During a recent discussion about the Server Slam open beta, Rod Fergusson, the general manager of Diablo 4, offered reassurance to the passionate fan base. With the launch of Diablo 4 on the horizon, Fergusson confidently stated that the team is fully prepared to handle the massive influx of players expected to flood the servers.
