So,In other words Anet hasn’t provided any external info about the release date to retailers. This “fake” release date has been set for advertising reasons to encourage people to buy the game before a certain date, that is 31st december. Am I correct?
It has been revealed by third party sellers as listed bellow:
Kinguin: http://www.kinguin.net/catalogsearch/result/index/?q=guild+wars+2
Gamesdeal: http://www.gamesdeal.com/guild-wars-2-heart-of-thorns-ultimate-edition-pc.html
