Arkham Horror 3e is Shipping Now

By Duciris, in Arkham Horror

The Upcoming page lists Arkham Horror 3e as Shipping Now.

I have it on good authority that it will be available at Arkham Nights (Oct. 19-20) and the Shipping status would have it releasing in stores the following Thursday (Oct. 25).

I'm so looking forward to this being released!

The Stars Are Right! ^(;,;)^

The deepest joy to see this news myself today, the boat is in. Yes i`m in the Uk and have to wait, but its not long now maybe close to Halloween maybe. So pleased i got my MofM painted so i can use the figures for 3rd edition. I feel the story part of this game is going to be great,and i look forward for it growing like 2nd edition ( not played ).

Got my preorder is preparing to ship email this morning from FFG!

wow that was quick.....cannot wait to see some game play and unboxing, i liked the 1 hour twitch video i saw......... enjoy Jason

Miniaturemarket still has my pre-order listed as "awaiting release". Shoulda just ordered direct, but I wasn't really thinking that far ahead :)

It hasn't actually been released yet, so that's not really a surprise...

Ah, I took "shipping now" to mean released.

Unfortunately, no. Products usually go from "shipping now" to "in stores now" (the actual release date) in about 7-10 days.

They try to update the "Shipping Now" status 2 weeks before the product releases. They occasionally miss putting it on the "Shipping Now" list, but that seems to be their attempted MO.

I received the shipping email this morning for my pre-order with a UPS Ground tracking number. Estimated delivery is 10/30. I’m in the US, btw.

I may have been in the late pre-order period since I pre-ordered in mid-Sept. Not sure when the cut-off was.

I pr-eordered the day it was announced in August, and still don't have my shipping info. :(

Same here.

Same here, pre-ordered on August 1. Hoping tracking number comes soon, although a rules release would be nice to bide the time...

I just messaged them about the rules. I want them too.

Does anyone else have the sinking feeling that this didn't release today? The "Shipping Now" status on this was put in at the same time as Discovery: Lands Unknown - 10/25/2018. Today, Discovery released and was changed from "Shipping Now" to "In Stores Now" and had its rulebook put on its home page. No similar treatment for AH3.0.

Yep. Looks like a Halloween release maybe. Sadness.

Many sources report (or at least strongly suggest) that release date has been pushed back to 1st November, reasons unknow. My personal opinion is that FFG didn't want it to be released at the same time as Discover.

AH3E is now listed on Amazon with a Nov 1 release date.

UPS says my pre-order copy will be delivered next Tuesday (10/30).

As if "one week is a time long enough to buy Discover, play it, and decide you need another game"? *puzzled*

Sometimes marketing strategies elude me. If I want a game, I buy that game, and play it for a while...

Anyway, I've got a UPS notification that my copy of the game will be at my place on October, 31st. Just in time for Halloween night!

Just got my tracking notice too, and it should be here by Monday the 29th. Sad I have to wait until after the weekend, but so it goes.

I just got the tracking notice for mine, no information in the system for when i should get it. I hope i can get it for monday!
