While it's fun to give yourself Diablo wrist and run around the Diablo 4 beta's fairly substantial map, you could always discover some waypoints and fast travel. There are several waypoints to discover in Diablo 4, usually nestled within a city or village, and they'll let you fast travel to these destinations. You can also fast travel from anywhere on the map, even from dungeons, which is handy if your inventory is full after gathering all that sweet loot.

In this guide, I'll show you where to find the waypoints and how to fast travel from anywhere on the map.

Diablo 4 waypoints 

There are five regions in Diablo 4, each with at least half a dozen waypoints. To find them, look for the icon on the map that looks like a triangle inside a circle, except for the one in each region that looks like a little building as it's the capital.

To unlock a waypoint, interact with it and it'll then glow blue. Once active, you can fast travel within the city or village you're in, to other waypoints and from the wilderness. There are also specific PvP areas called the Fields of Hatred, which I've listed below, as the location of some Strongholds.

How to fast travel 

To fast travel, you can either open up your map and select a waypoint, or you can open up a portal to the capital. This is particularly useful if you are in a dungeon as you can quickly stash your stuff—or sell or salvage it—then go back through the portal to where you left off.

To open a portal, press T (or down on the D-pad) and you'll appear at the capital with a portal opened behind you.

Guides Editor

The first three games Lauren played on PC were Star Wars: X-Wing, Zoo Tycoon and Barbie Fashion Designer, which explains her love of all things space, strategy and aesthetically pleasing. Lauren recently took over as PC Gamer's Guides Editor after three years of writing many dozens of Destiny 2 guides at VG247, as well as casually trying to shoehorn in The Witcher 3 articles wherever possible. When she's not trying to force everyone to play as a Warlock in Destiny 2, Lauren is either mastering her SEO abilities to help smash the competition, or patting one of her red sons.
