    Same here, ordered yesterday and dispatched this morning. It did say it could take up to 6 days for delivery though. Hopeful of a delivery tomorrow.

    put an order in this morning after seeing yours are all shipping. Hopefully my will dispatch today. Fair play to Smyth's for keeping the warehouse open.

    Game fully downloaded for me overnight. Now it's sitting on my home screen, taunting me.

    Morning all, really happy to have found this thread. Massive fan here and regretting not pre ordering earlier but it is what it is. Can you all suggest my best way to order that will ensure I receive the game by Friday( earlier would be a bonus). Ideally would love the Deluxe Edition but will settle for the standard if needs be. Appreciate the advice and for those of you who are playing it, hope you are enjoying it.

    If you order digital it should start downloading right away, or by Wednesday at the latest. 90GB download though so depends on your internet speeds.

    Not sure about physical copies. Smyths seem to be out of stock at the moment, don't know about gamestop.

    An Post have my game now, "we are processing your item in" as of this afternoon. Fingers crossed for Tuesday delivery.

    I saw a post elsewhere about a guys thoughts on the game after clearing it. 35 hours with half the side quests done. He mentioned his feelings about it and gave a 9/10. I didn't read too much into it though as i want to know nothing about the story. I don't want to know what's different and what has stayed the same.

    May I ask where you pre ordered from?

    shopto.net. They are sold out though but expecting more copies later this week. https://www.smythstoys.com/ seems to be a good shout now though.

    Getting some high praise from the critics.

    It’s hard to elaborate without spoiling too much, so let me instead offer this: Final Fantasy VII Remake is a phenomenal game, one that any fan of the series should play.

    Unlucky me, I also ordered from ShopTo and it dispatched last week, but no sign of it today and the tracking hasn't updated with AP yet. It left the UK according to RM last Thursday late at night :(

    This is an excellent review I enjoyed reading.

    Sounds like it came out fine then. I do see some reviews mention side quests and filler but sounds also like a lot of that can be ignored.

    I'm particularly excited to see the ending of Remake play out

    Some suggestions it goes full Kingdom Hearts story-wise.

    You never go full Kingdom Hearts :pac:

    Sounds both better and worse than I had expected from the reviews. Too many games to work through at the moment, but will give it a whirl in a few weeks hopefully.

    Have any of ye cancelled a pre order with Playstation before? I pre ordered digitally last Friday but made sure to turn off 'Auto Download' so it does not pre download as I have also ordered from Gamestop(Physical). Am I good to hold off until later in the week to cancel digital if needs be?

    Reviews are all savage so far. Wasn't expecting anything less.
