Diablo 3 Release Date

**Azzure** · 10-03-2012, 01:59

I am not posting this on the front page because it is unconfirmed, and it is a rumor.

I repeat. Speculation / Rumor.

One more time. Speculation / Rumor.

April 17th-24th Date set @ May 15th!

Rumor / speculation o-meter: 70%.

A release date announcement is likely to be made next week, as early as Monday.

The reason that there is a release date "range" is because there is still ongoing network/server tasks being performed in Europe and South Korea, and the timeframes may vary. Though it has only recently reached a stage that the date is just about solid enough to release.

The date can also be pushed back depending on events relating to the network/server implementations

Don't ask for sources or where the information came from. You are very welcome to ignore this and go about your day, especially if you are the type of person who will get upset if it ends up being wrong.

I had to check to see if this post was from last week.

Are we just throwing darts at a release date now hoping to hit it?

Well heres hoping for the 17th (gotta go out of town that next weekend! T.T). Thanks for the rumor

.

My only hold up is that Blizz would do some sort of lead up announcement (I believe anyway..) to the announcement of the release date. Hopefully something pops up here this weekend so we can hope for a Monday announcement

April is a typo for August, right?

**treader** · 10-03-2012, 02:09

South Korea again. 1 month delay incoming!

I think this is pretty realistic, almost 3 weeks ago Jay said release date in the following weeks so... this is pretty realistic to me..

. That would be amazing if it was April 17. My bro might be out of mili training by then and we could both start making some $$.
