Diablo IV joined Xbox Game Pass on March 28

Join Game Pass on March 28 to dive into Diablo IV, the first Activision Blizzard title to hit the platform, promising fresh gameplay.

You’re in for a treat come March 28, as Diablo IV, the latest hit from the powerhouse Activision Blizzard, is set to grace the Xbox Game Pass. This marks a significant milestone as it’s the first title from Activision Blizzard to be available on the platform following Microsoft’s acquisition of the gaming giant. The anticipation has been building, especially after Microsoft Gaming’s CEO, Phil Spencer, hinted last October, post-acquisition, that significant titles like Call of Duty wouldn’t join the Game Pass roster until 2024. Diablo IV’s arrival is a delightful surprise, beating earlier predictions and setting the stage for what’s next.

Keeping the game fresh and accessible

Last year’s launch of Diablo IV was met with widespread acclaim, and rightly so (you can read our review to get the full scoop). Its developers have kept the momentum going with seasonal updates, the latest being the Season of the Construct, ensuring the game remains engaging for its dedicated followers. By bringing Diablo IV into the Game Pass fold, an additional 34 million subscribers now have the game at their fingertips, promising to significantly broaden its already substantial fan base.

Future promises and cross-platform plans

But there’s more on the horizon. Microsoft’s recent announcement also mentioned bringing four unnamed exclusive titles to other major platforms, including the PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch. This strategic move underscores Microsoft’s commitment to Game Pass’s value, reassuring Xbox enthusiasts about the platform’s evolving library. The inclusion of Diablo IV is just the beginning, with more Activision Blizzard treasures expected to join the Game Pass collection, signalling an exciting phase of expansion for the service.
