NCsoft announces Aion's Official Release Date! We hold a contest to celebrate!
o/
I can't even begin to say how excited I am to be able to deliver this news to everyone. For me personally, this has been 3 years in the making. Even though the news was let out early, it still doesn't overshadow the fact that Aion's most important announcement yet has arrived.
Aion has official release dates for North America and Europe!
NA
09/22/2009
EU
09/25/2009
Now, before you go all "OMG non-simultaneous release dates! NCsoft lied!" on me you have to realize that game retailers in NA and game retailers in EU put product on their shelves different days of the week.
However, I was told that early access service for Aion NA and EU should still launch on the same day,but know that with all dates and statements are subject to change. Once we have official word, we'll let you know!
From www.AionOnline.com
Your adventures in Aion begin this September! NCsoft is proud to announce that Aion launches in North America on September 22, 2009 and makes its official debut in Europe starting September 25, 2009.

Can't wait, I saw an article in the new Game Informer for it. NCsoft is hoping to make this their NA hit.
"Yea, I've been drinking again.."
I can't believe we have finally seen the official release date.
I wonder what percentage of people who will play the game - or barely try it - and state that it sucks rather than that they don't like it.
My vote is about 90%? That is, 90% arrogance in the MMO community.
Aion is an Asian grinder, not really liked by many Western English speaking citizens.
I hear there is still class imbalance on the asian version, that being casters get DESTROYED!!!
Casters are good for ranged combat...I'm not sure about that entirely.
What da hecckkk.. Go back to Sept 1, 2009!! >;O or earliierrrzz
What the hell am I suppost to do all summer? Be on mmorpg all day !! errrr lol
Haha, yeah I was hoping they would release it in like August or even July so I can play during my Summer Vacation... But they just had to start it when school begins...!!!!
Sweet, hope there are no setbacks.

You havent tried the game saying that.
AIon is fairly WoWified.

Well, one thing we know for sure about AION.
It won't be "pushed back", "classes cut", dungeons not ready, quests missing, class balancing all off kilter, and art lacking.
As much as this game has been extensively beta'd and played to death in other countries, it's ready. It's going to be refreshing to finally play a game out of that box and have it play without craploads and craploads of bugs in it for a change.
Look forward to it.

That was never the release date... You don't ever trust what Amazon says.
I just got my pre-order Sunday, I'm so happy ^_^

Did you get much of a change to try out the beta? I got my four preorders a week ago (1 for me, 1 for a friend, and 2 for my brothers)

I enjoyed beta 1 a lot but then my internet decided to take a dump in my router this weekend and block ports so I couldn't really play and I just got the problems fixed yesterday But looking forwards to July 2!

I read of a templar in a tournament stacking m.resist @ 800 for all stats causing a sorc to be able to do nothing but run from them (nullifying all their abilities). Sorcs have an ability which lowers enemy m.resist, but it's a chain spell so the only way to use it is to first land the 1st in the chain which is...not possible...supposedly lol
Guess its a good thing it's not releasing until 09/22/2009 and it's in beta now. :P
They've got THREE months to work that out, supposedly lol.
"TO MICHAEL!"
Good to hear! I may just check this game out.
These are quite good news. I knew that it is in September, but not that there is an official launch date.
