Blizzard’s Diablo III launches at midnight – that’s around 13 hours away – yet some fans are already queueing up outside HMV’s flagship Oxford Street store.

The first dedicated fan showed up on Saturday, with a sign on his tent stating “D3 queue starts here” and “Please don’t jump the queue while I’m sleeping”.

The launch party begins at 10pm, with copies of the game on sale from 11pm – you’ll have to wait until midnight for the Diablo III servers to come online.

Diablo II development team members will also be in attendance at the HMV store to sign copies of the game.
