. @PlayStationAsia @finalfantasyvii @PlayStation @SquareEnix hi, the PSN preorder version of FF7 Remake in Asia - defaults to the Chinese/Korean version of the game, while not labeling it as such during purchase. This has left many digital preorders ending up w/different language
As the labeling was unclear, this meant that many people would have already downloaded the game via preload, started the game - only to find out that the game is only in Chinese/Korean and are unable to toggle the in-game language to English or other options.
As a frame of reference, this is how the preorder option for FF7 looks like. No language clarity - while Trials of Mana clearly states it. And even after purchase and in the product page itself, there was no language clarity whatsoever.
And nevermind just the title - it& #39;s not in the main product description either. No references to language options. You have to go the extra mile to find out it& #39;s the Chinese/Korean version.
Once the product is live and out of preorder status - then it& #39;s clear. But at that point it& #39;s too late, and many would have downloaded/started the game, or at least tried to see if they could toggle an English option. So those who decided to preorder digitally, we got screwed.
I understand there& #39;s probably been a litany of complaints and request for refund from the PS Asia FB, but I& #39;m sharing this to also highlight how easy it was to have missed that product language of choice and how it eludes us all the way till us downloading & playing.
