Ack, you beat me to it! ;)

[Nachtfalke]

Ack, you beat me to it! ;)

Haha. :D Just hoping the preorders will go live real soon because it is 5:30 in the morning here in Germany and I need to go to bed.

[Kickpuncher]

priced at 270$ ouch

[KnightOfTruth]

priced at 270$ ouch

Yeah, just saw that. Almost wish it didn't have the play arts kai figure - probably paying full MSRP and then some for that. :(

[damar]

can someone please post the direct link to the preorder page.

[KnightOfTruth]

can someone please post the direct link to the preorder page.

It's not up yet, but will do. Though I imagine I'd only have the SE USA/NA store link, not the EU or elsewhere.

[Nachtfalke]

EU store is already struggling. That will be fun. :taunt:

Thanks alot :). The NA store is alright for me. It's just I am not concentrating, it's too early here.

Where did you see the price?

Beat me to it Nachtfalke!

[KnightOfTruth]

Oh you got to be kidding me?! They've got a different steelbook for the deluxe version than for the Ultimate? Looks like there's two steelbooks in the ultimate, and then a different one in the deluxe? Must've missed that in the initial announcement post :(

Here's where I saw the price:

thanks for answering. so theres still some available via eu site when it fixes?

[damar]

The PS4 version of the Ultimate Edition is up again on the US site

[Lightning00]

I order the ps4 one but does anyone see it in their order page?

[damar]

I really don't know. I hope so though.

[KnightOfTruth]

I order the ps4 one but does anyone see it in their order page?

I don't yet, but this is normal with SE store. It happened with FF XIV Heavensward as well. Took a few hours or so and then emails and orders showed up. I wouldn't be worried until tomorrow night if you've got an order# from the website itself.

[damar]

I ordered mine too, but it didn't appear on my orders page.
I did order a CD soundtrack some 30 minutes ago and it has just appeared now. I guess it takes sometime to appear, but I am not sure.
this is my first SE store purchase.

Alrighty thanks so much I hesistated for 3 minutes because of the price tag but I caved in. Also I order the standard shipping but I heard overnight is free, is this true and if so does my order get bump up to overnight?

[sallou999]

its 5.30am here, im panicking. i will pay so much to get this pleeeeeease

please post a link if anyone sees it on eu store

[KnightOfTruth]

Never heard that overnight was free before. That's news to me. It could be based on the price, but not sure. If you decide to cancel, they don't charge til about a week before launch date anyway (unless you used paypal of course).

Aww I used paypal but its okay. As for the overnight it was floating around in the stream that a few people said but Ill take it with a grain of salt

My panic level is over 9000! :nosleep:

Good luck to both of us.

Im trying to pre order the Ultimate CE AND Deluxe Ed for PS4, in the uk.

You're not alone, I'm still waiting as well. O_O

[sallou999]

You know youre a fan...

I'm welling up- convinced Im not getting one. Im actually close to tears. either Im an ultra cool amazing fan, or a total loser.

[Nachtfalke]

I will wait the whole morning if needed. Fuck sleep. :nosleep:

[sallou999]

Its 6.10am I havnt slept since a day and a half ago. I have work at 10.30am until 10.00pm O.O

[Lightning00]

Finally the email can go in and I can play the demo! So happy

[Dymblos]

if anyone have one for ps4 available, let me know pls

[CollectorFanatic]

$90 for a f****** steelbook?! Hell no. Theres too many CEs coming out in the next few months so i wont even be getting the ultimate edition either unfortunately. But seriously....an extra $30 for a steel and a dlc costume....thats rediculous.

[Nachtfalke]

Could put one in my basket but since then the site is down again. JESUS CHRIST!

[sallou999]

its crashing before i can get it in my basket

[Ce-Maniac]

Same here. It's in my basket but i still can't checkout.
Database unavailable. Holy sh....

[Ce-Maniac]

Got one!!!!!! Yaaaaaay Now i wait for the confirmation email.

[sallou999]

Got one!!!!!! Yaaaaaay Now i wait for the confirmation email.

UK?!?!?!?!?!

