Diablo 4 is free to try on Steam for the next week

Diablo 4 helps Blizzard smash $1bn barrier in latest financial quarter

Conveniently timed to coincide with the launch of this year’s Steam autumn sale, Blizzard has announced a free trial week for Diablo 4 – plus discounts across all versions of the game – starting today and running until 28th November.

Diablo 4’s free trial lets players dip their toes into the world of Sanctuary, and includes full access to co-op and crossplay, but there’s one major limitation: progression is capped at level 20. Exactly how much playtime that equates to is a little unclear, especially given Diablo 4’s Mother’s Blessing event is also now live, boosting XP and Gold by 35% until 27th November.
