In terms of multiplayer, up to eight people can play together in one game. The early access and open beta tests support cross-progression, but for the early access beta specifically, you will need to have pre-ordered Resurrected or the Prime Evil Collection on each platform. That said, everyone who pre-orders on Switch gets the Heritage of Arreat transmog at launch. Blizzard said in a blog post, "We are working closely with our platform partners to ensure a successful launch of Diablo II: Resurrected on all platforms," but it didn't say why Switch is being left out. The Diablo II: Resurrected early access and open betas are not available on Switch.

PlayStation Plus is not required for early access or the open beta, but you will need a membership to use multiplayer features at launch. Xbox Live Gold is required for the early access beta but not the open beta, but it will be required at launch. The beta features the chance to see what the game has to offer, and with a release date in just a few months, it should be pretty close to the final product. Of note, Blizzard's blog and social media posts have different end dates for the Diablo II: Resurrected early access and beta periods, with the official blog post saying the testing periods will end a day later.

The open beta is free and open to everyone, regardless of preorder status. The Resurrected open beta runs August 20-23. Blizzard ran through all the details in a blog post, and we've rounded up the key information below. Blizzard Entertainment is currently running an open beta test for Diablo II: Resurrected, which follows an earlier invite-only test.
