Diablo 4 might not be coming out until next year, but heaps of new gameplay footage leaked over the weekend.
Over on Reddit, user iV1rus0 shared roughly 44 minutes of Diablo 4 video from a private test build. More specifically, two videos: one lasts approximately five minutes while the other approaches 38 minutes. It looks like the person playing was streaming over Discord since there are audible notification sounds throughout the footage from that application.
GLHF verified that the footage is indeed genuine, though we will not host it since Blizzard is already taking most mirrors down. While it’s undoubtedly an early build of Diablo 4, everything appears relatively polished. Sections of the environments are missing textures, but nearly everyone from user interface options and a full suite of combat actions are intact.
Whoever is playing selects the Barbarian class and blitzes through countless demonic minions – as you would expect from an entry in this series, though it’s hard to make out what skills and abilities are in use. Interestingly, some new features like climbing and jumping appear in Diablo 4 — neither of which were in previous entries.
The Diablo 4 gameplay footage probably won’t stay up for too long. Through some wild twist of fate, GTA 6 also leaked this past weekend, which Rockstar isn’t happy about.
