Blizzard announced last year it will hold a public beta for Diablo 4 closer to launch. With the action RPG scheduled to come out this year, the studio has already started sharing new information about the upcoming game, but it hasn't confirmed the schedule of the open beta. Thankfully, Blizzard has confirmed that an announcement is coming soon.

Recently, Blizzard Senior Vice President Rod Fergusson took the time to interact with gamers on Twitter. One fan asked Fergusson if he can give gamers information about the open beta. The Blizzard boss hinted that the announcement will happen in an upcoming event.

"Soon!," Fergusson tweeted. "If only we were presenting at some sort of gaming moment this month where one might announce such a thing."

The cryptic message from Fergusson points to the studio's participation in IGN's Fan Fest 2023 later this month. The showcase event will be taking place on February 17th and 18th and will give players a sneak peek at upcoming games such as Hogwarts Legacy, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, and Street Fighter 6.
