Blizzard Entertainment has just announced that players can now preload the highly anticipated ‘Server Slam‘ Beta for Diablo 4. This will allow all participants to download the necessary game data before the beta starts on Friday, May 12. This step will save precious minutes when the servers go live, allowing players to dive straight into the action.
The Beta, named for its objective to stress test the game’s servers, is an opportunity for fans to preview the game before its full release next month. Participants can expect some queuing and possible server errors during the beta period. These potential issues are part of the purpose of the beta test, helping the developers identify and rectify any server capacity concerns ahead of the full launch.
Remember that this is a stress test, so players may experience queuing and server errors when accessing the beta. This test aims to ensure the game’s online connectivity can handle the load, so these issues are to be expected.
