Official site and beta info

Official site: Guild Wars 2

Closed beta: rumors are that the closed beta is taking place in february

Open beta: march and april of 2012

Official release: 2012 (probably at the end of the year)

so i'm getting my hopes up, although i'll probably be playing it at gamescom anyways (Guildwars 2 is announced to be there). Mike O'Brien, ceo (kinda), hopes that the game will live up to the hopes of the gamers after a five year of developpement