[Nachtfalke]

How? The database is completely offline?! :(

[sallou999]

Having issues with my log in and cards now. Someone please order 2 and ill paypal you.

[Ce-Maniac]

I was just permanantly reloading the site. Afterwards i was able to take a look at my order history and the order is there. So hopefully, it worked. But i still wait for the confirmation email.

[sallou999]

It keeps logging me out, ive to put new card details in as well. I think im screwed

[Nachtfalke]

YES!!! I got one!

[Ce-Maniac]

Congratulations :)

[sallou999]

Im *this* close to crying. No joke.

[Nachtfalke]

Yeah, my friends are crying too. I want to buy three, it's limited to that thank god, but it takes forever to change that number so I just stick with one. I hope you guys can get one aswell!

[Ce-Maniac]

Got my confirmation mail. I have one spare for XBoxOne. Anyone interested?

[sallou999]

Me please

[Ce-Maniac]

Me please

Congrats :) Please send me a PM

[sallou999]

Theyre not in my basket when i cant get it. Sold out then?

whats authenticating every time?

[geralds]

ouch already people selling the preorders they just got for this thing for $500+ serious wow. I wasnt even able to get mine which sucks really want one.

[sallou999]

Never thought Id shed tears over something like this.

[Interinactive]

Anyone else got a spare? I'll pay a finders fee or offer something to trade. It sold out before I even knew it was on sale :(

[bbki]

Thanks, batman and superman :')
Come out of a theater to found out the whole deal.
Ah well, probably have to wait for a year or two to get it at affordable price.

[Keys]

EU site seems to be working now just managed to get one, been trying since 6AM...

[sallou999]

Ditto! Glad I persevered. been at it for exactly 3 hours 20 minutes.
Theres a chance they sold more than 30,000 with all the chaos, so I'm gonna curb my expectations (Im expecting an email apologizing and cancelling my order,)

So. I havnt slept since Tuesday.. its 8.20am, I have work in 2 hours for a 12 hour shift.... WORTH IT.

[Anjelaoni]

I am at the payment, but can't click the payment button. :(
Edit: Worked with IE instead of Firefox. :D Got one myself, but I'm not too sure about it (I'm looking at you, Prestige Edition!)

[sallou999]

It was Chrome for me. Firefox was awful.

Anyway-

CONGRATS to everyone for nabbing one.
I was 8 when I played FFVI, my first FF and fell in love. It, 7 and 10 became the greatest loves of my life, an integral part of my childhood, and FFX in particular may have saved my life.
I was 15 when FFVersusXV and XIII got me crazy hyped and excited and dreamy and saving for my PS3...

Im now 25 years old.

And in 6 months I'll finally be playing it. Its weird what video games and fictional worlds can do to you, but I feel like ive been getting to know a great friend via letters for ten years, and now Im finally gonna meet them.

Its been 10 years. And it'll be here soon.

Ouch. Thats frustrating.

[Anjelaoni]

Its wierd, but I can still preorder the UE in the EU Store. Not sold out or did they open the line for everyone? :D

[Twisted]

we went through this fiasco already with the mighty number 9 signature edition being extremely limited supposedly..once square enix realizes demand..i expect a restock..just like the DRAKENGARD 3 collectors edition, of which there was only 5000 copies, was restocked over and over.

Hm. It seems that beeing a videogame collector nowadays means, getting scammed by the publishers (producing a shitload of different editions and keeping the most expensive ones artificially limited to bump the price through the roof) and the collectors by buying every crap the publishers throw at us and then try to sell it for the most ridiculous prices at some auction platforms.

These are sad times for beeing a collector. :-/

[GameTrigger]

Made pre-order but I'm not sure that I will keep it - I don't like those steelbooks but I love that other/with Amano art steel :(
Interesting if they will release artbook and anime BD separtly also or not?
The other thing is about "limited" thing - 30000 isn't very limited but FF fanbase is huge...

[Daethos]

Just preordered the Ultimate Collector's Edition from the EU store, so hyped for this game. been a big fan of Final Fantasy since FF 7. (first FF game I played was Mystic Quest on Gameboy). Maybe I should start a FF collection, although my wife might have something to say about that ;)

[rapister]

gee... if anyone has an extra.... i would be willing to take over.....

