    If you go to the FF7 page on their website it says "In Stock If you order now we will dispatch it tomorrow" so they're fully selling it now, any pre-orders not sent today will be sent tomorrow, along with new orders.

    Thanks it says sold out now and my order is still "processing" with shopto. Says my order date was the 1sr April but was actually last week

    Will update if that changes

    Yeah saw this also. Happy enough anyway , should be here on time

    So much for my order, it got cancelled due to them trying to take the full shipping amount for my order instead of just the shipping cost of FF VII causing my Revolut to not have enough. Had it ordered for €46 shipped too. Not pleased.

    I got the same but I had enough in it , and they still say it's refunded what a load of bollox.

    Will get onto them

    Why take the money if they just gonna refund it ?

    They said to me on twitter they are cancelling all European orders for FF VII. They said they I could reorder with my UK shipping address by opening a support ticket.

    Yup, only other options other than paying an additional €25 to GameStop are Game and Amazon, if they still have day 1 stock.

    Nowhere else shipping of note no?

    Bit disappointed suppose will just have to get at a later date.

    More annoyed they charged me to hold my funds, in order to refund me.

    Game.co.uk maybe https://www.game.co.uk/en/final-fantasy-vii-remake-654780

    They say on the site if you get it early don't spoil it. Maybe because they are shipping early?

    Disaster, sure look understandable, wish they would have said it sooner.

    Nevermind sure I will get it at some stage, could get it digital but I am old school.

    Like physical media.

    It said 8th April when I got it recently.

    Should be plenty of time. Pretty sure I have room for that and if not there is only so many games I play at one time so I don't mind clearing space if needs be

    Yupp, every part of Midgar was built with unique assets apparently, causing the large size.

    Got an email from Gamestop about my instore preorder.

    basically I can if I want preorder from online store.

    Instore preorder is gone - will get refund instore when they're back open.

    Guess it's best of a bad bunch, but wonder why instore deposit (from traded in games) couldn't be applied to online order.

    The website isn't set up to use store credit, the amount you paid will be on your GS account when reopened and any cash you added to the trade can be retrieved.

    Had this issue getting something before, store had to give me the trade value on a gift card so I could order online.

    F**k Game are out of stock and Amazon state delivery a week after release, going to have to pay GS €70 now for a game I had ordered elsewhere for €46 :(

    Just received another order update from Amazon and it's is back to the 10th again after they changed it to the 11th earlier in the week.

    It feels like they are toying with me!

    @Niska

    Just got an email off Gamestop saying my RE3 has shipped now
    anpost tracking number received

    So looks like they are posting within a day or two of receiving payment
    Might be a good chance you will get FF7 remake on launch if you paid it now

    Pre loading can be done after April 3rd. I wonder would there be a chance of getting to play it earlier than April 10th from a digital copy now seen as it's shipping physical copies earlier?

    Next to no chance they'll set a precedent of releasing digital early when street date is 'broken' (albeit somewhat authorised in this case but still)

    Square taking the mick now, I've gotten 3 emails in the last three days from SquareEnix and every one has been about blog posts or old games that have been out donkeys years. Get a quick flutter of hope every time I see the name in my inbox and they do this to me!
