    If there for some weird reason is a £130 price on that page, just buy it on the page that shows price in Euro! 130 Euro like £92, and there are no region locks between EU and UK, because UK is in the damn EU

    Hopefully this will work.

    Can't remember why, but I've tried this in the past on the S-E site. If you try to purchase from an EU version of the store, it won't give you the option to deliver to the UK.

    Ah yeah I thought it might be the same as the US store. Shame.

    for my country is just not available, I can only have it shipped in France and the UK but I dont live there at all... so in short, it cannot be pre-ordered or bought unless I have an address in one of those countries. I fournd a pre-order on Amazon that luckily I can have it delivered to my home address, hopefully although not a collector, I will have my copy.

    Square Enix's site is not working currently and has been off the entire (my morning)

    I sure as toffees don't agree with the price point here in the UK, but what concerns me even more at the minute is that regardless of the price I can't flippin' pre-order at all because the site is screwed up!!

    That said, Why is it that the CE is so expensive?! I was expecting it to be around the £80 mark, but £130 is just ridiculous. Sure, we get the added extras and the statue looks amazing but at almost an almost 50% price hike over the NA version, it's just pure extortion.

    Regardless of the obvious discrepancies between the UK and other regions costs, I find the cost overall to be fairly expensive. The actual content included is the same as the ARR CE bar the model. The ARR CE however gave us 30 days of game time which is worth about £9. If we're just looking at the UK prices, we're basically paying £70 more for a model.

    Will registering the content code not give us free 30days? It did when I added my PS4 version.

    I bought the ARR CE on ebay for £30 new and unsealed at Christmas, got really lucky with finding it, but yeah, totally agree it's a stupid price point. £70 for a model is ridiculous, something I'd expect from AC or Bloodbourne, not a FFMMO. Even the dark souls 2 CE that came with a 12" statue was a heck of a lot cheaper than this!

    How is the early access going to work with the physical editions? Are they going to ship out early and actually have the servers up and running, or is it only the download only that get the early access?

    If u preorder physical in a store the code will be printed on a recipt. If u preorder a physical online it will be emailed. Is what I belive was said

    There are bad ways to win - good ways to lose. What's interesting and troubling is that its not always clear which is which. A flipped coin doesn't always land heads or tails. Sometimes it may never land at all

    So if we get the physical, we still have to download it? Doesn't that rather nullify the whole point of having the physical edition? Or is it just an access code to the servers? That's a rather cack-handed way of doing things isn't it? Surely they'd just be better off mailing them early *lol*
