My partner plays the game on PS3 in the UK, and as it stands he currently has no way to pre-order that we're aware of. I'm just wondering if there will definitely be a PS3 digital pre-order in time for early access, guaranteed, as I don't want to pre-order a copy if we can't play on the 19th together.

I've seen a few people mention the digital PS4 pre-order but I just wanted to see if a moderator would respond to this question as I feel there are alternative options for PS4 pre-orders at the very least, so they may not deem it as important. Basically will PS3 players in EU be able to pre-order or are those players completely excluded from early access?
