Diablo IV Update 1.04 Patch Notes: Important Fixes Ahead of Open Beta Launch

Blizzard Entertainment has released a small patch for Diablo IV updating the game to version 1.04 ahead of the launch of the open beta test.

One of the notable fixes in the update is the spawn timer of Ashava, a boss character in the game. Previously, players were experiencing issues with the character’s spawn timer, but with the update, the issue has been resolved, and Ashava will now spawn at the correct times on Saturday, March 25th, and Sunday, March 26th.

Another significant improvement in the update is the fix for the queue timer, which was not displaying correctly for players. With the latest update, the timer should now be visible, resulting in better queue times and a smoother gaming experience.

Players were also facing an issue during the “In Her Wake” quest, which has now been resolved. Additionally, the update has fixed the issue where players with 16GB of RAM were unable to select High Texture Settings.

In addition to the fixes mentioned above, the update has also fixed several miscellaneous crash-related issues, resulting in a more stable game experience for players.

For console players, the update has fixed an issue where the second player in couch co-op could not join the game during the prologue.
