How to Fix Failed to Authenticate in Diablo 2 Resurrected Beta

To fix the Diablo 2 Resurrected Beta Failed to Authenticate error, the first thing that you need to know is that the issue is most likely not your fault. The blame is probably on the other side; specifically, you can bet there’s something wrong with the servers. Granted, there is a chance that you didn’t input the beta key properly, but I doubt that’ll be the case in an open beta. The most likely cause for this error is that there are too many people trying to log on causing the servers to buckle. Fairly standard for a beta of this sort. It could also be that the servers in your region aren’t up yet. So, basically, the most likely “fix” is to just be patient and keep trying.

Now, with all of that said, there is one more potential cause for the error – there might be an update pending that your platform hasn’t downloaded yet. This has been the case on Xbox during the closed beta, and it caused a lot of frustration and tension headaches. Luckily, if that’s the case with you, there’s an easy fix for the Diablo 2 Resurrected beta Failed to Authenticate error. All you need to do is either restart your console or Battle.net client, if you’re on PC. Once you do that, you should get a notification that there’s an update you need to download. Depending on your settings, it might start downloading automatically. Once the update is installed, try to run the game again.

So, that about does it for this article. We’ve got a number of other Diablo 2 Resurrected guides for you to check out, in case you’re having trouble with anything else, with more in the pipeline. Be sure to check them out
