European fans looking forward to Resident Evil 3 Remake are going to be met with potential disappointing news as Capcom UK has announced that physical copies of the game may be delayed due to the current Coronavirus situation.

An official statement was published on the company's UK Twitter account. It clarified that even though the game is planned to release on April 3, 2020, some European markets may experience a delay of various physical goods, including physical copies of the game. Additionally, the company is keeping in close contact with distributors and local retail partners to ensure that physical copies of Resident Evil 3 Remake are available once import conditions allow for that.

Travel and import freezes/bans, quarantines and other regulations are delaying shipments for a whole bunch of stuff, including physical games. Shitsux but it it what it is.

So they maybe have to "change" the Charges with "corrected" Copies.
Digital Copies - No Problem - Physically Copies (without Internet) - "maybe" Problem....
THIS Sucks.

If that's the reason, wouldn't it be easier to just change the puzzle code/date with a day one patch? Instead of scrapping and re-printing the entire batch of disks?

After the first Patch/Update it is gone anyways.
But at first one Time you have to connect to the Internet and activate the Game.
So if you do not Update it,the Code is still there.

So they maybe changed the Installationroutine "a bit".So your FIRST have to connect to the internet and the Game do it in the "Background" while the Installation.

I do not think making new Copies is that Expensive today.Surely cheaper than getting sued later.


(Yes,it sounds very paranoid,I admit....).

Well that seriously sucks. At least we're in an age of digital gaming where one could still get it without the physical copy!
