Diablo 4 Download File Size

Having a pre-load for Diablo 4 is very useful, as the game is quite big. The full download has a file size of around 75-82 GB depending on your platform. Yikes. However, there's a way to trim some of the fat on that chunky download. Read more about that here:

And that's it. Pre-order Diablo 4 before June 6 and start your pre-load on May 30. If you want to get Early Access and start grinding on June 2, you have to pre-order the Digital Deluxe or Ultimate Edition.

If you aren't sure if Diablo 4 is the right game for you, watch the video below and keep an eye out for our Diablo 4 review that will drop on May 30.
