There is a lot to be excited about because Lilith will be returning to Sanctuary on June 6, 2023, which is the same day that Diablo 4 will be released. As the release date draws ever nearer, we take a look at some key features of the upcoming installment of the venerable action role-playing game franchise. One of these aspects that potential Nephalem might be interested in learning more about is the regional servers for Diablo 4, and more importantly, whether or not the game will be locked to a specific region. This guide will explain whether or not Diablo 4 will have region locks and whether or not it will be a free-for-all with no region locks. If it is the latter, then players from all over the world, including Europe and North America, will be able to play together.

Is there a Locked Region for Diablo 4?
In contrast to its forerunners, Diablo 4 will NOT have any region-locking restrictions and will provide full support for cross-play between all of the platforms the game is available on. In everyday language, what exactly does that entail?

Basically, a gamer from North America who plays Diablo 4 or Xbox One will be able to join a party with a gamer from Asia who plays PS5, as well as a gamer from the United Kingdom who plays on a computer.

This indicates that you are able to trade with other players from different regions, though there are some restrictions regarding Diablo 4 trading in place.

As of the time of this writing, we are unable to predict how the latency of this situation will play out. We have a hunch that the actual game instance will take place on a North American server if a player from North America invites a friend who is located in Europe to a party in the game.

Diablo 4 Dedicated Servers in Your Region?
There will, for all intents and purposes, still be separate Diablo 4 servers located in each of the different regions. Naturally, this is done to reduce latency, and as a result, technically speaking, there should be regional servers available in Diablo 4.

You, on the other hand, will not be required to switch servers or characters. The excellent news is that there is no regional locking, which comes into play at this point. To put it more simply, players from all over the world will be able to play together on all platforms. With regard to Diablo 4 regional servers and specific options, however, we have not yet found any official information.

How Long Does Each Season of Diablo 4 Last?
Let's get right down to business and state the obvious: the seasons of Diablo 4 will be significantly longer than those of Diablo Immortal, and it is intended that they will have a significantly more precise schedule than those of Diablo 3 and Diablo 2 Resurrected.

It is estimated that the season will last for a total of three (3) months in Diablo 4. It has been officially confirmed by Blizzard that players will experience up to four seasons per year. Seasons in Diablo 4 will shake up the meta, release a new Battle Pass filled with goodies, add new content, a new questline, have a specific theme, and add a lot more. Seasons will also add new content.

When will the first season of Diablo 4 be available to play? Speculation Regarding the Countdown
The PC, Xbox, and PlayStation console versions of Diablo 4 are scheduled to be released on June 6, 2023; however, those who have pre-ordered a special edition that includes Early Access will receive it two days earlier, on June 2. As was mentioned by the developer, the first season of Diablo 4 is scheduled to begin in a few weeks after the game is made available to the public.

If we had to make an educated guess, we would say that it will take place on either the 27th of June or the 4th of July 2023, with the latter date indicating that it will take place one month after the release of the game. You can find a countdown clock that is currently ticking down to the date of July 4, 2023, which will be updated once additional information is made available to the public.
