The MeinMMO editorial team participated in the beta of Diablo 4. Here is the review of Leya Jankowski, Benedikt Schlotmann, and Benedict Grothaus:
During the beta, pre-orders were able to enjoy an early start and play a weekend before everyone else. However, not all classes were playable at that time – the partially overpowered necromancer and the too weak druid for many players were only available in the second beta weekend, which everyone could participate in.
That is different with the full release. All players who start the action RPG on June 2 or 6 can access all five classes from the beginning. In addition to the hunter, barbarian, and wizard, the druid and necromancer are also immediately playable.
