It's only spelled with one "I" in Korean, We spelled it with two though because we thought it was an anagram of "mirai" back when none of us could properly translate the language. That held over until very recently when the Japanese version confirmed the Mira spelling, with English following soon after (unlike Kaioshin no Toki becoming "Supreme Kai" of Time, tho that was still sadly expected).

Flubit dropped the price from £49 (Amazon) to £44 but it still feels a bit high, so I'll just hold on.

Why thank you, this helps me greatly.
So, if you don't mind me ask, what's it for? You're gonna pre-order it?

100€ converted to £/$ and CND$ is: £78, $126 and CND$142.

I can't justify spending £78 (or £80-ish with shipping) for something like this unless it's actually somewhat of a Limited Edition print (like the Shen Long metalcase and such).

I don't know if i'm missing something, but are we able to pre-order this yet?

It looks like it's available on several amazon sites, but there are no real details, so do we know if pre-ordering now will include the bonus items or if we need to wait for it to be updated?

Thanks

I'm just saving for later, Checking prices and seeing which way of buying it is best.
I agree $126 is a bit much, But it's the cheapest one I found so far...
I can pay $126 for it but I would like to find it cheaper. Plus I get free shipping so that's a good thing.

I am very disappointed

for first time ever in the italian db videogame history, they decided to use in the trailer the wrong
adaptation of the mediast italian dub for the names of the attacks.
"onda energetica" (energetic wave) rather than Kamehameha, "cerchio magico" (magical circle) rather than kienzan..
i hope is ONLY a trailer error.. if it is not an error, i probably will choose to play the game in english or in japanese.

I did not expect this in 2014..

The SKU's a safe way of telling where's it from and if you pre-order from one of the Amazon websites that has them then even if the price increases you'll still get it for 100€ (or less) because they honour their customers (usually).
Will there be a plain, normal edition for pre-order which DOESN'T have the metal case, DLC codes or anything "extra".
Why would you want a bare bones pre-order edition? For that just wait until the game's out and then buy a standard copy that isn't the steelbook with DLC.

Well, considering the mom and dad got me a ps4 (which I can't use until Christmas), I have ps plus for two years, I'll probably just ask my godmother to pre order db xenoverse for the ps4 (might as well start stocking up on the games anyways)

The day before.

It depends on where you are planning on ordering from. I've had some issues with Gamestop on holding off on pre-ordering at the last minute before.

Amazon of France has added pictures to their product page of the Collector's Edition and it's rather confusing...
http://www.amazon.fr/Dragon-Ball-Xenove ... B00OJDEVV8

Are they implying that the Collector's Edition will come with a standard PS4 copy than the Steelbook PS4 case? I thought the Collector's Edition would get you all the fancy stuff. :crazy:

I've grew to like the Xenoverse cover as it looks totally badass and a take back to Budokai's original Japanese cover!

The gold/silver Freeza Soldier outfits are... random, to say the least. I honestly don't see them as being used other than to walk around advertising that you pre-ordered the game. :P

Still, though. I would bet anything SSJ4 Vegeta will be released as DLC--of course they're going to say it's not, otherwise there wouldn't be as much incentive to pre-order. Depending on whether the STEAM version will see a physical release (I'm rather doubtful), I'll probably end up pre-ordering anyway. :P

They need to give use the NA date already...
I need to know how i'm going to buy this game. :problem:
(Also to see if NA gets any kind of pre order bonus)

This seems like a pipe dream because knowing Bandai Namco they're decided to make "DLC" and exclusive Collector's Edition for Europe so outsiders have to import it if they want.

Just for comparison; Battle of Z and Raging Blast (RB2's "LE" was rather very poorly done) had a bit of a fancier Collector's Edition than Xenoverse.

The Collector's Editions and Limited Editions so far:

Raging Blast: Limited Edition
  • Steelbook + Booklet + Game Disc + Music CD + DLC Card
Raging Blast 2: Limited Edition
  • Standard Game Copy + Slipcover + 3D display of Gohan & Cell + Goku cel (supposedly limited to 35,000 copies) + DLC Card
Ultimate Tenkaichi: Collector's Edition
  • Standard Game Copy + Figure w/Big Box
Battle of Z: Collector's Edition
  • Standard Game Copy + Booklet + Figure + DLC Card
Xenoverse: Collector's Edition
  • Standard Game Copy + Figure w/Big Box + DLC Card
There was also Collector's Editions for Budokai 3 and Tenkaichi 3, too.

I understand that but you never know, this time could be different.
Even if we don't get something as big as the TTE we might get some kind of bonus for pre ordering.

Europe bandai is doing SSJ4 Vegeta as preorder DLC. bandai America has not announced anything yet.
Even if we get SSJ4 Vegeta in NA without pre-ordering, I still feel bad for people any other countries that may have to pre-order it just to get him...it's not right...at-least in my opinion. JUST WATCH! In NA it'll be Goku :lol: or Super Saiyan 4 Broly :P
