This is thanks to Diablo IV being hooked into Blizzard's online system, so if you don't already have an account, you'll want to set one up now to be ready to play as soon as you start the game. These PC and console realms won't be gated off for Diablo IV, as you'll be able to group up with players regardless of the platform that they're playing on.

You can play with anyone across PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One via cross-play.Īhead of its debut on multiple platforms, you can read up on how cross-play works, what co-op options will be available, and how cross-progression will function. Diablo 4 is out very soon, and even earlier for those with the special editions preordered. While the recent Sony press conference has revealed the PS4 as more PC-like, we must also remember that-like Vaeflare said above- Diablo 3 was announced with a few changes on the PS4 version, including direct control over their avatar's actions.įor all of you hanging onto the edge of your seat for any word on this, perhaps, one day, we will see a full marriage between console and PC.All hell is about to break loose when Diablo 4 launches, and you don't need to face the demonic horde on your own. Similarly, since Diablo III for console was designed with a controller in mind, the PlayStation version of Diablo III will not support USB mice or keyboards. As a result, the characters on your account and PlayStation account will also remain separate. In terms of allowing an analog controller hookup for the PC, we don’t have any plans for that kind of support right now. While we think cross-platform play would be awesome, there are currently no plans to allow connectivity between PlayStation Network and (this is pretty standard for most games that have PC and console support).
