If you want to get a sense of much time you’ll be spending destroying Lilith’s demon hordes, here’s a spoiler-free explainer for how many acts there are in Diablo 4.
Much like previous Diablo games, the story in Diablo 4 is told across several acts to help make this top-down dungeon crawler all the more epic. You’ll move from one act into the other, usually coming across even more powerful hellish monsters as you do so while levelling up. Activision Blizzard’s latest is a tad different in that you’re able to choose in what order you complete the early acts, however, giving you some influence in how you experience the narrative in a different way to before.
Following the Diablo 4 Prologue that can be finished in roughly 10 to 15-minutes, it’s out into the world of Sanctuary proper you must go, choosing to tackle Act 1, Act 2 or Act 3 first – they can be beaten in any order. Beyond Act 3 events get a little complex, but it very much acts as a dividing point in the game. If you’re worried about Diablo 4’s nonlinear structure and want to know how many acts make up the game in total, we have the answer.
