Those looking to play the game will be able to do so on a variety of gaming platforms. This includes the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and the PC. Unfortunately, Nintendo players may have to wait a bit longer as the Switch has been left out of the list of compatible systems. Based on the release strategy of Diablo 3, however, it may eventually make its way to the beloved handheld console at some point.
The game’s release on a wide variety of platforms is also made better by the fact that Diablo 4 will also support crossplay. With this in mind, you won’t have to worry about getting the game on the same system as your friends as you’ll be able to join each other no matter what console you’re playing on.
