After going gold a few weeks ago, it seems that Diablo 4 is just a few steps away from launch. Blizzard recently announced a second beta for the game which will take place on May 12-14, 2023. While this is a stress test for the game’s servers, the game itself will prove to be a test for some user systems. Despite the minimum specs for the game not demanding much, getting Diablo 4 to run at 4k 60fps will take a DLSS 3-capable GPU. Here are the different performance targets and recommended specifications.

While the game will run on older hardware including dual-core systems, Blizzard warns the experience may be “significantly diminished.” Diablo 4 has gone gold and is just a few months away from launch. An open beta is scheduled for the weekend of May 12 to stress test servers. This will allow Blizzard to make tweaks ahead of the June 6, 2023 release date.
