Diablo 4 Closed End Game Beta Platforms

Generally speaking, closed beta tests have been primarily available on PC first, with following beta tests for a variety of titles branching out into other platforms, such as Xbox and PlayStation. This is not the case for Diablo 4.

We are happy to report that Diablo 4's Closed End Game Beta will be open to PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5 platforms.

There will also be cross-play and cross-progression for all platforms!

Blizzard is looking for only experienced players and endgame grinders to test out this Diablo 4 beta and its content.

Blizzard explains: "We’ll be using gameplay data to invite a limited number of Diablo players who have recently spent significant amounts of time playing the end-game experiences of Diablo II: Resurrected, Diablo III, and Diablo Immortal."

The developer did not reveal precisely how much time Diablo players need to spend, but we expect it to be a lot.

The final invites go out on 18th November 2022, so if you haven't received an invite to the Diablo 4 Closed End Game Beta by then, you will have to wait until public testing starts in "early 2023".

Diablo 4 Closed End Game Beta Content

As the name suggests to most players, the Diablo 4 Closed End Game Beta test is about the endgame experience.

Blizzard explains why an End Game Beta for Diablo 4 is needed: "For many, the end game is their favorite aspect of Diablo - we want to ensure it feels satisfying, and with no shortage of challenging variety to experience across many, many demon-slaying gaming sessions. To achieve this, we’re collecting community feedback early so that it may be integrated into Diablo IV prior to launch."

There will be a feedback tool that participants can use, and four Diablo 4 End Game features will be tested, namely:

Paragon Boards - Character growth system after reaching max level.
Fields of Hatred - PvP zones where players dispatch demons to collect Seeds of Hatred. Convert this into Red Dust before you are slayed.
Whispers of the Dead - Complete tasks across Sanctuary to get Grim Favors. 10 at a time can be exchanged at the Tree of Whispers for some big rewards.
Helltide - Region-wide event that becomes available at World Tier Three: Nightmare difficulty. Empowered demons to fight, Cinders to collect and Helltide Chests to open for shiny rewards.
Nightmare Dungeons: Nightmare-difficulty dungeons in Diablo IV unlock upon locating your first Nightmare Sigil. Each sigil corresponds to a specific dungeon somewhere within Sanctuary. These sigils will add special modifiers to their dungeon, increasing the ferocity of the hell-servants waiting for you inside and providing higher-rarity loot.

Blizzard also does mention one additional piece of content, teasing a powerful foe: "Take stock of the skills and knowledge you cultivate from playing through these features; you’ll need every tool at your disposal to defeat the Closed End Game Beta’s boss!"

So there you have it, a complete, step-by-step guide to get a shot at joining the Diablo 4 Closed Endgame Beta, the platforms it will be available on, and, of course, the content lucky players will be able to experience.
