Diablo 4 is launching in less than two months. Ahead of its release, Blizzard has published a comprehensive list of PC specs for gamers to help them prepare their desktops for the launch of the latest installment in the famed dungeon crawler franchise.
The published PC system requirements for Diablo 4 range from the minimum specs to run the game on the lowest settings to “Ultra 4k” which maxes out the graphics of the ARPG. As expected, any PC or Gaming Laptop from the last three to five years can run the title at lower settings. However, running the game on Ultra 4k will require a pretty beefy graphics card and loads of RAM.
Diablo 4 will attempt to run on PCs that fall below the minimum settings. However, Blizzard emphasizes that the gaming experience may be significantly diminished.

For those who are considering playing Diablo 4 on console, the title will run on 4k, 60 fps on the Xbox Series X and we can only presume that this applies to the PS5 as well. Regardless of your platform of choice, Diablo 4 will let you play with your friends and jump on other platforms as it supports both cross-play and cross-progression.
Blizzard also announced an upcoming open beta weekend for Diablo 4 ahead of the game’s release. Diablo 4’s Server Slam weekend, which takes place on May 12 through 14, is the final chance for players to try out the game before buying it. It will also be the final chance for gamers to earn the beta rewards that will carry over to the final release.
Blizzard has received critical feedback from the open beta which led to major changes in Diablo 4. The game will have less backtracking and repetition in dungeons. There will be balance changes for the Barbarian and Necromancer classes at launch.
Diablo 4 will be releasing seasonal content every quarter and each season will feature a battle pass. Each battle pass will take an estimated 80 hours to complete.
Diablo 4 is coming to PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on June 6.
