This past weekend was the pre-order early access weekend for Diablo IV. With so much hype around the game I can guarantee that anyone who had early access most definitely used it.
Everyone except for me.
I was lucky enough to have early access this weekend, but Lillith must’ve been threatened by the thought of me entering the world of Sanctuary because I was plagued by an inevitable launch error.
Error code 315306 “Unable to find valid license”, has been affecting users since the beta phase, but it’s been harder to fix for those on consoles, specifically the PS5. Blizzard has said that they are working on the issues but have yet to push a fix out.
We're still looking into reports of folks getting this error. The Diablo Community Manager asked players to submit ticket with their PSN ID: https://t.co/8Dux9gAtaW

Put "license error – 315306" in the description. ^JH— Blizzard CS – The Americas (@BlizzardCS) June 4, 2023
A few quick fixes have popped out online, including restoring your game licenses on the console or purchasing anything from the PlayStation store. This includes anything from your PS Plus subscription, a free game such as Trackmania or Fall Guys, or even purchasing a small amount of Diablo IV in-game currency. Unfortunately for me, none of these fixes have worked.
Blizzard claims that the issue comes in with those of us sharing our game library, and let’s be honest, with every single game costing around the same as a vital organ, who isn’t sharing the libraries and going halvies with friends?
Barney the Dinosaur told me sharing is caring, and I’d much rather listen to Barney while staring at the title screen of Diablo IV for the next 24 hours than attempt a race at becoming one of the first to reach level 100 anyway.
How did it go for those of you who were lucky enough to get some hellish action this weekend? And why are 94% of you guys playing rogue?
