    This works i am downloading now do steps below :).

    Here's what do do:

    1. Log in to your account at http://www.elderscrollsonline.com/.
    2. Go to Billing History.
    3. Look for 'ESOTU Imperial Edition for PS4 with account copy'. Your code is under that.
    4. Go to your Palyststion store and click Enter a Code.
    5. Put the code under 'ESOTU Imperial Edition for PS4 with account copy' into the box.

    Bingo! It works.

    ZOS, I think that you owe me a commission for writing your email for you.


    There was a 12 digit code and mine is downloading right now as we speak.

    Dam i am happy .

    If you log into your ESOTU account page and see a game code, please be aware it may not be active yet. This will result in an error when you attempt to enter it into the Xbox or PlayStation account system. If you encounter this, please wait. We will send an email this afternoon when all codes are active.

    Why are the codes not active yet? Its midnight in 7 hours and the beta took me 20 hours to download :(

    Everyone is asking the same question in a different way

    The original question was When are we getting codes
    Then it was when are emails going out
    Now it's.....please define these console limitations

    How hard are the logistics of this to arrange, really, when people who order brand new off the PSN store (or Live) can be preloading and in some cases playing right now? Meanwhile, the persons who supported this game through its painful infancy get absolutely no priority or support.

    Is it true that PSN codes won't go live till tomorrow? Is that the new goalpost?

    Give them a break, they have only had over a year to prepare for the release to console, hardly enough time to get it right O.o

    They're lucky they dropped the monthly sub, it's we'll pass mid day June 8th with no email codes from zen (I've tried mine in the billing). I would have had to cancel my subscription for a 2nd time if it wasn't free to play.

    Yeah, was mentioned earlier in this thread. Seems our codes are showing in account.. but I haven't seen anyone with PSN that has got it to work.. appears only Xbox customers are the one's downloading it..


    You are wrong buddy, i was who posted about the keys in our account showing, i entered mine and i am only 6 gigs from full download and i have the ps4 version, 12 digit code was accepted first time as was other peoples too who have ps4 version.

    I am sure zenimax will send them all out soon, as it will look very,very bad on them if it is not within the next 30 minutes or so, as it is very,very bad pr for them leaving it this late.

    @Thordin I have now seen reports of it, and sorry, didn't bother changing that post as it's already way in the past haha Did update the other post I mentioned that in - in the stickied pre-download official topic though ;)

    That's honestly all I'm hoping for now. Unfortunate but what can we do? If anything, maybe they will be available at midnight EDT, so then I at least can get a 3 hour head start.

    BTW Not that I actually know anything, but I'm guessing when someone buys something through the Xbox/PS store, MS & Sony get their cut at source and the price is usually higher than what they get from a physical copy of the game. The pre-download is an incentive to buy through the relevant online stores. When another company takes the money directly, I expect its treated like a physical copy of the game which you get on the day of release and need to install then. I've not seen this kind of thing on the Xbox before, I.e. you pay a third party and you get a game code before the release. Having the pre-download time we currently have probably had to be negotiated with MS/Sony.

    I feel like this is a [snip] poor attempt to try and get the 20 dollar pc players to buy the digital console version to double their money. Just calling it as I see it considering the only other option is ESO is shooting themselves in the foot once again...

    Yet another example of Zos' neglect of the PC community.. Pre-order Imperial Edition for PC, pay $15 a month for a year to play a to-console beta. Now we can't even get game codes after we forked over another $20 to try the game on the INTENDED platform.. I really feel like a valued customer /sarcasm

    Sorry for causing confusion @Thordin I made that post quite awhile ago, and was only stating I had personally not seen anyone stating their codes specifically for PS4 were working. I have seen since some confirmations for specifically the PS4. Was only making an observation as others before me, not a fact for sure.
