In today’s most interesting news, the folks at Blizzard have partnered with KFC for a DIABLO IV promotion where you can get Early Access beta through purchasing a now-resurrected Double Down sandwich. Even though we had heard rumors of this, Blizzard finally confirmed it today. Check out all the details from the press release below. Eat up peeps, as the March 17th Early Access beta is coming quickly! This promotion started today, March 9th and ends March 18th.

Blizzard Entertainment is collaborating with restaurant chain Kentucky Fried Chicken® to offer fans early beta access Diablo® IV, the next generation installment in the genre-defining series. One of the most anticipated games of the year, the title will be released on June 6, 2023. Starting today through March 18th, customers who order KFC’s iconic Double Down, which made its triumphant return following a 10-year hiatus to KFC U.S. menus nationwide March 6, or any eligible sandwich at KFC.com or via the KFC App, will receive a code for Early Beta Access* to Diablo IV. FEED YOUR NEED Eligible purchases include KFC’s iconic Double Down Sandwich (a bun-less sandwich with two of KFC’s Extra Crispy™, 100 percent white meat filets, two slices of cheese, and two pieces of crispy, hickory-smoked bacon, with either the Colonel’s Mayo or spicy sauce) and the Kentucky Fried Chicken Sandwich (an all-white meat, double-breaded, Extra Crispy™ chicken breast filet, freshly toasted buttery brioche bun, thick, crispy pickles, and the Colonel's real mayo or spicy sauce). Both the Double Down and Kentucky Fried Chicken Sandwich are available in both classic and spicy versions, perfect for Diablo IV fans who love the heat. After placing their order at KFC.com or on the KFC App, fans can avoid waiting in line, head to their local KFC, park in a dedicated VIP parking spot, and go inside where their order will be hot, ready, and waiting on KFC's Quick Pick-Up shelf. Mobile ordering available at participating locations. The game invites players to join the fight to save the dark and gothic world of Sanctuary, where demonic hordes battle for the souls of humanity. With a choice of five different hero classes to choose from, there’s a plethora of paths to take in order to go up against the ultimate evil: the Mother of Hatred, Lilith. Open Beta will start on March 24 (all five hero classes available), and those who pre-order get early access starting March 17 (only three hero classes available).
