Blizzard also said players will be able to level up to 20 - but after that, players will stop earning ability points but can still get gear. Progress from the earlier beta weekends will not carry over to the May beta, and progress from that won’t make it over to launch.

Levels will once again be capped at 20, and Blizzard says that feedback and balance changes from the previous betas will be reflected in the new beta. All the beta rewards from previous beta weekends, including the wolf puppy backpack, will be available for players.

(Notably, this is also The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’s launch weekend.)ĭevelopers on-hand at a Diablo 4 developer update livestream on Thursday announced the new dates toward the end of the broadcast. Blizzard originally planned two beta weekends in March, but this will be another chance to test out the game while it’s more than a month out. The next Diablo 4 open beta is scheduled to run May 12 to May 14 for a “server slam” event. Diablo 4 is getting a surprise third beta test ahead of the game’s June 6 release date, Blizzard Entertainment announced Thursday.
