Blizzard has launched a Diablo IV free trial for this weekend.

As reported by Video Games Chronicle, Diablo IV is free to play from today until October 30, 2023. But this is only available on Battle.net.

Blizzard has also implemented a level cap for this free trial. So, the trial will also end for you when you hit Level 20.

It’s for this reason that Blizzard had to try extra hard with Season 2, Season of Blood. They have pulled out the stops with this one, bringing vampires into the Diablo universe for the first time, and grabbing a big Hollywood celebrity to draw
