SuchRemorse Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 I played this game awhile ago. I wanted to play again but I can't find this game on my system. Also.... When I go to the Psn Store, I find it without anyway to download it or buy it or anything. All it says is "add to wish list" with no other options. Please help!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheYuriG Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Does it show up in your games library? Use the search feature to find it if you chose to previously hide it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyZero Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Maybe you played it when it was in PS Now / PS+ Extra catalogue? Sony removed it from PS+Extra on November 15th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember if I bought it or if I played it on PsNow when that was a thing. But still... It should be available to purchase right??? When I go to the playstation store all it says is "add to wish list" with NO option to buy or download. When I go to my wish list the only option I have is "remove from wishlist" So something is strange there...

So I can't even buy it now??? Is that what you are saying? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyZero Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 you should be able to buy it anyway... this is weird. Maybe try from console, Phone and PC ? different stores have different behavior sometime... Otherwise you can try to contact their (shitty) support 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrBloodmoney Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 You could try logging in with a different account, and seeing if it is available for purchase there? That would at least confirm if it is available or not - and confirm it's something odd with previous versions / glitches with your specific account. If that is the case, you could buy it on that other account (just add wallet funds via a PS-Card if you don't want to attach a credit card), then make your console the "primary" for that account - that way, you can play anything bought with it on your real account. I had to do similar with my wife's account, to buy some of the Persona Dancing games - since one of them is only available as part of the "trilogy pack"... but the store wouldn't let me buy the pack on my account, because I had already purchased one of the other games contained within it... ...and trust me - phoning Sony Customer Service is a byzantine, kafka-esque nightmare from which there is no escape, no help, and no hope! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainskyhawk Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Are you sure it was the apocalypse edition you had and not the PS3 edition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GravityQueeen Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 (edited) This game behavior in the store is so odd. When it went to ps plus extra there was no option to purchase it anymore, what in my opinion is infuriating because I don't want to be forced to sign the service, I remember that it happened or happens with other games as well, games that got locked behind the service and aren't available to purchase. I don't know if that changed, but talking about Dead Nation, once the game was removed from ps plus extra it looks like it turned purchasable again, but minutes ago I couldn't find the game through ps5 store and only saw it by the store via ps app, added to my cart but wasn't able to purchase it for some reason, then I added another game to the cart, this time via ps5, then Dead Nation wasn't showing up in my cart on ps5 store, but on cellphone I had Dead Nation and the other game and finally was able to purchase it using the cellphone. I have no idea why I had to add another game to the cart to make Dead Nation purchasable. Downloaded it on ps5 but already deleted it because I know it doesn't work well on ps5 and I plan on playing it on ps4 instead. Well, that was the workaround I did to buy it.

I had the same problem with saints row 4 re-elected a few years ago. It didn't show up in my library and had no option to download from the store. Restored my licenses and it re-appeared in my library, along with a couple other titles that had disappeared 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happened the same to me years ago with WipEout Omega Collection. Does it appear on the Library from the webstore by the way? You could always queue it from there.

Yeah i meant that site. I no longer use the console to redeem/purchase stuff unless it doesn't work from the website. It used to have content for older systems (PS3/PSP/Vita) from early 2013 to late 2020. Now it has only PS4/PS5 stuff (but not everything, it doesn't have avatars, themes and apps for example, but the first two are no longer getting new releases anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
