Diablo III beta participants I've got some bittersweet news for you: the beta servers will be going offline on May 1st. The bittersweet part comes in that the game releases two weeks after that so at least they're going offline for a reason. Of course news comes in threes so the last bit of news that will be disappointing is that all beta accounts and character information will unfortunately be reset.

Participation on the forums at that point will be limited to people who pre-purchased the game or have an active Starcraft II or World of Warcraft license tied to their battle.net account.
