We're pleased to announce the Diablo III open beta weekend, which offers open access to all players with a valid Battle.net account! Beginning this Friday everyone is invited to log in and help us put the game and servers through their paces in this three day stress test as we march toward the game's release on May 15.

Blizzard has dropped a bit of a surprise for everyone who hasn't had a chance to dabble in the Diablo III beta just yet, by opening it up for anyone with a valid Battle.net account for the weekend beginning April 20 at 12:01 pm PDT, and finishing up on April 23 at 10:00 am PDT.You can start downloading the client by clicking here , and Blizzard also has a bit of a handy FAQ for you to rummage through right here . So what are you waiting for? Get into it!
