The 12-year wait for Diablo III is finally over. Diablo 3 has launched across the world with major launch parties occurring in cities around the world. You may expect some of your co-workers to show up to work a bit tired this morning.

This is very exciting news for anyone that wants to try Diablo 3 before the official release. Blizzard is hosting a Diablo III open beta weekend to test their server capacity. As long as you have a valid Battle.net account you can enjoy Diablo 3 open beta from Friday, April 20 at 12:01 p.m. PDT (noon), until Monday, April 23 at 10:00 a.m. PDT.

If you do not have a valid Battle.net account, don't worry, you can just create one for free at http://www.battle.net

Although you will be able to try all 5 classes each one is going to be limited to level 13. Still this is an excellent way to try the new game before dropping $60.

You can download Diablo III client right now at:
