From here on out, Blizzard will likely be working on last-minute polish for Diablo 4, possibly for a day one patch, as well as the post-launch content we know is heading to the game in quarterly updates. Diablo 4 fans also got more news, recently, with the reveal that Diablo 4 will run at 4K / 60 FPS on Xbox Series X and 1080p / 60 FPS on Xbox Series S.

It's still too early to tell if Diablo 4 will end up being one of the best Xbox games of the year, but things are looking positive after the conclusion of the Diablo 4 Open Beta. Now, Diablo 4 is less than two months away; if you want to ensure you can play the moment the game releases (or if you want early access), Diablo 4 is now available to preorder.
