Where's My PS4 Digital Greymoor Pre Order?

There is none in the PS4 Store.

All I see is hate and rage from people who don't understand how to.....

    They keep saying they have no information on the availability of the digital pre-order. (I think they just keep copy and pasting that on Twitter, most recently yesterday.) They're insistent that it will be available on PS4 on (console) launch day and have also made arrangements to ensure PS4 players can get the pre-order bonuses for a short time after launch.

    Here is the latest assurance on that, from May 8:



    They're clearly operating on the worst-case assumption that there will be no way to pre-order the game digitally on PS4. I would assume that to be the case as well. That way it would be a pleasant surprise if whoever is/are responsible for holding up the pre-order changed their minds. In the meantime, since PS4 players will be able to get the preorder bonuses at launch, the only thing that's missing is the mount. It's certainly not fair, but at least it isn't a serious delay in actual gameplay like the Skyrim DLC on PS3.

    My guess is that it is due to a combination. Sony now lists a benefit of being able to download 48 hours early when you pre-order a game. They may want the same requirement for chapters and other major changes to games that are being sold with pre-orders and ZoS may very well have logistical issues with that. Of course, I could be way off base.

    It's a possibility, I think. So far all ZOS has said is that it's beyond their control. There are at least three parties in play in here between them, Bethesda Softworks, and Sony, so there are plenty of issues that could have arisen. We'll probably never know for sure, but it bears keeping an eye on whether chapters will be available to pre-order through Sony in the future.

    Well that makes more sense than the previous slightly conspiratorial guesses. 🙂
