ACIV PS4 digital version for $40

I'm not sure you can update the digital PS3 version to the PS4 version.

I have the boxed version and it has a special voucher inside you need to redeem at the PSN store order to get the discount on the PS4 version. On top of that I have to insert my PS3 disc in my PS4 if I want to play AC4, it's a failsafe method to prevent people from selling to codes.

You can update it just fine. Once you own the digital PS3 version you go into the PSN store on PS3 and find the upgrade area and it will let you pay $10 and unlock the PS4 version. I did it with BF4.

You may need to have the game to see the price, but:

Clicky here.

So you need a ps3 to make this work Im guessing?

Nope. Can redeem the code on the SEN store online.

Edit: Beaten. You can also start the download from there too if your PS4 is on standby and you have enabled it to download things in standby mode.
 
AC IV for £25.

This has been the most lucrative console launch for me ever. God I love this US Amazon digital store.

EDIT: Just done it. Marvellous. HUGE THANKS OP <3
 
Just an FYI, if you have over 100 people on your friends list, there's a decent chance the Ubisoft Uplay servers won't work, blocking you from a lot of the fleet stuff in single player.

I still can't manage my fleet. Thanks Ubisoft.

And for those of us who haven't used the $10 code that came with the P S4 it's $30!!! Great deal.

Yeah, I just redeemed my code today as I had totally forgot about it. I guess I know what I'm spending it on. The Amazon PSN store has been damn awesome.

Amazon has been killing it recently on the PSN digital scene. Loving it.

Just a matter of perspective.

I caught all the next gen sales (b2g1, 30% off etc) so I ended up getting them all for $30-40 each.

I regret getting them on discs instead of digital now Lol
 
Guys, play this game, not only is the best AC to date, it is really good on its own merits, best pirate simulator ever, and at that price for 1080P ps4 goodness, it's a steal
 
Do UK debit cards work on Amazon US? I thought I read that you needed to input the address your card is registered to on Amazon so as to prevent any fraud blocks from the bank.

So can I just put in a random US address and enter my UK debit card details to it? Same with the US SEN?

May test this out on something like Flower first.
 
Decent deal. I got it during the B2G1F deal at Target for about the same.

Honestly, this or GTA V will be my GOTY. After Revelations and ACIII, I never thought an AC game would jump up to that level again. I'm sure it's 'newness' and graphics for the PS4 version attribute to that, but I am having an absolute blast playing ACIV.

I enjoyed the story/characters of GTA V. But I love the world/exploration of ACIV ... man, open world is my favorite genre in the past couple months I've been in heaven!
 
I did this last week. Bought it my phone, upgraded through the Playstation app, which automatically started the download on PS4. I haven't even downloaded it on PS3 yet.

Yeah, just pick an address that has no sales tax. Mine is a Chinese takeaway in Idaho.

This only works on Amazon, not SEN itself. But you can buy PSN credit codes from Amazon to use on your US SEN account.

Bought Killzone, NBA 2k14 and now AC IV using this method. Just had to get a $10 PSN code for the upgrade on AC IV.

Yup, just did it all in the browser. Not even touched my PS3.
 
Cheers OP had a $5 credit due from them for purchasing BF4 as well. Loving this new gen and Amazon with their digital solution.

So far bought Knack, BF4, Lego and now AC all at under £30 each!

Can you delete the PS3 version once the PS4 version is downloaded?

You don't even have to download the PS3 version. Just redeem the code, then go buy the PS4 upgrade.

Also ------------------ PSN is having trouble redeeming codes if you do it through your consoles. However, it you can do it all through SEN online store and that works right now until the get PSN fixed.

You can ignore the PS3 version completely. The upgrade discount is automatically applied to your account after redeeming the PS3 code.

  1. Purchase code from Amazon.
  2. Redeem it on SEN.
  3. Upgrade to PS4 version via the PS4 Store or the SEN store.
  4. Download PS4 version
 
Really hoping Injustice PS3 is on one of the deals now. Fully expecting to be told it has been and gone.

EDIT: They don't do Injustice digitally. Oh well.

Just to confirm for a friend who never owned a ps3.

He'd redeem on the web store and then he can upgrade?
Click to expand...

Yup. Redeem the code then a minute or so later, the upgrade price appeared instead of "Unavailable" on the PS3 to PS4 upgrade section.

This makes me nervous of buying any redeemable code on PSN/SEN right now :S

Thanks. Now if somebody can confirm that PSN/SEN is actually redeeming codes at the actual store, I'll be good to go.

I just did it 5 minutes ago on the web store and it's presumably now downloading on my PS4.
