How to earn Diablo 4 Twitch drops

D4 Twitch drops are here to celebrate the release of Blizzard's devilishly good sequel, with unique items to kit out your character and even an exclusive mount.

How do I earn the Diablo 4 Twitch drops? Twitch drops reward you for watching your favorite streamers with cool in-game items or currency, and Blizzard is giving you the chance to earn some exclusive customization items for your character. These rewards operate on a rotational basis, so we’ve created a timetable to help you decide when you should tune in.

Most of the Diablo 4 Twitch drops are class-specific transmog items, but whichever of the Diablo 4 classes you choose, Blizzard has you covered. You can also grab a Diablo 4 mount, which presents a welcome alternative to fast travel. We gave the game a remarkable score in our Diablo 4 review, but if you’re still not sold, perhaps watching a few hours on stream could help you decide whether to dive into Sanctuary? If you’ve already taken the plunge, then you’re going to want these Diablo 4 rewards, so take a look below at what’s on offer with these Twitch drops, including how to get the Primal Instinct mount.

When are the Diablo 4 Twitch drops?

The Diablo 4 Twitch drops are available from Monday, June 5 onwards, with up to two unique drops available for the following weeks:

You need to watch three hours each week for the first reward, and a further three hours for a total of six to earn the second. Just keep in mind that you must claim the first reward before your progress toward the second drop will be counted.

How to get the Diablo 4 Primal Instinct mount

Get the Diablo 4 Primal Instinct mount by gifting two Twitch subscriptions of any tier to any eligible Diablo 4 streamer between June 5 and July 2. You can find a list of all eligible Twitch streamers here. Diablo community manager Adam ‘PezRadar’ Fletcher says that this offer was extended to all creators who streamed Diablo 2 Resurrected, Diablo 3, Diablo Immortal, or the Diablo 4 beta or server slam tests over the last six months.

If you should have been eligible but didn’t receive an invite, you may want to check your Twitch notification settings – Fletcher explains that anyone with marketing communications disabled may not have correctly received the notifications. He suggests turning them on if you’re interested in potential future promotions so as not to miss out.
