It's important for Blizzard to do this because Lilith is a new antagonist – granted, she has been present in the previous games and has been mentioned multiple times, but it's the first time for the players to actually encounter Lilith. It sets the tone for the rest of the game, and Lilith's presence all throughout, at least within the scope of the beta, really sells her importance to the players. It clearly communicates what brought about the events of the game, and what the stakes are for our adventurers. The game opens with the memorable cinematic cutscene that heralded the arrival of Diablo IV. Read on for our Diablo 4 Open Beta First Impressions, and see if it's worth it for you to pre-purchase the game for an early taste of Sanctuary's war for salvation. While the experience so far is just limited, it gives players a good sample of what Diablo 4 is going to be.

Diablo 4 Open Beta opened on March 17 for players who pre-purchased either the Deluxe or the Ultimate Edition, or for those who purchased a Double Down from KFC.
