Blizzard has confirmed that Diablo 4 will be available on Steam starting October 17, coinciding with the launch of Season of Blood. This means that more players will have the opportunity to battle against Lilith, as the game was previously only accessible through Blizzard’s Battle.net launcher on PC.
With the Steam launch, Diablo 4 will offer full crossplay functionality, allowing players to connect and play with others on different platforms. Existing players who used Battle.net can seamlessly transition to Steam without losing their progress or account data.
In addition to crossplay, the Steam version of Diablo 4 will also provide features specific to the platform, such as Steam achievements and integration with the Steam friends list. This opens up the game to a new player base who may prefer using Steam over Blizzard’s launcher.
It’s important to note that PC players who already own Diablo 4 through Battle.net will need to purchase the game again on Steam in order to access it on the platform.
The Season of Blood, which launches alongside Diablo 4 on Steam, introduces exciting new content including vampiric powers, changes to World Boss spawns, increased chances of finding uber-unique items, and more. Players on Steam will be able to dive right into these new features and experience the latest updates.
If you’re interested in playing Diablo 4 on Steam, you can add the game to your wishlist on the Steam store. Stay tuned for further updates and get ready to embark on an epic battle against Lilith in the world of Diablo 4.
