Curious if you can transfer your characters from Diablo 3 to Diablo 4? The latest entry brings many of the character types from the previous game forward, but many things have also changed. See if you can carry on playing with your old character below.

Can you transfer characters from Diablo 3 to Diablo 4?

Several characters from Diablo 3 fighting demons

While it has not been strictly ruled out, the fact that it also has not been confirmed seems like a clear indication that this will not be a feature in Diablo 4. No game in the series so far has had a feature like this, and it is unlikely to begin now.

The point of a new game is to start fresh, and players will need to create new characters when they start their journey in Diablo 4.

Can you transfer cosmetic items from Diablo 3 to Diablo 4?

This seems more likely to be a possibility, but still, we cannot confirm. It is highly unlikely that cosmetic items you earned in Diablo 3 will carry over to Diablo 4. If any items do make the jump across, you will likely see some mention of it in Diablo 3.

More likely, is the possibility of items being awarded to you in Diablo 4 for having played Diablo 3 previously on the same account. Again, no confirmation one way or another, so your best bet is to go into Diablo 4 planning to start fresh.
