    That's been the "rumour" for ages, But don't be too excited because if were meant to release with the same module as the pc version they will probably test it on pc first... If we are lucky end of march. But there is little talk of the xbox version atm, Its quiet for us...

    Alot of people are losing interest because of the lack of info,

    When ever the release is for Xbox One, I'm waiting !!! I liked it so much better than the PC version.

    Missed the Beta due to RL obligations, but looking forward to the console release. Been waiting a long time as a former EQOA'er on PS2 for a console MMO.

    I actually downloaded the PC version of Neverwinter over this past weekend to get my feet wet so to speak. I have never been able to really get into PC gaming, and after fooling around over the weekend, I'm reminded why, console gamer at heart & IMO the game will be (to me at least) much more enjoyable with a controller in hand.

    I cannot recall the last time I was actually anxiously awaiting a game to come out. That said, a release date announcement would be wonderful.

    When I see the game on the Xbox store for pre-order than I'll believe it.
    Considering its F2P I doubt it will appear earlier than the night before release.....

    We would be lucky with a late March release at this point. Not really sure what they were thinking when they said release is "sooner than we think." Sooner than we think would be late February which is clearly not happening. It sounds like they ran into some issues and are afraid to admit there's no release date set in place.

    I'd guess the release to be the same time they change lockboxes, which is likely when Elemental Evil comes out. Makes sense, or else w.e; I dont see why it'd be very long if the xbox beta pretty much had most of the content available in what will be the full game already.

    If you look up the game in the xbox store it shows a release date of 03/31. Seems to be a solid leak to go on.

    3/31 is just a place holder, basically the same for other games with 12/31 for there release date that have no official news for release. 3/31 is the end of the 1st quarter; when they first announced neverwinter, it was expecting to be released in the West during Q1 of 2015.

    Announcement is coming soon probably later this week or next[i'm assuming(could be totally wrong)]. They announced the content that will be released, which was already known but still announcement was made for the console version too keep people happy.

    Honestly, if they stay true too the 1st quarter launch it will probably be released during the PC mod 6 launch(17th -24th[just a guess])

    There's no official date announced yet. The "Q1" and "March" listings on gaming fan and news sites is just a commonly placed estimate based on information they have to go on. However, in a live stream, it was said that it is coming sooner than most think and that its coming so soon, that there probably won't be an open beta period. Stay tuned to the official news site for future information.

    Also, here's a tagged list of XBOX-Specific News Listings, that will propagate in real time as new articles are posted.

    "Sooner than expected" has come and gone for most. Sucks that the 03/31 is just a place holder. Hopefully we get some news regarding an actual date this week.

    March 31st..... Yer right "sooner" than we think. This is later than we thought, well with dark souls 2 releasing soon after, I'll play a little if this is the release date,

    Can a Mod confirm this?

    B***s**t tbh its nearly later than they said.

    The release date is a Tuesday so I dont think the 31 is just for show in this case. Games usually come out Tuesday or Friday, and 3/31 is still Q1 so I don't see why not. They sound pretty confident about releasing it soon without an open beta and that's pretty much 2 months after the closed beta.

    Just be ready =P

    Definitely not "sooner than expected" especially considering that's the last day of Q1, but good to finally have the release date confirmed.

    Aye, it is now official! Rejoice!

    That sure is sooner than I had expected. I didn't expect it to late June or July.

    If you can't wait for the xbox version I have managed to get Neverwinter on PC running flawlessly with an xbox one controller.

    All you need are the windows drivers (Windows 7 or better) and copy of glovepie which is a free to download utility and a decent script. You are right, it is so much better with a pad. I've been getting top kill places in dungeon crawls and I reckon it's down to the use of the controller as I am rubbish at games:)

    If you get everything working and want a copy of the script I'm using PM me.

    Nice, I have tried using Xpadder, but need to map more of the controls. I like Xpadder because I can also use the mouse cursor with the controller. I'm gonna try out glovepie if it works well with Neverwinter, maybe PM me what setup/instructions to use. Thanks!

    Oh, my gamertag is Masta G X1 ... cant wait for the Xbox One release :)
