The main character looks the same to the one from Sherlock Hound Anime.

That's definitely what it's supposed to be. You can see Sherlock Hound's Watson on the site here:

Imagine if a game was to be announced on April Fool's Day, only to find out its a legitimate announcement.
Has that, or anything similar, happened before?

People thought gMail was an April Fools Joke. They released it with an unprofessional press announcement, and people thought offering 1gb of mailbox space was absolutely ridiculous in 2004.
 
In Reddit /r/diablo and /r/pathofexile changed themes, so now Path of Exile discussions are held in /r/diablo and Diablo discussions are held in /r/pathofexile
 
The best part?

It's actually in the game for the day.

As long as it's not a fake patch that completely destroys a game balance or a new feature that would take a long of time, Blizzard has a tendency to actually implement a change like this for one day, or even make the joke game they are advertising (like the Flappy Bird clone where you play as Malthael)

in Guild Wars 2 your character's arms are extended, it dons a baron pilot headgear and makes annoying airplane (neerrrrrrrr neeeeerrrreroeoeowowowowow), the screen adopts a sepia tone, and when you die this awesome piano song starts playing.

5 Star a Wrestling was announced on April Fool's and nobody talked about it. My friend assumed it was fake when I brought it up to him
 
I'm also a fan of just keeping them all in this thread. I like seeing the April Fools jokes, but don't have time to trawl half of GAF to see them all. It's nice and convenient to have them all in one place.

Plus, it'd suck to litter the board with fake news. :\
 
I somehow hope Konami and Kojima will release a trailer with "this was all a joke. Silent Hills 2016, new trailer." BAM.
