If you're still playing, check out our interactive Diablo 4 map to start tracking your progress as you play. Diablo 4 is Blizzard’s fastest-selling game of all time, and has fuelled record revenue and profits for the company. Just yesterday, Blizzard promised a fix for a menu issue that is causing some players to accidentally activate the the premium battle pass.ĭespite these various issues, Diablo 4 enjoyed an enormous launch that saw over 10 million people play in June.