[Letrico]

Can anyone help me secure an EU preorder? Australia is only getting 80 and is going Raffle to get it.

Hi StayFree! Long time no see! Was thinking about you the other day (and what it could be that I owe you for what you have for me -- you never actually told me what you got haha!). You shouldn't have to worry though, you should be able to sell all the crates of things you got signed while you were there to pay for the eBay prices on these, right? ;)

If I see them open up again though, I'll snag you a Ps4 one since I only got the X1 version. :thumb:

Wuts up knight! Yeah, kinda disappeared for a while. Temporarily put collecting on the back burner...but, as you can see, I relapsed...

I know you're pretty prominent on CAG, so if you are able to snag one I'd be very appreciative. Got a signed tomb raider poster here for your efforts. :v

...oh, and all they gave us at the event was a calendar :bday:

[Isauretjuh]

I really kind of dont understand how this sold out that fast. i mean its just a play arts kai figure. not even a statue. the only reason i would get this is for the steelbooks. And 270 dollar is insanity, even mirrors edge didnt hit that mark..

Game disc + movie BD = 90€
PA figure - 100€
Anime BD - 35€
Artbook - 30€
Steelbooks - 15€

Because PAK figures run ~80-150 USD (for standard size) depending on subject matter/popularity.

The others, in the FFXV set are 130 USD.

270-130 = 140 for the rest. That's x2 steel books (not really pretty ones, but eh), the game, the art book, the movie, post cards, music disc, etc...

It is a way better value than some of their other "CE's."

Hmm i guess if u look at it like that. it makes a little more sense. I just never considered play arts figures to be worth much. or well to me. cause i hate figures that have moveable joints haha. I guess ill just hope to pick up the steelbooks someday for my final fantasy collection.

You guys are going to have a hard time

EB Games Australia have announced that they’ll only be receiving 80 units of the Final Fantasy XV Ultimate Collector’s Edition. They’re now offering those who had preordered and are existing Level 4 members the ability to enter a random draw to secure the option to upgrade their preorder.

Yes, we're getting shafted for this one. May as well have just skipped our region altogether.

I've read that those who were "lucky" enough to secure a copy said that it's priced at AU$400. Which is what I was estimating, but didn't expect as little as only 1% of the total quantity to be allocated between Aust/NZ. :blackeye:

Is it still worth it to buy from ebay for 600 Bucks :( ?

More should be on it's way soon

[Twisted]

come on guys!! you know there will be returns, credit card declines, and order cancellations, and back of warehouse restocks during release day window..so don't lose hope that is no chance..big mistake to commit to ebay scalper prices only to see some of them get restocked for retail.

WTF

[Twisted]

so 30,000 units worldwide may become more like 50,000 units.

[KnightOfTruth]

I certainly hope not. I'm so tired of limited editions being increased because fans whine or companies undervalue the demand. If you say its a limited #, keep it limited. Some of us won't be able to get it and some will, that's just how the game is played. Will I whine a little when my game is sold out? Sure. But I'm not going to demand they make more if they've already told those who pre-ordered it that they were getting 1/x edition. Just because we're fans of things doesn't mean we instantly deserve or earn the right to have something, even if we're the BIGGEST fan of something. Sometimes even big fans have to pay big bucks because reasons.

Okay, /rant

Sorry, just had to say that I hope they don't make more, and not just because I was able to get a pre-order, but because I hate it when companies tell one thing to everyone, and then change it up (even if it benefits me, I still hate that they did it to everyone else...just probably a little less in that situation :blush: )

+1

But if they increase print run and lower the price?
270eur x 30000 = 81000000eur
81000000eur : 50000 = 162eur

He's looking for the PS4-Version. I wrote to him already.

[Queeny]

Did you read the news ?
SE might make more copies + they are doing their best to deal with the re-selling everywhere like ebay .

There is a big chance they will make more .
Most of the video games site wrote about it . It was published first on the FFXV Jap twitter account .

