You’ve probably heard that Blizzard’s production schedule was leaked (source: MMO Champion). It’s rumored to have been leaked by an anonymous, yet authoritative source.
Looking at past releases, the schedule gets them right: Battle.net 2.0, Starcraft 2, WoW mobile, Cataclysm.
Ok, but what does that mean for Diablo 3 and its release date? First, we confirm that 2011 remains the target date. On the negative side, it seems they are targeting the holiday season, so November or Decemeber 2011.
Using the Starcraft 2 beta as approximation, we can assume that the Diablo 3 beta public beta will probably start in June or July. Remember to opt-in for beta testing the Diablo universe on your Battle.net account.
Some of you have attended Blizzcon 2010 and 1000 beta keys will go to Blizzcon attendees. What else can you do?
