we don't even have a release date...... they wouldn't be able to give you a confirmation until they know for sure. we have had physical copies of all the previous games, plus there is also this: https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/ne...hadowlands-now "In the coming months, we will announce our retail-only Collector’s Edition to commemorate the release of Shadowlands, featuring everything in the Epic Edition, and more!"

[Misshulk]

I wonder if that's going to spring up elsewhere. Has every other expansion been released physically there so far?

Yes. i have every CE since BC thus far... Other people in my guild have also gotten the same phone call this morning....

what exactly prompted these phone calls? you can't pre-order it via their website or in store yet so what was it just a bunch of people making an enquiry and getting a phone call response from that?

I can't see it on the EBGames website preorder section. odd.

[Rustedsaint]

No physical copy yet, but there probably be one down the line

[Misshulk]

EB are issuing refunds (store credits) (in australia anyway), as their wont be physical copies. I am hoping this is an Australian only thing and i can purchase a physical copy elsewhere...

Never, ever preorder a version of a game that hasn't officially even been announced or assigned a SKU yet.

that's really odd, maybe they are waiting for a release date? it is still a while off

Hi All,I not long received a call from EB games, (the main game store for my little state) telling me that my pre-order for the Shadowlands collectors edition has been cancelled because Australia wont be getting any physical copies of the game.

cheers for the link. i'll monitor that. i've also sent EB Games head office an enquiry to sus it....

Smells like some sort of miscommunication or something. No reason for them not to ship CEs to Australia if they exist, weird times we live in right now, may be hard for physical boxes to get made up.

Don't play dense please.
We know you posted that thread, and when it died, made your MMOC account and posted here.

It's a retailer. They don't know shit, especially since it is still months away either way.

No physical copies = less plastic. Sounds good to me.

[Eapoe]

I love having physical copies of things; but let’s face it, in another decade we’ll probably have nothing but digital downloads.

This is one of the good things about it.
