During The Game Awards 2022, Diablo 4's release date was locked down to June 5/June 6, depending on your region.

During the Xbox/Bethesda Games Showcase in June 2022, Blizzard then announced that Diablo IV is expected to be released in 2023.Ī leak from early December 2022 suggested that we would see the game launching in June 2023.

The decision to delay it would "push out the financial uplift" that the publisher expected to see in 2022, which meant that Diablo 4's release date would likely not occur sooner than 2023. In November 2021, during Activision's Q3 2021 earnings call, it was confirmed that the release of the game would be delayed, mirroring the delay of Overwatch 2. At its announcement, Blizzard specified that the game was in the early phases of development, with many decisions yet to be made. The release of Diablo IV, after an extended anticipation, is nearly upon us.
