Diablo III Standard Edition and Diablo III Collector’s Edition pricing has been provisionally confirmed for South Africa.<\/p>\n

We spoke to SA distributor of Blizzard gaming products, Megarom, who confirmed that the current Recommended Retail Price (RRP) is R499 for the standard edition and R799 for the Collector’s Edition.<\/p>\n

Megarom also made it clear that these prices are subject to change, as there isn’t a confirmed launch date for the game beyond the traditionally vague Blizzard launch window of probably, possibly, sometime in 2012.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, there is an interesting development over on Takealot.com, who is currently listing the Diablo III Collector’s Edition for R670<\/a>.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing Takealot is the only company listing the Collector’s Edition of the game. We spoke to Takealot who confirmed that the price won’t be changing.<\/p>\n

Takealot also has the standard edition for R449<\/a>.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, the following SA retailers are also listing the game.<\/p>\n

Kalahari has the standard edition listed for R462.95<\/a>. Kalahari previously had the Collector’s edition listed for R740.95<\/a>, but it is now listed as out of stock (thanks _Caboose_).<\/p>\n

Johannesburg based e-tailer Zaps has the standard edition going for R425<\/a>.<\/p>\n

BT Games has yet to list a price for the title on their website.<\/p>\n
