Attention all Diablo fans! Are you eagerly awaiting the launch of Diablo 4? Well, we have some news that might make you want to sit down for a moment. The big question on everyone’s mind is, will you need PS Plus to play Diablo 4? The answer is yes, but there’s more to it than that. Keep reading to find out everything you need to know about playing Diablo 4 on PlayStation.
Diablo 4: Why Do You Need PS Plus?
If you were hoping to play Diablo 4 offline, unfortunately, you’re out of luck. The game requires an always active internet connection to play, both on PC and consoles. This means that players with poor connections or those who prefer to play offline will be affected by this decision. It’s worth noting that this is a departure from previous games in the series, and some players may be disappointed by this change.
How Many People Can Play Online Together in Diablo 4?
Based on the given information, the Diablo 4 Beta supports co-op play with friends. There are two co-op modes available, a 4-player online co-op mode and a 2-player split-screen couch co-op mode. However, all players must be subscribed to PS Plus to play together.
How To Play the Diablo 4 Beta Couch Co-Op
If you want to play the Diablo 4 Beta in couch co-op mode with a friend, there are a few requirements that you need to meet. Here’s what you need to do:
- For the early access weekend (March 17-19), one player needs to pre-order any edition of Diablo 4, and the second player just needs to sign in on a separate controller. Both players must link their Battle.net and console accounts.
- For the open beta weekend (March 24-27), neither player needs to pre-order Diablo 4, but both players must have their Battle.net and console accounts linked.
So, make sure you and your friend have linked your accounts and meet the other requirements depending on the weekend you’re playing during. Then you’ll be able to dive into the Diablo 4 Beta and experience all the demon-slaying action together in couch co-op mode!
How To Play Diablo 4 Beta Online Co-Op
If you want to join the Diablo 4 Beta Online Co-Op, there are a few things you need to know. Firstly, during the Early Access weekend, you and your group must have pre-ordered any edition of the game. However, during the Open Beta period, no purchase is necessary. Once you and up to three other players meet the respective requirements for the Beta period, simply create a party with your group and jump into the game. It’s that simple!
In conclusion, the Diablo 4 Beta offers exciting opportunities for players to team up with friends and experience the game together. While PS Plus is required for online play, those without the subscription can still enjoy the game’s single-player mode. If you do have PS Plus, you can take advantage of the 4-player online co-op mode or the 2-player split-screen couch co-op mode. So, gather your friends, link your accounts, and dive into the world of Diablo 4.
