An Xbox Series X Diablo 4 Edition console has seemingly leaked ahead of an official announcement.
According to reliable leaker billbil-kun, the special edition console will launch alongside Blizzard’s game on June 6, 2023.
The system will reportedly be priced at $559.99, which is $60 more than the standard Xbox Series X costs.
Update
Microsoft has officially announced an Xbox Series X Diablo 4 console bundle.
Diablo 4 guides:
Diablo 4 battle pass | Murmuring Obols | Crushed Beast Bones | Diablo 4 Best Druid Builds | Diablo 4 Best Barbarian Builds
This suggests it could come with a copy of Diablo 4, although the dataminer said the listing for the console they uncovered doesn’t mention it being a bundle.
Diablo 4 will also be released for Xbox One, PS5, PS4 and PC on June 6.
The game, which won’t be playable offline, features cross-play and cross-progression for all platforms. It also supports couch-co-op on consoles.
Diablo franchise boss Rod Fergusson recently said that Diablo 4 isn’t planned for Xbox Game Pass, despite Microsoft’s proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard seemingly edging closer to completion.
A Diablo 4 open beta was held last weekend, following an early access testing period a week earlier.
In an interview following the earlier test’s “rocky start”, Fergusson stressed that the Diablo 4 beta wasn’t a demo.
“The word beta nowadays has kind of been misconstrued, where people start calling things beta that’s [actually] a marketing beta, and it’s just another term for a demo,” he told NME.
“That’s not our case at all. Our beta is actually us testing our technology – especially on the server side.”
