Basic Information & Quick FAQ on D4
-Launch Date: June 6th, 2023
-Collectors Edition: does NOT INCLUDE the Game (neither a physical copy, nor a code), only physical collectible items! The game has to be bought separately.
-Open Beta Start Date: unknown at the moment
-Open Beta Length: at least 2 days for everyone, but those that pre-purchase any version of the game have earlier access to it (how many days earlier access is unknown).
-Open Beta Progress: will NOT transfer over to the Game once it is launched.
-System Requirements: no official information at the moment.
-Offline Mode: No Offline Mode. Online-only, including for Consoles (so unlike D3 on consoles, no offline mode for consoles with D4).
-Local Co-op / Couch Co-op / Console Co-op: No couch co-op on PC. Yes on consoles, but only for up to 2 Players (same for all Home Consoles).
-Crossplay: is available across all platforms.
-Is progress, cosmetics, etc shared between PC, Xbox, PS5, etc? Your Progress, Cosmetics, etc are saved on your Battle.net account, so yes, they are shared between your PC, Xbox, PS, etc copies of the game you may have, provided you are logged in on the same Battle.net account.
-Do I need to buy a copy for each platform separately to play it? Yes. In order to play the game on PC, you need a PC copy. To play it on console, you need a copy for the particular console.
-Start of the 1st Season: A few weeks after launch, but the exact time is unknown at the moment.
-How Dark is Diablo 4? Yes.
-Cow Level: there is no Cow Level.
-Infos on the Battle Pass: There is a Free Battle Pass and a Premium Battle Pass. Premium BP cost 10$, gives access to unlock cosmetics only. Both Free & Premium BP last for a season (3 months)
-Is D4's Premium Battle Pass pay2win? Short Answer: NO!
-Is D4's Premium Battle Pass pay2win? Long Answer: The Premium Battle Pass does NOT give an XP Boost. There is an XP Boost in the FREE Battle Pass. Buying the Premium Battle Pass does NOT unlock or accelerate the pace at which you get the XP Boost of the Free Battle Pass. XP Boosts only apply to your OTHER seasonal Characters, AFTER one of them has fulfilled certain requirements, like reaching a certain Character Level (evtl. Max Character Level ?), so it will only make it faster to level seasonal Alts, not your seasonal Main Char. ).
-D4's ingame Shop: only sells cosmetic via Premium Currency, but not power. Premium Currency can also be gained by playing the game.
Gameplay FAQ
-Does D4 have a Skill Tree? Yes.
-Does D4 have Skill Points? Yes, D4 has Skill Points (these are shared by Active and Passive Skills)
-Does D4 have Skill Runes like in D3? No, but there are ways to modify Active Skills further (both via Items and via the Skill Tree)
-Does D4 have a Paragon System? Yes, but it is very different than Paragon from D3. Unlike D3's Paragon, D4's Paragon is NOT account-wide and you do NOT have unlimited Points for it (gained from Level 50 to 100 + via some other objectives). It is "Paragon in Name-only" so to speak.
-Does D4 have Respecs? Yes, but they cost D4 Gold. You can respec individual Skill Points. Due to the Gold Costs for respecs increasing with Character Level, you can't respec High Level Characters too much each day.
-Does D4 have Trading? Yes, but only Normal, Magic and Rare Items (+ Gems, D4 Gold & Elixirs) can be traded, but not Legendaries or Uniques. Rare Items can be enchanted further, but then can no longer be traded.
-Does D4 have an Auction House like D3? No Auction House in D4.