[Ce-Maniac]

Yes, i read the news. I'm not going to sell anything on ebay. I just want to give my spare copy to someone who was not able to get one. I don't want anything extra for that. And unless there are no more copies available, i thought somebody might have interest in that. So i don't see the problem here.

are you keeping it sealed? if not just buy the PS4 game and switch disks...just a thought as I'm sure it's the statue and other stuff you're mostly after?

Just realised I don't think I've really seen those images anywhere, it's mostly just the multi-format pics everyone has used xx

[goonergaz]

yeah, I can understand not wanting that yucky green strip across the top :sick:

I'd still be tempted to get the XBO version and then try to swap down the line, I know it's a bit scalpy (but not really because you won't be making anything) but even to get a PS4 one off eBay and try to sell the XBO one at a similar price so at least you're not too much out of pocket.

I've bought editions before to have it 'in hand' then sought better condition over time...similar idea really.

[Matrix6]

I know, just wasn't sure if you'd bend on the format just so you'd get the edition :P xx
I would perhaps, if I had an Xbox One, but not for the FF series though, and other particular franchises.

Under xtreme sales circumstances I'd turn, but I would prefer not to triple dip as is with multiple SE editions (as always since FF13).

To me, the statue for this is not too special, firstly, it's a Play-Arts figurine. Which believe will be available to buy on its own at a later stage because the other three guys in their party are available for preorder already.

I do hope they make more of this edition, I just want to have it. Even if it's an un-numbered edition it won't bother me. Didn't that happen for Borderlands 2 Ultimate Loot Chest Edition?

And really? 30,000 units to cover a massive franchise expanding almost 30 years?? They released more for Crisis Core: FFVII on PSP (77,000)!!

That was a different time, and today there are still long time fans no matter what crappy FF game they release unto us poor sods.

Plus, many have waited ten long years for this release since it was announced! I know it's gone through a lot of changes, but the demand for it has been still quite high imo.

We (FF fans and collectors) deserve far more than what they've offered so far! I don't even care if they release a CE without the figurine. It's mainly the other contents that I would mainly want as I probably wouldn't complete the figuring set. Who know how many they're release later.

I am glad I got the summons figures for FFXIII though :bday:

Yeah, most widely released CE's do have a branded box slip covers, apart from maybe obscure editions from deep within Poland or some other.

An update: https://www.reddit.com/r/FinalFantasy/comments/4dz0pw/se_gives_update_for_those_waiting_on_ultimate/

-SE originally intended on limit these to 2 per account, but website issues caused them to not be able to set the limit.
-Any account with more than 2 orders will have orders canceled. And possible other reprucussions (possibly account ban)
-Canceled orders will go to people on waitlist (starting with priority waitlist)
-No more UCEs will be produced, 30k was the limit.

Any update regarding second lot pre-orders if any ?

[vhal_x]

Any update regarding second lot pre-orders if any ?

They're not producing any more copies. They are however cancelling orders in any account that exceeds the 2 copy limit. These are then being prioritised for people on the wait list. If there are any left over after the wait list is taken care of, then I'm sure they'll announce that they're going to list them. But I feel that the wait list will likely drain a large chunk, if not all of the copies that become available due to cancellations xx

[ExMajik]

I think it's dumb you cannot modify your order on their website.
I have 3, one for myself and 2 for friends. I can't modify it to just order 2 of them!?

Such BS.

I think it's so they can prevent scalpers from manually reducing their orders to two, to prevent losing all of their orders.

[ExMajik]

Actually, its been like this forever. Their website is crap.

[Mike1888]

So any idea when people on the waitlist will be contacted?

[ExMajik]

They no doubt won't tell. But I doubt anytime soon. My order has yet to be canceled.

I'm so happy I managed to get two. I really wanted that play art kai noctis and he's exclusive to the UCE.

Thank you for the info. Now, my boyfriend can have one, too since he wasn't able to get an UCE.

[ExMajik]

Square Enix (NA) sent out a email to everyone who ordered more than 2 Ultimate Collector Editions. They are giving those users first dibs at fixing their orders down to the minimum of 2 per person. I just fixed my order :)

This may be good for people like us that are helping each other get a copy. But scalpers can still abuse this system...

