Apocapoop Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Hello! I'm a survivor from the UK and I had a question concerning the Collectors Edition of ARK. I'm really interested in buying it, like I assume many others would as well. But how are we supposed to pay for it? Will it be impossible for us? Will we have to search on sites like Ebay for it to be able to get our hands on it? Or will we be able to purchase it like everyone else but with international shipping? I'm wondering about my options because I'd feel very disappointed if I'm not able to purchase this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jostabeere Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 One of the devs said they will release the option for EU as soon as they get it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilMissZombie Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I've heard it will be through Argos, they currently have the Explorer edition for pre-order Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruncase Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Hi all, Any updates on this? I want the CE but don't want to order it from US via gamestop if it's going to be available from UK stores later on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky if you live in Ireland since that's the only place I can find any GameStop Sites on their map. The price is 180 EUR on the site though. I would either listen to the person who posted above you and buy from Argos or wait for the release and buy it from somebody else who would be able to ship it or post it to you possibly cheaper than the current asking price.

Hmm if it comes to it I'll pay for postage from US, just seems crazy that they don't have a retailer here in the U.K.?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck getting it then, it doesn't say how much postage is to the UK but the price I worked out in euros totals to £180 + the amount for shipping which could be anything from £20+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruncase Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Hey guys, Found a post from Jat that clears this up so thought I'd share it here: On 25/06/2017 at 1:11 PM, F1nchyStryd3r said: All very nice I'm sure...... But, when I try to buy the collectors edition, I click the choose location, but STILL there is NO UK location...... I've googled it but we can't get it in England, c'mon guys what's happening? Sick of hearing excuses That would be because we're still waiting for the UK retailer to finish setup. We're not retailers, we're developers - we work with others to get the game out there. Hopefully it'll be done soon! Chris should be posting when it's live as he handles getting it on playark.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F1nchyStryd3r Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 @Jat @Jen @Jeremy Stieglitz Still waiting for any news on the UK version of the collectors edition? So any news at all as Game and Argos haven't even heard of you. It's been over a month since the announcement. Nice way to show your appreciation to loyal gamers. NOT!!!

I have heard from somewhere, can't remember where though, that they were thinking of releasing the book, map as separate items. But I can't confirm it, it might just have been speculation. I also own the game, but if there's no other way to get it, I suppose we'll have to fork out lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Symonator Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Already got it 3 times on pc, xbox and ps4. I'd support them further after moving to ps4 for some time now but they stopped answering enquiries about servers for consoles and the support guys never reply to any tickets about in game issues.. so i won't be buying.

Administrator Jatheish Posted July 6, 2017 Administrator Share Posted July 6, 2017 The UK page should be up now, we are hoping to make the collector's edition available as a stand alone (without purchasing the game) but we'll need to see how our initial batch does. Assuming these go well, we'll be able to work with retailers to ship more out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
