FFXIV Stormblood expansion code!

Got the news update to enter the expansion code on mog station.
Checked my email, there was no new code, only early access one.
So I hoped i panicked to early and jet to receive this new code!

I still have yet to get my code. I only have the Early Access Pre-Order one. Hopefully they are going out in batches.

I have yet to get my code either and I've gone into frustrating mess mode. I hope to get it soon.

THey're being sent in batches?
I bought the expansion via SE store, shouldn't it show up on My Orders page?

Yeah, or at the very least, tied to the Early Access code.

Especially for PC, the way that this has been handled is poor. This could have been simplified in one way.

If you pre-order a code for Final Fantasy XIV: Stormblood, you should be given the code on the Square-Enix store (Or Steam/Green Man Gaming) and then you access the Mog Station to redeem it. Fair enough!
But giving us a code, that we have to go to a "Redeem" page just to register the EA code that we already registered just to wait for a 2nd code to enter in for the redemption of the expansion itself. Madness!

Wouldn't the one Early Access code from the Square-Enix store be sufficient enough? Or is there a very weird instance where a person would register the EA code on a 2nd Service Account and then use the Expansion code on the 1st Service Account.

Even Playstation 4 players get it easy. Register the code and done. They don't have to do anything else.

As with everyone else, we are still awaiting the full expansion codes.
According to this post, we can only redeem the full game expansion codes from tomorrow!

Code:

---

Tuesday, June 20, 2017: Full game registration codes can be redeemed

---

So the only thing that we can do is either spam refresh in our webmails (Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook.com) or mash F9 in Outlook to get the email from Square-Enix to for the code.

Happy Stormblooding (Eh, that is not a word :P )

So funnily enough, it says this code was given when we enabled our Early Access Code. I did this for my account and my wife's and followed the instructions (it's Squenix after all) to get the Early Access coded entered on the Redemption Site, went through and clicked Download then Unlock Code at that time... the codes given were the same 18-Digit codes for Early Access.

You'd have thought if they didn't give them then, at least they would have included an option to get them or have it part of the Billing Email. The code given in that email that claimed it was the Access Code, is also only 18-Digits so Early Access. Yet now we're asked for a 20-Digit Code. Been trying all day and unable to get through to Support via Phone as it's been nothing but busy.

Makes you wish they'd thought this system out a slightly bit more. I'm not even concerned about Congestion and Duty Servers, that's normal with any expansion but if you can't play when it goes live after being in Early Access... if that character is in any Stormblood area then they are locked out. Went through that in Heavensward when we had a similar issue getting the code. : sigh :

Yup. Same issue, here. Received my early access key without any issue but I still have yet to receive an actual Stormblood key. No idea why they made this convoluted system that requires three separate keys for the same product. Need to use a key to get a key to register for early access so you can wait for a third key for the standard release.

Genius.

I have the same problem. I clicked the 'reveal activation key' only to find the same early access code that they already gave with my email.

I wouldn't think the actual codes would go out until tomorrow, when the game is officially released. Early access goes an extra few days as well to account for shipping (say you ordered via Amazon...etc).

This is what mine says, but I got mine through Amazon. I checked the info in my account there.

This item will be available on June 19, 2017 at 9:00 PM PST
Pre-order now!
Sold by Amazon Digital Services LLC
Access your content the minute it comes out.
You will receive an e-mail when this item is available.


I would assume that I get my actual code. I could be wrong, though.

So, we have to wait for another email to register the full version? Cause I put the early acces code but I Don't have any other for the full version :/

My understanding is you'll get another code via email (assuming you did a digital purchase).

You guys have no patience, could least wait until the 20th it actual release date before starting to panic since the EA code allows play until the 23rd from what I have heard.

posted that in a other thread so i just copy and paste it here. Hope it helps.

People that have bought a physical copy from somewhere and had them delivered already, or bought digital from somewhere else and have gotten a code already, are now able to register their full product as stated in the instructions above. Just be patient you will receive your code by tonight the latest.

You will have till June 23rd to register that additional code/key to your service account.

