A decent chunk off the original price for the game. If you've been curious to see what it's like, 25% off for a new Blizzard release, on PC, is probably a good time to check it out.

Here's some useful links to get you started as you traverse through Sanctuary:

Welcome to Hell

Diablo® IV is the ultimate action RPG experience with endless evil to slaughter, countless abilities to master, nightmarish dungeons, and legendary loot. Embark on the campaign solo or with friends, meeting memorable characters through beautifully dark settings and a gripping story, or explore an expansive end game and shared world where players can meet in towns to trade, team up to battle world bosses, or descend into PVP zones to test their skills against other players – no lobbies necessary – with cross-play and cross-progression on all available platforms.

This is only the beginning for Diablo® IV, with new events, stories, seasons, rewards, and more looming on the horizon.

Other notables:
D2:R is currently $22.95, D3 + RoS is $29.90, and the (entire collection D2:R + D3 + D3: RoS), is $44.85

    I absolutely LOVE D,D2,D3 but i'm unsure of D4. Can someone compare the new to the others?
    I was a WoW player for 15+years, but after Blizz had the shit-show sexual harrassment things going on, i kinda lost interest.
    Plus paying $20p/m for a 20+yo game built on an old graphics engine was getting too much.
    These days i'd expect a game to tax latest updated rigs to take advantage of new hardware.
    Is the new D4 demanding on cpu/gpu's?

      I hate to say it, but D4 is worse than Diablo Immortal. The campaign is fine, the soundtrack is epic, but that's pretty much all you're getting (I don't even think the graphics are anything to write home about). The community has pretty much totally moved on to BG3 or alternatives, because Blizzard have destroyed any reason to actually play past the campaign. As it is right now, D4 is boring, with a capital B.

      The only thing D4 fans can really hope for is that Microsoft get their way and acquire ActiBlizz to right the ship.

          Now playing D4 everything looks silly. If you played D2 now you would find it repetitive and boring too? except the nostalgia has already registered in your head and it will stay there for good

            @ChatCPT: I still play D2 median and love it, but that's because it actually has endgame content not end game grind. I found d3 rift grinds boring and dumb.

            @ChatCPT: I bought D2R just before D4 came out because I knew I wasn't going to play D4 (too expensive and didn't enjoy open beta) but still wanted to get my Diablo fix. It's definitely repetitive, but not boring. I haven't finished Hell yet, level 83 Sorc, playing for 1-2 hours every few days with some gaps. I'm still playing other stuff, but still enjoying the grind for end game items. Eventually I'll beat Hell and the Uber bosses, but I'm in no rush. Plus, there's like 6 more classes to finish Hell with! And so many builds! I never feel pigeon-holed like I did in D3.

      D4 is fairly demanding on GPUs. There's still currently a memory leak in the game that causes stuttering if you play for extended periods of time. They also had Season 1 pre-planned as part of D4's rollout, so a lot of the community feedback won't be taken on-board until at least Season 2 in October, and even still, it won't be what most people's expectations are for D4.

      I'd say D4 in it's current state is what D3 was during its early years: slow and clunky gameplay and mechanics that don't make a whole lot of sense (the current dungeon traversal system, for example).

      D4 will be fantastic, in my opinion, 3-5+ years from now.

        Hilariously, this has been there since the closed beta. Devs promised something 2 months ago and it's still not been fixed.

      • incipient on 30/08/2023 - 09:54

        D4 is absolutely not demanding at all, at 4k on max settings (with high res pack) it rarely goes above 5% gpu usage (granted on a 4080, but still, it's not demanding) - grim dawn uses more!

        I don't get how he dungeon system is much worse than just clearing rifts? D3 you'd complete an entire season just staying in town and doing rift after rift. Now that was boring!

      • sssx on 01/09/2023 - 13:38

      I've sunk a fair few hours into D4 Season 1. I've still enjoyed it overall and there are many good aspects to the game, but also many big flaws/issues with the design that detract from the fun. I feel like I'll stop playing soon and see if it gets better over time.

      If I were you I'd wait it out and check in again in 3, 6, 12 months to see what the player reception is before buying it. Hopefully they address some of the key player concerns.

