Although the official release is on 25th of February, it looks like PC users who live in the western hemisphere will have access to the game before the 25th. So, I'm curious to see when Best Buy will release the preorders too.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Feb 24th is the release date listed in Steam, the only source that matters since they decide when the game can be downloaded and played. Will we have our codes from BB in order to pre-load and play on the 24th?
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.According to the "How It Works Digital Downloads" support article: "Some pre-ordered games become available for download prior to their release date. While not playable until release day, downloading the game beforehand can save you time, leaving you more time to play. If a game you pre-order becomes eligible for early download, you will receive instructions via email." This seems to indicate the codes will go out for the Wednesday 2/23 Pre-load, which means the game would be playable at 6PM EST on 2/24 according to Bandai-Namco.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.According to the offical web site, the release date is February 25th; not the 24th.
