Is Diablo 4 coming to Xbox Game Pass?

Want to try Diablo 4 but can’t justify spending the pennies on it? An Xbox Game Pass release is something that helps many gamers try games before they consider buying. But is it coming to Microsoft’s subscription service?

The long-awaited Diablo 4 came out in June to a large amount of praise, with the latest installment in the popular franchise delivering more perilous dungeons, in-depth class customization, and much loot for players to find.

With the game releasing on both PC and Xbox Series X/S, many fans will be wondering if Diablo 4 will be coming to the ever-expanding Xbox Games Pass library at launch or later down the line.

Here’s everything you need to know about whether or not Diablo 4 will be available on the subscription service.

Is Diablo 4 coming to Xbox Game Pass?

CEO of Microsoft Gaming, Phil Spencer, previously confirmed that a number of core Activision Blizzard titles will make their way to Game Pass. “We intend to make Activision Blizzard’s much-loved library of games – including Overwatch, Diablo, and Call of Duty – available in Game Pass and to grow those gaming communities,” said the CEO.

However, Rod Fergusson, SVP and GM of the Diablo brand at Blizzard Entertainment confirmed that Diablo 4 currently isn’t coming to Xbox Game Pass. According to the Diablo lead, Blizzard currently has “no plans” for a Game Pass release.

Ferguson noted in a recent Twitter post, telling fans the following: “We’ve been getting some questions about D4 on Game Pass and I want to let you know we have no plans for that.”

It's awesome seeing the excitement around the Diablo IV Beta, and our Wolf Pack puppy! We’ve been getting some questions about D4 on Game Pass and I want to let you know we have no plans for that. See you in Sanctuary during the Beta Early Access weekend starting on March 17!