        • Be careful on 31/08/2023 - 06:30

          I would say it’s worth about $40 in its current state. I wanted to enjoy it but. The grind past 50 is as boring as hell and they made grinding even harder. Add to that bag/ stash space nonsense and no loot filters and it becomes unenjoyable. Might b ok in 1 year but most will have left by then. How hard would it be to have a larger stash space which is shared with all character? It gets packed with 1.

      2/10 is for user reviews, with obvious review bombing (lots of 0/10 ratings). Critic reviews are 8.5/10. While the game does sound like a disappointment and I have no intention of buying it, just bear in mind even good games can get review bombed, so user score is generally not the best indicator of quality.

      • spixder on 30/08/2023 - 11:13

        Well probs reviewed bomb for a reason, maybe if it was an $80 game at launch rather than $120, it wouldnt have copped such backlash, plus games that get bombed to 2.0 must be in general relatively bad, who'd waste their time to post a low score unless they were genuinely disgruntled.

        The fun part about critic reviews vs user reviews is that 99.99% of players fall into the 'users' category. A Critic will spend their required 1-10 hours reviewing a game and give it a score based on that. Users on the other hand have far more critiques and opinions. If you trust critic reviews over user reviews, that's fine, but keep in mind that even this bragain thread is mostly negative about the experience of the game.

    I had a blast for 30 hours before it became boring and repetitive. It's just the gear & level grind post the campaign that was a let down.

    The lack of effective communication kills the social dynamic of the game too. I was happy grinding in WoW, for example, because you're constantly chatting with friends.

    Having said all that, $85 for 30 hours of fun is great value. The combat mechanics and experimenting with builds is good.

    • ozbagends on 30/08/2023 - 08:40

      Sorry $85 for 30 hours is not great value. I played the whole campaign and was hugely disappointed. The story started off good and went downhill from there. The whole time I was playing I felt no progression in my character. In fact, as I lvled I managed to feel weaker thanks to their scaling system and lack of good loot until you are past lv 60. By the time I got to 60, I was finished with the campaign and the game. Sorry this game is not good at all. I have been a fan of diablo since 2 and have 100s of hours in 3.. dont waste your money on 4.

    Is discount additive or multiplicative? You never know with Blizzard. Even they don't understand their own maths.

    Starfield effect looll.

    This is the biggest mistake I have done. Enjoyed the pre-season game so I purchased a separate copy for my PC. Was excited for the season until I realised it's a complete big FLOP.

    Literally wasted Ultimate copy for the ps5 and standard copy for my PC.

    Please DO NOT BUY

    I got this instead of FFXVI thinking it has higher chance of getting ongoing playtime, but I was so wrong. I enjoyed getting up to level 75 in season 0, and then like everyone else lost the desire to start over again in season 1 due to the lack of endgame direction. No unique endgame dungeons, no realistic endgame unique gear to chase. It all very quickly becomes pointless. I mean, if the game is mostly about grinding loot, why won’t they actually put some rare but obtainable endgame uniques that are much better than the generic randomised ones?

    This game is actual garbage. 90% of the players have quit due to actiblizz’s incompetence. No QoL features. Lack of content. No true endgame. Game has nothing going for it. And yes I got the ultimate edition on launch and it was not worth it whatsoever.

    It's not worth it in its current state; I have 2 level 100s and still play it. There is no real benefit to playing it now vs in a few months when it's a bit more polished. Wait until further price drops unless you desperately want to play it. They only discounting it because of starfield.

      Haha what on earth possessed you to get one lv100, let alone two!?

      I would say if you're sunk that many (hundreds?) of hours into it you've probably got your money's worth already in terms of hours/$ paid.

      I only played about 30h with a friend before getting bored.

        It is great for first 2 character to gain lv 100, quite a lot of things to build around skills and weapons. They should make a game "an idiot among us" for you.
        True it is boring after third time.

        • incipient on 30/08/2023 - 10:53

          Ooo someone is salty.

          I just don't find grinding the same 10 or so dungeons for 200h+ fun. Granted the character building is quite decent.

          Now D2 median with their actual end game progression of bosses/challenges, that's fun!

      Are you playing hardcore?
