Batman Arkham VR is priced between £45 and £55 for the game on disk across several UK retailers, however the PlayStation store is selling (pre-order) the digital edition of the game for just £15.99, saving £28.86 if you'd have pre-ordered it from Simply Games or Shopto, £34 from Game, £38.98 from Gamestop and finally £39 from Zavvi

I don't think those prices will be the final prices at those shops. I think they are placeholders much like the artwork. But heat added anyway because it's by far the best price :smiley:

I phoned Shopto yesterday, they said the distributor sets the RRP and they couldn't believe that the PlayStation store had it so cheap... they were told the RRP was £55 and they thought their price wasn't likely to change.

Really? That shocks me, it's supposed to be quite a short game. £55 is a lot for any title. RIGS started off at that price when it was first listed and it's now £40 on Amazon and Tesco.

Nice post.. Personally I have to get this tangibly and suck it up because I'm that kind of guy, but for folk less scrupulous this is a great deal :smiley: really got my fingers crossed on this one..

Described as "an experience" not a game. Supposed to be about 90 minutes long! If that's the case then it's overpriced at £15.99 let alone the prices retailers have it for. Shopto are full of crap if they say the rrp is £55, been confirmed as a budget release.

I fear we are gonna get ripped off so bad on these games :disappointed: hopefully the eBay market will be decent as everyone will be selling them after a day!

Plenty of time for the store to cancel the order if it's a misprice!

55 quid for a tech demo...verrrry much doubt it. 19.99 tops for it id say on physical release. More likely to be the same price as the until dawn VR game. 17.99

No way will it be £55, it will be £14.99 like the other VR games listed with the correct prices.
