How to buy Diablo 4 in Russia is a sore subject in today's realities, but there is a way out. Below we tell you how easy it is to buy the continuation of the legendary series of games.
Participation in beta testing Diablo 4, which will run from 19:00 Moscow time 17 to 22:00 March 20 for those who pre-ordered the game, and from 24 to 26 March for everyone (not available to players from Russia).
But there are several ways to get around the restrictions. We talk about them in this article.
How to play the Diablo 4 beta on PC
One of the easiest ways to participate in testing is to buy Diablo 4 on specialized marketplaces. For example, Plati.market
Depending on the seller and the desired edition, playing Diablo 4 costs from ~ 1000 rubles (for access only to the beta test) up to ~9000 for the Ultimate version of the game.
Be sure to read reviews and look at the number of sales. Do not be fooled by prices below the market, especially from sellers with a small number of reviews. Beware of scammers.
Some sellers sell a ready-made account, some will register an account in the desired region using your data, and the other part offers to buy a game gift (that is, a gift of the game to your Battle.net account). Be sure to read the description of each lot.
In case you have to register a new account, you can register an account in Kazakhstan (in this country, mobile numbers start with +7, as in Russia - this will allow you to verify your account). But you must understand that it will not be possible to pay for a Kazakh account with a Russian bank card (but you can get the game from the seller).
Please note that according to Blizzard rules, after adding the game as a friend, it will be possible to gift only after three days (72 hours).
Another way is to register a new account yourself or change the region of the current one and pay for Diablo 4 with a bank card of the corresponding region or in another way (for example, with a gift card).
How to change the region of your Battle.net account
Let's say right away that you can use the method only if you really changed the country of residence (we condemn the falsification of information to provide Blizzard support).
You can change the country/region of your Battle.net account using the Change Country feature. If this feature fails, you will need to write to support with a photo of a utility bill with your name and address for manual verification by support.
Blizzard Support may take longer to respond than usual due to high workload at this time. You can read more about the function at the official website.
