Ya gotta love press releases...
Set for release on the 28th April (i.e. this Thursday), Arena Net's first title has been awarded self-proclaimed titles such as: "one of the best-selling preorder PC games year-to-date in North America" and sells itself as: "a worldwide first for an MMO game" with regards to the simultaneous global release date. There's a bunch of other PR gubbins that could be blurted out here, along the lines of: anyone can play with anyone else, regardless of country of origin - as the wonderful press release states: "There are no sharded servers, no language-specific versions of the game and nothing to keep players from exploring the game world with friends from other countries." Sounds interesting enough.
Go here for more exclusive, never-before-seen screenshots and then go here for a new gameplay footage movie to celebrate the impending release. And, of course, you could always check out here for the old preview we've had for a while.
And we'll probably see you in Ascalon.
