There’s something so satisfying about finding that single piece of loot you need to perfect your character, that weapon or breastplate that suddenly turns you into an unstoppable juggernaut. No franchise manages to hit that sweet spot quite like Diablo, and after two years of extensive reworking and updates, it’s clear that Diablo 4 is the most complete vision of the franchise to date. It’s the definitive looter action-RPG, and it’s finally available for free to all PlayStation Plus users.
Diablo 4 takes place over 50 years after Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls, and while it’s helpful to have knowledge of the previous games, Diablo 4 does a good enough job getting you up to speed that you can go in blind to its surprisingly engaging story.
