Digital players getting screwed

[RonnyRAGE]

Is it 9pm Pacific time for the entire World? I'm in Germany and it's 9:30 PM or 2130 and I still can't play. Is anyone playing the digital version of the game yet?

Digital version releases at 12am (technically tomorrow) in your respective time zone.

 

[NothingPersonal]

Nope. It releases in about 8 hours.

Thanks, Can we switch or location and time zone to play earlier? I've tried Guam, New Zealand and Japan none work so far.

My copy becomes playable in ~8 1/2 hours

You have to purchase the game from the digital store of that region. Changing your console's timezone won't do anything. At least that's how its on PS4

 

[DDustiNN]

Yep. Digital always gets screwed.

 

[HeavyNorse]

I'm patient enough to wait. It will be worth it. ^^

Well why would you be able to? It’s still the 22nd. If anything digital is better because you get it at midnight. You don’t have to wait for delivery or go to the shop. Unless I’m missing something?

PC players are really the ones getting screwed, as it releases 12pm EST on the 23rd.

GameStop is releasing it at 9pm is probably what he’s referring to. Maybe other stores are too, but I know GameStop is for sure.

 

[Corruption100]

Yeah i always hated the digital timer. But not every game has a 9pm release so you just have to pick your poison

 

[Megax Rocker]

Mine is minutes away.

 

[RonnyRAGE]

2hr 3 minutes for me

 

[Nickolaidas]

50 minutes for me.

I changed my PS store's region from UK to Greece and the timer skipped 2 hours. Not sure if it will work tho as only the timer when I try to open the game has changed.

But whoever is from EU psn apparently can change its region (Greece has the latest timezone from the available countries).

 

[Nickolaidas]

18 minutes.

Whom should I play first? Noob? Shao? Johnny? Kuai? Sonya? Kollector? Kano? Cassie? Kotal? So many choices ...

 

[Nickolaidas]

5 minutes … okay, I'm off to play.

Happy gaming, everyone!

I changed mine from London to Athens and it didn’t change

 

[Steven_a]

I'm west coast so my digital games have always been playable at 9PM PST.

Well mine didnt work either even though the timer is at 00:00. Apparently what matter is from which store you purchased the game. Oh well. 1 hour and 30 left

Master race, though.

 

[Testurmight19]

Its not that bad. People still have to drive to get their game and then they have to come home and install it while digital we can pre download

 

[HeavyNorse]

In less than a minute, I will be playing the game!

 

[RonnyRAGE]

I still can't play and it's 12:07 WTF?
