I'm really confused.

The D&D Content Calendar says the Castle Ravenloft boardgame is releasing tomorrow. When I stopped by my local game store, they were looking at me with a bewildered look. They said they would have had it a long time ago if it was coming out tomorrow.

Amazon has the release date at Aug. 31, and various other online retailers say Sept. 31.

When is this game actually hitting the shelves? My brothers and I were really looking forward to playing this weekend. Is that not happening?

Thanks to anyone that can help clear this up.

I called my FLGS and they are saying August 31.  So August 17 is looking pretty iffy.

Not sure if it's still true but my flgs said they would get it in onthe 17th. But they told me this two weeks ago so it may have changed.

I was under the impression that the free scenarios released today were done so because the game is coming out tomorrow. I really hope it's tomorrow because I've already made plans to play with the family tomorrow night, my gaming group Thursday night, and Friday with some friends from back home that I only see once a month.

It seems that Wizards of the Coast is the only source that is still advertising a August 17th release date. Just in a short search it appears most places are advertising August 31st or early September (or just a 'coming soon') as the shipping date.

And Wizards dazzles us with their transparent and open communication to their hapless customers, as usual.
