Players collectively spent over 7000 years in Diablo 4 in its two beta weekends

Diablo 4 concluded its second and final beta period last weekend, and the numbers are in. The two beta weekends—which ran from March 17 to March 20 and March 24 to March 27—made up the largest beta in Diablo history, with over 2.6 million players hitting level 20 and earning themselves a coveted wolf puppy backpack.

Players managed to collectively spend 61.5 million hours in Diablo 4 over the course of the beta, an amount of time equal to over 7000 calendar years. That's, uh, that's too much time. If we bottled all that time up to use however we liked, we'd be able to travel back to the construction of the pyramids and still have 2000 or so years to spare. Diablo is too powerful, and must be stopped.
