American division of the distribution network Amazon sent a reminder to her clients that a remake Final Fantasy VII postponed from April 10, 2023 to a later date. Players share screenshots of letters on social networks.
“Good afternoon! We regret to inform you that the release date of this product has been changed. A new delivery date will be listed below. We are sorry for the inconvenience,” the Amazon said.
In the column with the date of delivery, nothing is indicated.
Later Amazon officials reportedthat as of March 18, the terms of the game’s release by the publisher did not change, however, the distribution network delivery service in the context of the spread of coronavirus and the state of emergency declared in the USA forced to divide all products by significance level.
Amazon’s essentials are recognized as essential products in the categories of medicines, disinfectants, personal care products, and other household items. Demand for them skyrocketed after millions of people were quarantined.
Video games are temporarily considered “secondary” products. When processing orders, they are not a priority at the delivery service, so delays are possible.
Probably, in addition to Final Fantasy VII, the new policy will affect other upcoming news.
Against this background, some players already abandon their boxed pre-orders and switch to the digital version of the game. Others say they will wait for more specifics from Amazon, while others are trying to order a remake of Final Fantasy VII in other stores that are still working, like GameStop. They also hope that Square Enix will not postpone the release at the last moment, because retail for such major releases is still very important.
A few days earlier, Kotaku editor Jason Schreier had predicted the transfer of a number of major games due to coronavirus.
