For Diablo 4 gamers playing on PC, some might be using (or are thinking to use) the TurboHUD4 (THUD4) software in order to make your dungeon raiding and spellcasting lives easier in Sanctuary. Well, if so, you might want to stop doing that, as Blizzard has issued a new announcement confirming that Diablo 4 TurboHUD4 use is something the studio does not condone.

In the announcement, Blizzard states that using THUD4 is game-modifying software, and can lead to “disciplinary action” and even permanent suspension.”

We are committed to keeping the world of Sanctuary a safe and fair place for all players, and our Game Security team constantly monitors for cheats and unauthorized modifications.

All Diablo IV players agree to the Blizzard EULA as a condition of playing the game. The Blizzard EULA explicitly prohibits cheating, bots, hacks, and any other unauthorized software which automates, modifies, or otherwise interferes with the game. This is important to players’ security as well as the game’s long-term integrity.

With that in mind, we want to make it clear that TurboHUD4, like any game-modifying software, is prohibited for use with Diablo IV. Players who install this kind of software will put their accounts at risk for disciplinary action, which can include permanent suspension.

Thank you to our players for helping to keep Sanctuary fair for all.

For those unaware, the TurboHUD4 is a customizable overlay tailor-made for Diablo 4. It helps keep the player track gold, experience and items, and also displays Elites and normal monsters with their affixes. This is a paid software tool that was released earlier this month.

In other Diablo 4 news, a new client patch was released today that included a few adjustments (though no balance changes).