Im on a phone now so i cannot. However if they do not fix their order it is permanently canceled. They have until the end of today to do so.

Gonna go on a limb since we never saw a copy of this email, and no one else anywhere has posted about this happening or having their orders cancelled at the end of that day they supposedly had, and say that this wasn't legit unfortunately.

[ExMajik]

Dear customer,

We regret to inform you that in order to give every fan a fair chance to purchase the FINAL FANTASY® XV ULTIMATE COLLECTOR'S EDITION, we have limited the max purchase quantity to 2 items per person. Therefore we had to cancel your current pre-order containing more than 2 units, but you will still be able to purchase the game by placing a new pre-order through the following link: LINK HAS EXPIRED

This private purchase link is only available for 48 hours and you will miss the preorder window if you try it outside of this period.

Thank you for your understanding.

Best regards,
The Square Enix Online Store Team

That's the email. That was sent from Square Enix North America branch.

[halalima]

Check out @FFXVEN's Tweet: https://twitter.com/FFXVEN/status/723133163158028289?s=09

Square Enix will produce more Ultimate Collector's Editions of Final Fantasy XV.

[geralds]

Hopefully they will make it so everyone who wants one can have a chance to get one.

[halalima]

Only 10000 more.

[Matrix6]

Yes, I was hoping hard this would happen, I don't care for the numbered version, I just want a UCE. Make another 30k-50k unnumbered if they want. (and no stupid raffling)

[KnightOfTruth]

Happy for those who will now be able to get one without having to pay outrageous scalping fees, but upset that they announced 30k "LIMITED" run, and then backpedaled and are making more. It's not that I was likely to sell mine anytime soon (plus I don't keep mind sealed), but it's just a matter of ultimately diminishing the "collectibility" (albeit not by much) for those who did stay up and were able to get one. Oh well, that's how it goes sometimes and at least more of you can avoid scalpers (hopefully)!

[halalima]

Actually, the thing that annoys me with Square Enix (European Branch) is that when they limit collector's editions in its store, only some have access to them.
They say that they're a European store and they only ship to some European countries. Very unfair for fans.
I'm lucky to ship my orders to a friend in Germany, but what about other people?
Especially with editions that disappear pretty fast.

I agree 100%. I find it annoying when companies say they will make a certain number and then either seeing a chance to make more money or caving to people begging they produce more. If one of your advertising bullet points is the limited number produced, then just changing it is a slap to those who purchased the initial batch. Some buy only because they love a series, but many factor the relative rarity of it into their purchase.

I am consistent in that as well - even if I am the one who misses a window to buy something or can't find something that is not available in my region, that is just part of it. Some people want to see things like this made in mass quantity and then you find them in discount bins like most of the Halo or CoD crap due to the market being saturated.

In this case, Square should of already had measures in place to stop the scalpers, but aside from fixing that oversight, 30000 should of been it.

Sometimes we just have to put on our big boy pants and realize we may not get our way. Instead, you find people over the internet who hold their virtual breath and stamp their feet to get what they feel they deserved since obviously they were slighted by missing out as THEY are surely the biggest fan in the world.

Also, get off my grass! :rant:

Agreed. And then you see 'The Lord of Cinder' statue being produced as a standalone in one region. The Prestige Edition was limited to 2000 pieces, and the NA statue also being limited with the numbering system...with duplicate numbers?? That, in a way, is worse than adding more to the numbers...

I would settle for a "Collector's Edition" for FFXV since there isn't one release. If it had everything that the UCE has sans the figurine (not "limited"), I would glady settle with that as I don't really care for a non-statue. Plus, make it available for the mass. I'm sure there are far more than just 30k hardcore fans out there, as well as those who have waited for this since the announcement a decade ago.

