PC Pre-Order now available

[Moonfire]

I stopped into Gamestop and Pre-ordered and paid in full my copy of FFXIV:ARR for the PC. It is 29.99 vs the 59.99 PS3 version. I can't wait for phase 3...PLEASE let me get picked. lol.

Amazon has had preorder available for some time too: Link

 

Personally... waiting for info what's included in the collector's edition :3

[Moonfire]

Oh good point! Gamestop is good usually about upgrading to a collectors edition though so I am safe either way.

[Orlog]

I find myself being overjoyed and kind of perturbed at the differences in pre-order items compared to the first launch. But, I'm pretty relived to find that people who ordered the first version of the game get all of the digital items free of charge; chocobo hat and behemoth-pig. Ohmagawd.

So on "Good Morning Eorzea" it was stated that the computer collectors edition is only available at the Square Unix store. Can anyone give me a link with this info? I will be a sad panda if that is the case.

It looks like that's true. The collector's editions aren't available on Amazon or Gamestop's website, or anywhere else.

From this same forum I found the mention of some UK store named Zavvi.. seems they have the physical copy: http://www.zavvi.com/games/platforms/pc/final-fantasy-xiv-a-realm-reborn-collector-s-edition/10809034.html

Looks legit enough?

[Kari Illderthane]

I have used Zavi plenty of times, and I think what was ment was the digital collecters is only aviable through the Square store.

Gamestop hasn't been made aware of the release date or the collectors editions, so they aren't available for pre-order yet. But you can pre-order the base version of the game for PC and PS3. I just did mine today and am keeping an eye out for when they finally allow pre-orders for the CE.

[Moonfire]

I decided not to risk it and cancelled my order from Gamestop (and they returned all my money. I <3 them) and bought the boxed CE from Square Enix

[Kari Illderthane]

I couldnt actually buy the box CE version from the square store but that could be with me liveing in the UK.

Just a warning square just announced that those who buy the pc physical collectors edition the digital game items are part of a product code and arent seperate codes. What this means is that you would actually have to make a new account to get the items. So if you are a standard or legacy user and want those items+ the physical stuff you're better off getting the ps3 collectors edition.

Do you have the source for this?

[allgivenover]

It's true.

However...

 

... the PS3 version can be registered to an existing Windows account, which would allow you to receive the collector's edition items.

[Cornet Espoir]

Yeah I had to cancel my pc physical version because of this x.x

[Gideon Aryeh]

Hey did anyone get the preorder code yet from ordering off of Square's site? I didn't get mine and I did click on the link on the FFXIV site for the preorder code, but the email never came.

[Lizzo]

Looking up my game place (EB Games in Canada), shows that I can make a preorder online but it doesn't look like I can get the CE - may go to the actual store to see if I can preorder the CE there. If not, might have to go the SE site.

[Cornet Espoir]

When I had originally pre ordered from square they didn't give me the code they probably give it to you later. When I ordered from amazon they gave me my code a day later but only for the early access.

I pre-ordered from square and on the confirmation page after my purchase it gave me a download of instructions and a pre-order code....

[Arlon]

I also ordered from Se's site and got an e-mail confirmation with a product code.
