Seeing as this lists shipping and store pickup as options, am I correct in assuming that this is a physical copy of the game, or is it a digital download code? null

Question

It's a digital download code (for the Origin client, not Steam) inside the physical box.

blars · Answer

The game is digital download. The box just comes with the activation code in it. I'm not a fan of forcing customers to use a huge chunk of their bandwidth to download games instead of providing a disk and only downloading updates. Pray that net neutrality doesn't go out the window or this is going to be a huge issue for future games. You could easily end up spending another $10 in bandwidth fees to download each game and your download may be throttled so it takes days to download the entire game. If you are a hardcore gamer just hope that ISP's provide internet packages that include free streaming from gaming companies like steam and origin.

They have two versions. One is just an emailed code that they send. The other is a physical box but still only a code no dvd/rom.

It's both apparently. I'm not too happy about it, but I had to go to the store to pick it up as an empty box with the code inside.

Answer

most likely its both. Meaning that yes this is a physical game case, but a game disc is not there. It'll just be a download code for the game.