I actually feel bad for the aussie as well. Only around 80~ for them and it was a raffle for a CHANCE of buying it

Im surprised when they initally announced only 30k UCE was going to be made I would have thought they would make 50k. Though Im a bit annoyed they went back on their word after saying many time they wouldnt make more but I do feel bad for a lot of people because the pre order was a fiasco

[THEREALDEALDUDE]

i just added these both, their is one thats a day one edition but i wont added till i see a standard edition worst case ill add post release.

[THEREALDEALDUDE]

ahh i just added the day one edition now

[Singh]

When the 2nd batch does come out, would be grateful if someone would be kind enough to help me out. Will be more than happy to cover shipping. I have a feeling EU won't receive as much distribution as NA in this 2nd batch but we'll see I guess.

[halalima]

The European Store tends to sold out much later than the Na one.

The scalpers all had their orders cancelled due to the 2-per-person limit. So now, I'm guessing anyone who has one (or two) have them for themselves, and possibly a friend. Or a spare to resell at a later date x

on the special edition page the steel is described identically ''Ekskluzywny steelbook zaprojektowany specjalnie dla tej edycji, który b?dzie zawiera? grafik? przygotowan? przez legendarnego grafika serii: Yoshitak? Amano''

judging from the descriptions looks like both editions have steelbooks with graphics made especially for them :think:

It's also worth to note that the French edition (seems to have only french audio and subs per Amazon fr page) has 3 discs and the following:

- Blu-ray disc
- DVD version of the movie
- 1 Blu-ray bonus disc
- Digital copy of the film on UV

Whereas for the UK or US version (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Final-Fantasy-Kingsglaive-Steelbook-Blu-ray/dp/B01H1U3VD4/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1470136378&sr=8-2&keywords=Kingsglaive%3A+Final+Fantasy+XV)

We seem to only have 2 discs which I presume is the Blu-ray version of the anime and movie.

Interesting. I think in the US only Gamestop is getting the game as a preorder bonus or something aren't they? I'm assuming it won't come with a steelbook either? But I haven't really been following this much.

Is the UK listing the same steelbook as the .fr one? Obviously the placeholder art appears different, but I hope its the same one -- that's a nice looking G2! :)

Yep it's called the King's tale, it's a pre-order bonus so pre-order either the Deluxe or Day One edition and you will get this game. For EU or UK; game.co.uk is offering this as a pre-order bonus.

Amazon.de version seems more in line with Amazon.co.uk based on the number of discs but not sure if this is final artwork.

https://www.amazon.de/Kingsglaive-Final-Fantasy-Steelbook-Blu-ray/dp/B01HPWDXVS/

But note it doesn't mention the anime like the UK listing! Also worth noting Amazon US has removed steelbook from their listings, the Amazon.com links on page 20 (http://collectorsedition.org/forums/showpost.php?p=280278&postcount=198) of this thread seems to point towards the regular edition now so members who ordered this with Amazon.com should check their orders on their accounts just in case.

Edit:

Seems like Amazon Spain and France is selling the other variant as well (Maybe cheaper than importing from AUS for us in the EU)

Is there a version of FFXV which is just a steelbook without any slipcase or special packaging?

Any regions where this might be available? Silly gripe I have where I dislike slipcases on games.

[King Peter]

Looks like the game will be delayed until November 29th

I wishbthey had this for the pro version...:banghead:

[ExMajik]

I was hoping as well. Until about a hour ago they had no pics and little info at gamestop.
I figured with that price, it must be a pro system. :/

[0329liuken]

Yeah when I first saw the price I thought it was PS4 pro, and it was a pretty good deal if that was the case.

Usually a limited edition gives you $50 discount, the system itself is 399, limited edition game is around 80, and the blue ray is like 25, so that's around 450 after the "discount"

If you sign up on waiting list for Final Fantasy XV Ultimate Collector's Edition, Don't forget to look through your mail today.

[Cam]

I think it's fake/fan made - official design for iPhone case is different and using "15" as number is strange too...

A friend of mine just told me they already started to charge some costumers for this. Is anyone able to verify that? I don't think mine was charged (they wouldn't be able to if it was...) but I just cleared some room on my credit card because of that.

[KnightOfTruth]

They sent out an email stating that they would be charging on the 31st of October (at least here in the US).
