Diablo 4 has a £90 Ultimate Edition which offers up to four days early access to the game, and includes an “accelerated” seasonal battle pass unlock with the ability to skip 20 tiers.
The Deluxe Edition is one of three now available to pre-order via Blizzard’s Battle.net, as well as the slightly cheaper £80 Digital Deluxe Edition, and the £60 Standard Edition.
All pre-purchases get you access to the game and its open beta, plus a handful of extra cosmetics. The two pricier versions add extra cosmetic options and the game’s seasonal battle pass, with the Ultimate Edition upgrading that latter reward into its “accelerated” version.
Word of these inclusions has received a mixed response from the Diablo community so far, and comes in the wake of monetisation concerns surrounding Blizzard’s free-to-play Diablo Immortal and Overwatch 2.
Diablo 4, of course, is a premium game – though it will still employ a season pass model on top. For more detail on how this will work, our Bertie has been speaking to Blizzard on what Diablo 4’s seasonal model will entail.
