Diablo IV Has Gone Gold

Blizzard today announced the gold status of Diablo IV. That date is now more tangible because Blizzard made this announcement. This means that the game is almost complete and ready to be burned to discs.

The game is set to arrive on PlayStation and Xbox consoles plus PC, and while it’s good to go for launch, Blizzard plans to continually update the always-online game with various content updates over the next several years. In March 2018, fans were able to experience the revamped Sanctuary in the form of two weekend-long open betas.

“Going gold is a landmark milestone for the incredible Diablo IV team, who have all worked so hard crafting the next-generation installment of this iconic franchise. This is a concrete, meaningful step toward our June 6 launch,” said Rod Fergusson, general manager of Diablo. “Whether players are veterans of the franchise or jumping in for the first time, we can’t wait for everyone to experience the full game: taking part in the incredible storytelling, experimenting with character classes and builds, and exploring what the endgame and the dark world of Sanctuary has to offer.”
