Diablo 4 ‘Unable to Find a Valid License’ Error Code 315306

As the message suggests, Diablo 4’s Error Code 315306 occurs when the game’s license cannot be correctly retrieved and accepted. It means that players who have legitimately purchased the game and should have a valid license for it cannot play.

It has been most commonly reported in North America and on PlayStation consoles, but players across the world and on other platforms have also reported experiencing the problem.

As of 1 PM ET on Oct. 17, this issue is because of problems with Season of Blood. Something went wrong when they tried to launch it within the game, and it has been delayed. However, that hasn’t really meant good things for the server connections, and many error codes (like 34202) are also popping up.

Potential Fixes and Solutions

Thankfully, there are a few things affected players can do if they’re struggling with the Error Code 315306 and the ‘Unable to Find a Valid License’ message.

Firstly, players can try restoring their Game Library’s licenses. To do so is very simple on PlayStation. Go to Settings, then Users and Accounts. Select Other and then Restore Licenses.

Secondly, players should ensure their Diablo 4 purchase has gone through correctly and is fully downloaded and updated. We do not recommend uninstalling the game and reinstalling it – this may result in players being asked to repurchase the game.

Thirdly, players can try downloading a free game from their console’s store. This will update your console’s game library, revalidate licenses, and has been reported as allowing players to bypass the 315306 Error Code and ‘Unable to Find a Valid License’ message.

Fourthly, try restarting your console. It could be that a hard reset of your PlayStation, Xbox, or PC prompts recognition of the license for Diablo 4.

Right now, they’re the best tips for fixing and solving Diablo 4’s Error Code 315306 and the ‘Unable to Find a Valid License’ message. We’ll be sure to update this page if and when Blizzard confirms a proper fix for the issues or a fully reliable workaround becomes clear.
