Diablo 4 Preorders: Everything You Need to Know about Blizzard's Dark Adventure
Time for some Diablo 4 preorders! Over three years after its initial reveal, Blizzard Entertainment's highly anticipated role-playing game is finally available for preordering. Diablo 4 promises to be an epic return to form, combining the iconic aesthetic of Diablo 2 with evolved gameplay and advanced controls. In this blog post, we'll delve into the different versions of Diablo 4 available for preorder, the bonuses you can expect, and the release details you need to know.
Diablo 4 preorders come in three different versions: Standard Edition, Deluxe Edition, and Ultimate Edition. Additionally, there's a Collector's Edition box that doesn't include the game. We'll update you on the different retailer listings as they become available, so be sure to check back frequently.
Diablo 4 supports Smart Delivery on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and Xbox. Regardless of whether you're on a last-generation or current-generation console, you'll receive the corresponding version of the game at no additional cost.
Every Diablo 4 preorder grants early access to the game's beta. By making progress in the beta, you can even unlock a wolf cub backpack for the full game! Additionally, all preorders come with bonuses, including the Light Bearer Mount for Diablo 4.
- Standard Edition ($70):
The standard edition of Diablo 4 is the base version priced at $70. While it includes a couple of extras, it is more stripped down compared to the other editions. Nevertheless, preordering this edition still grants early access to the open betas and the Light Bearer Mount.
- Digital Deluxe Edition ($90):
For $90, the Digital Deluxe Edition offers a few more bonuses for avid players. In addition to the Standard Edition bonuses, this edition provides "up to four days" of early access to the game, giving you a head start in the dark adventure of Diablo 4.
- Ultimate Edition ($100):
The Ultimate Edition is designed for the most dedicated players who crave a comprehensive experience. Priced at $100, it grants a significant head start on the battle pass and an exclusive emote. Preordering the Ultimate Edition includes all the benefits of the Digital Deluxe Edition, including the extras and early access.
- Collector's Edition Box ($96.66):
If you're a collector or want exclusive extras, the Collector's Edition box is available for $96.66. However, it does not include the game itself. This option is meant for those who wish to obtain the extras while purchasing a separate copy of the game from the three versions mentioned above. It's exclusively available through the Blizzard Gear Store and is expected to sell out quickly.
