More than 40 minutes of gameplay from the Diablo 4 beta has apparently leaked, on the same day that 90-odd videos that purport to be early work-in-progress clips of Grand Theft Auto VI surfaced online, which has to be some kind of record.
We won't be hosting the content directly, but the leak looks to have originated over on Reddit and shows what appears to be gameplay from what is apparently a Friends and Family internal build. Considering the footage is covered with watermarks, we have to imagine it won't remain up for long, and that Blizzard likely knows who the culprit is. For what it's worth, it looks pretty solid at this early stage, and like a worthy successor to the excellent Diablo 3.
What's going on today? Is it some special phase of the moon? What will leak next? Gather around and speak in hushed whispers in the comments section below.

Hopefully they don’t leak Half-Life 3 next, or else we’ll have to wait another lifetime for it to come out…
They know exactly who this is that leaked it. Say bye to your account and your job and any job in the industry (if an employee leaked it), and hello to a legal battle you cannot hope to win.
Really not smart.
'We won't be hosting the content directly,..'
Did Liam get sent to the naughty step for hosting the GTAVI leaks directly? 😆👍
@riceNpea No, Khayl is just overly cautious in all things haha
@Khayl copyrighted material, I'd say you did the right thing mate. Watched a bit of it but it's so dark it's hard to gauge its quality on my phone.
Seeing as this is one of my most wanted right now games i'm not watching..anything diablo 4 related i'm avoiding like the plague..
I don’t like leaks or leakers and I think it’s best for the civilised gaming world to simply ignore them.
It can ruin games, demoralise developers and what do we really gain from it? Nothing.
We are just giving leaking scumbags the attention they crave.
Watched a snippet of the 5-minute leak. I am pretty sure Blizzard can use some info from the video to discern the leaker.
Leak all you want, there's only one situation possible where I buy a Diablo game... If it's moves to another studio not known for microtransactions.
@NeThZOR what gave it away? The watermarks all over the screen emblazoned with his ID serial number? Good sleuthing! 😆👌😉
My god, another leak? What is even happening in the industry? Is it just me or the amount of leaks has been increasing over the years? 40 minutes of footage is a lot (even if it seems like nothing when compared to what happened yesterday).
@riceNpea They weren't hosted directly. They're YouTube videos. I even included the same line in my article.
@LiamCroft potatoes, potahtoes 😆 only a joke anyway
I really hope that Microsoft buy whoever makes this game so it can be totally exclusive to Xbox gamers.
Imma leak Naughty Dog new ip just right about now. Hold on
Diablo 4 leak? Oh well,"Gamer" Phil Spencer is always banging on about "gaming for all" & "reducing barriers to gaming",guess he'll get his wish!😅😋
Is this coming to ps5? For some reason I thought it was Xbox exclusive after ms bought blizzard.
What a shame you are not hosting something finally interresting...
Ok. It is on youtube, but... that open world... it doesn't fit Diablo. Where is randomness that guarantees replayability? D3 was bad because of more than half areas were set (at least borders) but this looks even more set. It is more like Titan Quest than Diablo.
