewards, but only if they reach certain milestones. These rewards, which include a backpack with a napping puppy inside, as well as titles, will carry over to the full game.