My physical CE hasn't even been shipped yet & have had no response from the SE Store. Shambles.

Thanks LunaFaye For the info

I was unaware of early access lasting until the 23rd.

My rage abates for now.

For me, since I ordered a digital one from the SE store, it has the code now under the Instruction button.

I got mine from SE Store as well, but the code displayed is the 18-digit EA code, not the 20-digit CE code.

It's good we got to play till 23rd, but what if there won't be an email with the 20 digit code till then? Is there a way to confirm we 'll get the code? I emailed SE help desk yesterday night but haven't got any reply yet..... please keep us informed if any of you 'll get an email with the code! Thanks!

How about ordering the complete edition and not being able to play any of the game or expansion until stormblood came out, and then having an invalid code unlock.

So for the people that ordered the digital from the SE store, but haven't received an email yet, go log into the store itself. The early access code should now be changed to the actual registration key under the unlock code button. Log onto the mog station -> account -> register expansion code/key -> confirm. Don't close the page yet, click on account again, now your stormblood should show an "O" for the platform you've purchased and the license you've obtained. If that's the case, great close the page and log in the game, or relog if you're already online, enjoy your items if you ordered the collectors edition.

Sorry can't help with the complete editions or games that have been purchased via different stores or ps4.

I may be wrong but heres how i understand it...
My bf has ps4 and i have steam
PS4: According to him it should be auto registered? Not sure when this usually happens.
Steam: Check your CD key list on Steam for the game. It'll just be the title of the game not 'pre purchase' that you're looking for.
Not sure about straight pc codes (non steam)

Yesterday it was showing me my EA code on the website, it's now for the first time showing me my Stormblood Expansion Code. I was in an absolute panic yesterday, until I read your post. Today, I was in another absolute panic until I read your post again, so that's twice you've stopped me from having a panic attack. If I see you on Leviathan, I'm going to hug you so hard.

I am most of the times not on Luna, would be very rare to run actually into me :) But I am glad I could help, I know how frustrating some things can be, and it's not like an easy progress if you haven't gone through it. Not to mention it's absolute different from last's expansion, but hey who's keeping track, right? lol

Yep somehow no new codes at all, not in email not on website
They could just make it automatic early access=expansion!

I got the code. If you ordered from SE store. first log-in on https://store.na.square-enix.com then go to your order and there should be a "Unlock Code" option next to your order. After clicking it you should get a 20 digit code that you redeem on MogStation. Hope this Helps.

Just go to your order history on the SE store and get your code there.

Early Access allows play up until the 23rd, so there's no need to panic.

This worked 100%!!! Thank you so much! I was starting to panic D:

I Noticed Yesterday that on Mog station it showed that i needed to "buy" stormblood. Showed that I had early access, but not expansion itself. I spent 2.5hrs on "Hold" calling Square Enix. Was told I would receive code in email yesterday or today.

10am EST here, yet to receive code
"Frustrated"

*sigh

Did you order it from the SE store? Did you check your order for the code?

I wouldn't have spend 2.5 on hold when we are still within the Early Access grace period (23rd) and codes are being sent out. Also, as I stated above, if you ordered from SE directly then the code listed on your Order History will have been updated from an Early Access code to a new Full Access code.

I had the same issue.

My code refreshed from early access to the normal one when I tried to cancel the order and received the error "You can not cancel the order because you already unlocked the code" (Which I never did btw, never had the green button that's supposed to be there)

After a couple hours of that I also received an email that "Your order has been placed" despite not doing any further action in the store.

I don't think I'll ever buy from the official SE store again, it's been fiasco after fiasco. Manual verification of my order for example, despite having an account for 6 years and always using the same payment method.

When you originally unlock the Early Access code, it gives you a message stating that doing so means you cannot cancel or get a refund.

I never clicked a unlock code for the Early Access code either.

It was in plain sight. The only button that was there was the "Instructions" one.

Maybe it's an EU thing that I didn't get such a button?

Regardless if there any button there or not I'm sure SE has ways of knowing if a code was used or not.
