The betas should start chaining for Diablo IVwhose development seems to be moving at high speed since we learned that the game should be released in the course of 2023. Even if Diablo IIIin its time, had been aiming for a May release, it was expected that Diablo IV rather plans its arrival in the second half of the year, until certain statements come to question this.
Who to believe?
According Nick Baker from XboxEra and Jez Corden Windows Central, which have proven to be reliable time and time again, Blizzard would have planned to release Diablo IV from April 2023only a few weeks after the first public beta phases.
According to them, this date could be announced during Game Awards, which will take place next monthand the game might even be entitled to an early access phase starting in February (Comment relayed by Eurogamer).
Don’t believe everything you read.

If we really want to believe them, a tweet from Mike Ybarra, the current CEO of Blizzard, seems to indicate that this is all wrong. If he never points directly to the two journalists or even the information concerning an April release, the following tweet was posted a few hours after the release of the rumor: “ Don’t believe everything you read. »
Inevitably, we see here an answer to Nick Baker and Jez Corden. We would therefore rather tend to think that this date could be wrong, but we imagine that we will be fixed on all this from the Game Awards, whether the game is present or not.
