Diablo 4 developer Blizzard has revealed that they are making the latest Sanctuary-based ARPG free to play for 10 hours on Xbox this weekend. If you’ve been on the fence about getting the newest series installment, this will be the perfect chance for you to try out all of the new features included with Diablo 4, especially with Season of the Blood only having begun.

Gamers with an Xbox console can start playing starting October 19, 2023, at 12:01 a.m. PDT, to October 22, 2023, at 11:59 p.m. PDT. A Game Pass Core or Ultimate subscription also won’t be necessary to avail of the free trial, meaning you can experience most of the game’s initial portion at no cost. Of course, to fully explore the best Diablo 4 Season 2 aspects and the Diablo 4 Season 2 class tier list, you will have to purchase the base game at full price afterward.

In addition, Xbox Wire’s announcement also revealed their Free Play Days event, which allows Game Pass Core and Ultimate subscribers to experience a selection of games during the same period. According to their statement, members can choose from either NBA 2K24, Lawn Mowing Simulator, or Hokko Life, after which these prolonged free trials will be removed once the weekend concludes.

Of course, if you decide to purchase a Game Pass membership, you will still have access to the platform’s extensive game catalog, including hits like Forza Motorsport, Lies of P, Pentiment, and many others. With so many critically acclaimed creations to choose from, there’s never been a better time to get stuck in, as this promo only lasts for a limited time.
