Diablo IV, the popular dungeon-romping sequel, will be available on Steam starting October 17, expanding its availability beyond Blizzard's Battle.net platform.

A major patch, 1.2.0, will also be released on the same day, bringing various quality of life improvements. Blizzard's decision to bring Diablo IV to Steam follows the migration of other high-profile games, such as Overwatch 2, to the popular gaming platform.

The film explores themes of artificial intelligence, acceptance, and the consequences of war. While attempting to be a tear-jerker, the movie fails to develop its characters and relationships, resulting in a story that feels artificial and lacking in emotional depth.

The strikes have seen solidarity from well-known actors, and while talks between the AMPTP and SAG-AFTRA have reached a stalemate, the negotiating committee is ready to return to the table.
