Valve is reaching out to users in seven countries (opens in new tab) to ask them to cancel and renew their preorders for Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered, after asserting that the unique—fairly excessive—costs for the sport in these territories have been incorrectly assigned.
The affected international locations have been the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Switzerland, Israel, Norway, and Poland. Customers in these international locations with Spider-Man preorders might want to cancel their unique buy and make a brand new one to benefit from the corrected, decrease costs that are actually in operation.
We’re not simply speaking about a couple of pennies right here, both. Steam users were pretty upset (opens in new tab) when the unique costs have been revealed, and it seems that they had some extent. Anybody reordering the sport at its cheaper price stands to save lots of a good chunk of change (round $12/£10, in many of the affected international locations).
Should you’re a proud proprietor of a Spider-Man preorder who lives outdoors these seven international locations, you are out of luck. The erroneously excessive costs solely affected customers in these territories, so for those who’re hoping for an opportunity to save lots of just a few {dollars}, gained, or yen in your buy, you are going to should root round for a sale as a substitute. Nonetheless, at the least you do not have to undergo the rigamarole of a cancellation and reorder.
Spider-Man is promising to take full advantage of the PC’s capabilities (opens in new tab) now that it is free of its unique console, and it lastly comes out on August 12. I am to see how good it appears in comparison with its PS5 iteration, however principally I simply wish to know if it should presage the discharge of different Sony titles that have been conspicuously absent from last year’s big Nvidia leak (opens in new tab).
