Earlier today there was some gossip going about on how BestBuy.com changed the release dates shown on their Diablo 3 product pages to February 1st, 2012. Then there were reports that a Best Buy store put up a promotional end cap for Diablo III with a digital countdown timer leading to February 1st.
Well, the guys at Joystiq received a copy of the very same picture that was posted on the Diablo III forums, and verified via a phone call to a Rochester, Minnesota Best Buy store that the Diablo 3 promotional display does indeed exist. The Best Buy employee that spoke with Joystiq also confirmed that their store would be doing a midnight launch for Diablo III on February 1st, 2012.
We decided to reach out to a store off of Geary Blvd in San Francisco, CA, and spoke with a video games department sales rep that confirmed that the store systems had been updated with a February 1st, 2012 release date for Diablo III. Unfortunately however promotional materials like the one captured in the photo spreading about the internet had not been put up yet according to the employee.
Current listings on the Best Buy website for both the standard and collector's edition of Diablo III now reflect the February 1st release date. On the other side of the pond Gameplay now lists a February 3rd release date for UK customers. Considering the date changes on the Diablo III product pages at major retailers in both the US and UK, along with the photo and confirmation on the promotional end cap at the Minnesota Best Buy, it's looking like a February release date is close to being a sure thing.
We've sent a note off to our contacts at Blizzard, and will update this post once we hear something more official.
Update: Target.com lists a February 7th release date. | where do you work?

I predict a March 2012 release for Diablo 3. Blizzard has posted this...Also, if you watch the videos they say "Diablo 3 is almost ready" or "We are almost done with Diablo 3" Diablo 15 Year Anniversary - Game Guide - Diablo III
At the bottom of the page The Diablo III beta is underway and we’re counting the days until the latest chapter in this storied franchise is ready to be unleashed upon the world.
We look to Diablo’s legacy and the passionate player community for inspiration -- they drive us to make Diablo III the best entry in the series yet.
We hope you’ll enjoy playing it as much as we’ve enjoyed creating it. | |

You definitely can't go by what Blizzard says. In 2011, they were so confident of a release that they even had people grow out their beards until release day, only to have to cancel the competition due to delays.
You don't tell your fans to grow beards until release day unless you're fairly confident.. and even that fell apart on them.

The Koreans just have to ruin everything! derp
On a serious note, is it still because they can't get past the gambling laws in Korea because of the auction house?

who knows what the truth is though..

Apparently there is a Diablo Console version in the works....read more here Diablo 3 is coming to consoles One of the reasons why we're exploring the idea of a console version of Diablo 3 is because we feel that the controls and the style of the game lend itself to a console," he said. "With some of our early experiments in putting a direct control scheme into the game via a 360-like analogue controller, I've [thought] 'Oh this feels even better, with direct control...' | |
