fisty123 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 (edited) Persona 5 Royal has been released in Australia early, the release date was moved from the 31st to the 25th (today) both Atlus and Deep Silver allowed the release date change but have yet to comment why with most saying due to a potential lockdown coming in Australia. Been no announcement on other locations yet.

puckelberry Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 (edited) bugger if I knew that I wouldn't have cancelled my preorder, guess I'll jsut have to stick to Doom and wait a week. Lockdown sucks but atleast it keeps people safe and allows me to game in the sunshine without feeling guilty Edited March 25, 2020 by puckelberry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrtanium100 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 For all the peeps wanting to claim the theme early as well. I just checked and the code isn't activated yet so you'll need to wait until the 31st for that regardless 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a release date of the 31st who knows what will be open by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YTPerfectParadox Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Never sprinted into EB Games so fast. It's also the same for One Piece Pirate Warriors 4 if anyone's wondering which was supposed to come out friday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToaElnida Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Here in Spain it has been already sent to many people (myself included). But I can't seem to be able to redeem the code for the dynamic theme, maybe until the 31 it will be locked(?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the GAME.es online store. From what I know, they are the only ones that did it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majob Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Similar to how GameStop here released DOOM Eternal a day early, most likely trying to get as many sales in as possible before the lockdown happens. Definitely no early release for the US from the looks of things as I still haven't been charged for my copies and the digital download still won't start until the 29th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisty123 Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share Posted March 25, 2020 Yeah any DLC or codes are not active, even the digital version is still a pre-order for us, it was only the physical that was released early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sona_11 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 You're so lucky !! I still need to wait until mid-April to play it ... since i pre-ordered it from Amazon and they seem to delay orders due to flight cancellations and border restrictions ?

Z1MZUM Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Released early due to coronavirus. I just bought a JP copy in Okinawa Am off to EB to get the Limited Edition now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rias Gremory Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 It's kind of sad how people in other countries didn't get the same treatment despite and regardless of the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) situation going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
