Blizzard does note that PCs that don't meet the minimal requirements, which include ones with standard hard drives, dual-core CPUs and integrated graphics chips could possibly run Diablo IV, but that the "game experience may be significantly diminished."

Blizzard has already announced the specific launch times for Diablo IV for both pre-order gamers and everyone else. It will be released for the PC, Microsoft's Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S consoles, and Sony's PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 consoles. You can pre-order the game on Amazon now.
