Blizzard is teasing a ‘secret announcement’ for today’s Diablo 4 livestream

Blizzard is teasing a mystery announcement set to be made during a Diablo 4 livestream on Thursday.

The 90-minute developer presentation, which begins at 11am PT / 2pm ET / 7pm BST, will feature endgame details and beta learnings on classes and dungeons.

Seemingly hinting at a special announcement too, Diablo franchise general manager Rod Fergusson tweeted about the event: “Is this the one with the secret announcement or are we not talking about that yet? I would hate to give it away.”

Some fans are speculating that a second Diablo 4 beta could be on the cards.

Quote tweeting a fan’s request for more Diablo 4 game time, the official Diablo Twitter account said: “That can be arranged…”

A Diablo 4 open beta and early access test were held last month. According to Blizzard, players logged more than 61.5 million hours of gameplay across two weekends, killing nearly 30 billion monsters and dying almost 47 million times.
