Diablo 4 Console Issues: PS4, PS5, Xbox One & Xbox Series X/S
Diablo 4 has some issues specifically for consoles and some for all platforms. The list below, as shared by Community Manager PezRadar, notes both, including login queue troubles, an issue for console players in Hardcore mode specifically, and more. Check them out.
- If the player triggers the Lorath introduction cutscene while the world is in daylight, the player’s and Lorath’s shadows will shimmer in-game until the Prologue is complete. This issue will not occur if the player skips the cutscene.
- In-game voice chat may not function correctly for all players.
- Performance optimizations are still in progress. Players may encounter some performance issues, particularly on older hardware across different platforms.
- The ‘Play’ tab at the top of Character Selection is clickable but currently does not lead to another menu in the beta.
- Users may experience a queue while logging into Diablo IV during Early Access Beta Weekend. Please note that the countdown may finish and go beyond the duration listed on the queue timer. Do NOT leave the queue as this will restart the queue. We will have more accurate timers in place for Open Beta Weekend.
- During the beta players will be able to select from a wide variety of work-in-progress “Text Language” options beyond English. English will be the only available option for “Spoken Language” during the beta, but other languages will be available at launch.
- Player 2 may experience issues joining games with a pre-existing hero while playing couch co-op during the Prologue.
- Players playing Hardcore in local couch co-op on console may not be able to return to character select until both players die. This will be addressed at launch.
- Some console users may be experiencing issues getting through queues. We are actively looking to correct this issue this weekend.
It is important to note that more issues might appear during Diablo 4's launch for console gamers. However, it is good to see Blizzard acknowledging these issues, and we hope to see them resolved soon.
So there you have all the known issues for Diablo 4 on consoles, including PlayStation and Xbox. We will endeavor to update this article once more information becomes available or new issues are found.
