Sony is trying really fucking hard to piss off PC players, right as they were warming up to playstation games coming to PC.

They're the reason I moved away from Playstation to PC.

Keysites still have it for about what the original was going for on an average sale. Then you can do an upgrade to the remaster for $15 so it's like 50% less than buying the new remaster.

When I check it in a private tab it seems you can only buy it in a bundle with the Remaster - which of course requires the PSN account. Scum move for sure.

~~Hum, they both show up to me in the EU.~~

Edit: on Epic Games the remaster shows up, not the original version; on Steam I can only buy the bundle with the Complete Edition and the Remaster.

I think you can still get the normal version through a code. There should be some for the old game. Plus releasing a remaster 4 years later is kind of dumb.

Yes, but you can no longer buy just the "complete edition". The only way to get and play zero dawn on PC right now, is to buy the bundle that also comes with a preorder of the upcoming, more expensive, remastered version.

Zero Dawn just shows the page but can only buy Forbidden West for me.

[–] BlackEco@lemmy.blackeco.com 2 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Both Zero Dawn and Forbidden West have buttons to add to cart

[–] DarkThoughts@fedia.io 1 points 1 month ago

Only in a bundle with the Remaster for me.

[–] ABCDE@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Zero Dawn you can't.

[–] MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I can only add a bundle to cart, one which includes both zero dawn and its upcoming "remastered" version. I can't buy just Zero Dawn.

Are you sure you can still buy the actual normal "complete edition" that came out on PC years ago, and not this more expensive bundle?

[–] BlackEco@lemmy.blackeco.com 1 points 1 month ago

No you're right, I can only buy the bundle. I was expecting the page to throw a 404.

[–] 2xsaiko@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 month ago

It’s marked as preorder (didn’t this already come out a while ago? maybe not on PC) but yeah, I can buy it too in Germany.
