The long awaited Diablo III beta is underway at last and invitations for the same are being doled out currently to Battle.net account holders who had earlier registered for the beta. Further access codes will be granted to interested gamers through promotions and giveaways. Blizzard has announced on the game’s website that participating players are welcome to provide feedback or report bugs.
Earlier, the Diablo III beta was open only to Blizzard employees and their families, but now any Battle.net account holder can win a chance to partake in it. Other fans, who don’t receive the codes, have been asked to ‘stay tuned’ for more information on the website about the giveaways. Blizzard has also made gamers aware that phishing attempts may take place with fake invites being sent to them.
“We’d like to remind those looking forward to an invite to be wary of phishing attempts. If you believe you’ve received an invite to the Diablo III beta test, it’s best to refrain from clicking on any links in the email, and instead log in to your Battle.net account to see if a Diablo III beta game account was granted. Or, if you were sent a key, attempt to add it manually by going to the Add or Upgrade a Game section of the Battle.net account management page,” read a post on the website.
Only recently, the developer announced that the auction house feature in this game would make use of PayPal to carry out transactions. It shall also be added as a payment option on Battle.net for many regions.
With the Diablo III beta finally on track, this might a nice time for Blizzard to confirm release date for the title which has been kept concealed since a long time.
