Battle.net is required to play Diablo IV on PC Game Pass

This Thursday, Microsoft will be fulfilling one of its key promises from when it acquired Activision-Blizzard by bringing Diablo IV to Game Pass. It looks like it'll have an extra, unexpected wrinkle, however: PC Game Pass players will be required to install Activision-Blizzard's installer, Battle.net. They'll also be required to have a Battle.net account and connect it to their Microsoft account before they can play.

Ahead of the Thursday release, Microsoft released a short tutorial online to help guide users through the process, complete with a Diablo IV-style graphic that has every step explained in great detail.

While it's perhaps not surprising that the battle.net launcher is still needed for Activision-Blizzard games, it is still a little frustrating. Now that Microsoft and Activision-Blizzard are one company, it seems even more cumbersome to need two separate accounts and two separate launchers to access their games.
