It is the 2013 edition. The copyright is for 2012, but the game is from 2013. My 2013 pandemic also has a 2012 copyright.

<p>I can't understand what is the difference between the Pandemic 2012 and 2013!
And do 2012 awards winning edition compatible with the expansions, or have a misprint issue?. </p>

The second edition came out in 2013, the first edition in 2008. There is no 2012 edition. If you see it anywhere, then it's probably a typo.

There are differences between the 2008 and 2013 editions—for that, see [What are the differences between Pandemic and Pandemic 2013?](https://boardgames.stackexchange.com/questions/12508/what-are-the-differences-between-pandemic-and-pandemic-2013?noredirect=1&lq=1) .
