The launch of Diablo IV on PC Game Pass (and also on Xbox Game Pass) will be a real bomb. The Blizzard game won’t be arriving alone, though it’s undoubtedly the most important title coming to Microsoft’s gaming service for PC this spring. very attractive for the price and potentially even better with an “Ultimate” version that connects to consoles in case you have an Xbox.

In addition to its arrival on PC Game Pass, a patch with ray tracing support (and other visual improvements) has just been released, the first test sphere will arrive shortly, and the fourth season in May promises to be the game’s biggest refresh yet. since its launch. In my opinion, with ups and downs, a recommended RPG. And even more if it’s free…
