Diablo 4 Pre-Orders Begin on Steam Ahead of Valve Store Launch
The long-anticipated launch of the highly-anticipated role-playing game Diablo 4 is fast approaching, and eager fans can now begin to pre-order the game on Steam ahead of its launch on April 2nd.

The Steam pre-order has been priced at £49.99 (or regional equivalent) for the Standard Edition and £59.99 (or regional equivalent) for the Digital Deluxe Edition. Those who pre-order the Digital Deluxe Edition will gain access to digital rewards, such as a Petrifying Gaze pets, a portrait frame, a few of the of the game’s wings, as well as a few other cosmetic items. Furthermore, pre-orders on the platform also come with the additional benefit of access to the game’s recent closed beta.
Once the Steam pre-orders come to an end, the Digital Deluxe Edition of Diablo 4 will be available to purchase on the official Valve Store on April 2nd. This edition of the game will include exclusive in-game content such as a World of Warcraft-inspired pet, a Trag’Oul Winged Protector pet, and a pair of cosmetic wings that can be used in-game.
