Diablo 4 freeze on startup

When I first tried to play during the early access, I had to launch three times to get in, now I can’t even get past the blizzard splash screen. The splash screen plays for 1-3 seconds then freezes audio continues for 1-5 seconds after that then stops. I’ve left the game running for 20 minutes like that, but it never does anything, if I click on the screen, it goes unresponsive and crashes. I know that it’s not due to system requirements because I have an i7-13700kf, 32gb of ddr5 and an AMD 6750xt. Diablo 4 is installed on an m.2 drive.

Hey there Norzpax,

If your m.2 drive is connected via NVMe, your issues appears to be related to a problem we’re investigating:

If unrelated, please post in the appropriate (Diablo IV) forum for assistance.
