In the world of marketing it’s sometimes hard to tell the difference between leaked information and deliberately leaked information (a.k.a.- Pre-Announced info). With anticipation high for news on Wizards of the Coast next Dungeons & Dragons edition, WotC has so far been tight-lipped with specific details. Now it appears online book retailer Barnes & Noble has accidently leaked the first two releases and their summer street dates, which gaming industry inside source ICv2 believes to be correct.
First posted on Sunday, the B&N.com active pages have been removed, but are available as Google cached pages. According to the now removed B&N pages, the Dungeons & Dragons Starter Set will release on July 15th with an MSRP of $19.99, and the hardcover Dungeons & Dragons Player’s Handbook will release August 19th (right after Gen Con), with an MSRP of $49.95.
These release dates appear to be in line with WotC’s announced “summer” release, and WizKids planned release of the first set of D&D Miniatures.
