Will Diablo 4 Progress Carry Over?

Diablo 4, the upcoming action RPG, has left many fans curious about how their progress will carry over from the beta to the full game. In this article, we’ll answer this question and provide detailed information on what you need to know about Diablo 4’s carryover process.

Direct Answer:
No, gameplay progression in the Diablo 4 beta and Server Slam will not carry over to the full game.

Understanding the Carryover Process
Before we dive into the details, let’s quickly understand the terms used by Blizzard:

• Playthrough: Your character’s progress, including levels, skills, and items, in a Diablo 4 playthrough (beta, open beta, or retail).
• Account: Your Battle.net account associated with your Diablo 4 game.
• World Tier: The difficulty setting of your world, adjusted based on your character’s power level.

Server Slam and Carryover Issues
During the Server Slam event, characters made a significant amount of progress in a short amount of time. Unfortunately, this raised concerns about whether this progress would carry over to the full game.

Unfortunately, all characters made during the Early Access and Open Beta weekends will be deleted after the beta has been completed. This is a standard procedure for games, ensuring a fresh start for the retail version and preventing exploits and imbalances.

Transferring Progress to Seasonal Content
Blizzard has clarified that certain elements will carry over from your playthrough to the season:

Map Progress and Altar of Lilith completion will be carried over to the new season.

Gameplay Adjustments
Level scaling will help keep your gameplay experience balanced. World Tier adjustments will also ensure you face opponents that match your character’s power level, making progression more engaging and challenging.

No Transferring Progress Between Console Platforms
Unfortunately, you need to buy the game for each console separately, meaning you won’t be able to transfer progress between PS4, PS5, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, or PC. Each version of the game is tied to its specific platform and account.

Conclusion

In summary:

• Beta progress will not carry over to the full game, including character levels, items, and skills.
• Map progress and Altar of Lilith completion will be carried over to the new season.
• No transferring progress between console platforms.
• Ensure a fresh start for the retail version to prevent exploits and ensure a balanced experience.

Be prepared for a new and exciting adventure when Diablo 4 launches.
