daeity's post about the leak

(google translated - thanks xanathus!)
also, jay wilson was asked on twitter yesterday, "on a scale of 1 to 10, (1=not even close, 10=imminent,) how close are we to that all important #D3 announcement? " and he replied simply, "9."
edit - someone else asked jay wilson if he can "debunk or confirm the rumor of april 17th?" and he replied "i cannot debunk or confirm." plus, gamestop UK and amazon italy both have it listed for april 17th!
we will see on monday (3/5/2012) if blizzard gives us a release date! i will be a happy camper if they do.
According to "MMORPG Italy", the Italian branch of Blizzard Entertainment have just revealed the Release Date and Price of the game. (Thanks for the heads up Anonymous.)
The game will be releasing on Tuesday, April 17 and the prices are 54.90 for the Standard Edition and 89.90 for the CE.
Interestingly, this wasn't the usual retailer estimation, but rather it allegedly came from Blizzard directly and it was sent to several large retailers prematurely. It also came along with their price structure which was something that never accompanied any of the other retailer Release Date "leaks", but it's something that has always accompanied that Release Date announcement. (That's the part I found most interesting.)
The release of this new information seems awfully close to the predicted (by Incgamers and some other whispers) March 5th release date announcement, but the release would be only 1 month away which would be quite unusual for Blizzard given their past minimum 2 months. It's something I've discussed in the past (a compressed timeline), so I'll have more to say on the subject if this Release Date ends up being true.

Activision has revealed Italy to several large retailers Italian release date, some yet to be confirmed at the world average by Blizzard but rather than trust, of Diablo III . This would be the April 17, and prices are now set at 54.90 for the standard edition and 89.90 for the Collector.
Since the source is the Italian branch of the same publisher, I would say that after Easter to all the fans who are eagerly awaiting the release of the game will be more than positive. The rest of the dungeon crawler par excellence is almost ready for some time, and the latest statements have been conducted to art to increase even more hype.
