Game » consists of 2 releases. First released on Aug 28, 2012

Guild Wars 2 is an online RPG developed by ArenaNet, and continues the subscriptionless business model of the original Guild Wars. The game is set about 250 years after the events of its predecessor in a world devastated by the ancient elder dragons resurfacing after millennia of slumber.

Any news on the progress of this game?

That sounds about right, they have said that they will be releasing the game once the entire triology of books that they are writing have all been written.  The first one has already come out while the second is slated for a December release so a march - april release sounds about right.  Well the most recent information that they've released has been about the apps that GW2 will be supporting on smart phones.  I don't know how up to date on news you are but I try to pool a lot of news, links, pics, and videos from around the web onto my forum thread over at G4tv.com heres the link if your interested:

Other people have been speculating that it would be around that date. Though personally, I can't see how they can pull that off with a beta somewhere in there. But I don't really know how betas work in MMOs and how close they're to release date.

They're doing a Beta first I think. Late 2011 is what I think I heard at PAX about release.

I'd be surprised if it comes out that soon.
