From the sounds of it you wouldn't need to choose anyways, apparently the physical comes with a gamecard AND a voucher for the digital version.

I didn't know. Good to hear though.

 

[Sora_N]

So is the PS4 version not full? I'm confused.

demo the unlock code is separate.

Not full, mislabeled demo, but getting this would allow you to buy a cheaper PS4 copy using this link: https://store.sonyentertainmentnetw...tion/cid=EP4433-CUSA00265_00-MINECRAFTPS4ED02

Yeah, pretty cool of them.I will end up buying the physical version as well and probably either sell or giveaway the voucher

Cool, thanks for the info! I'll just play on PS3 since I wouldn't add money to my random EU account.

 

[Visualante2]

Thanks OP

 

[alexbull_uk]

Works. I've now got it on my Vita, and the PS4 edition is showing as £3.69.

 

[Stilton Disco]

Nice! Was planning on getting the retail Vita version, then PS4 unlock, but I'll trade having a nice case on my shelf for paying nothing any day!

 

[legacyzero]

EU only? NOOOOOO

 

[boingball]

Thanks, worked for me on the german store.

 

[Canis lupus]

You can do it. just add ps3 version to your download queue then download psvita demo and continue from there

Thanks it worked.

PS4 version is a demo btw, you can unlock it for EUR3.99 which I did, but the game still shows up as trial on PS4 and the PS Store says I already bought it. Are you supposed to get 100kb file like on ps3?

 

[friskykillface]

bleh got my hopes up when entering the thread

EU only makes me

 

[Garrett Hawke]

I swear Sony has issues like this way too often. I wonder why :/

 

[Hitokiri03]

Poor guy who is responsible for this.

The Killzone SF bug was fine, since it was in house, but now Sony will have to pay to Microsoft for this.

 

[Stike]

I felt bad after doing that. So I insta-bought Styx for my conscience. I heard it is a good game anyway, so, why not...

 

[ferrasvansen]

I got the vita version, considering I've paid for minecraft on ps4,pc x 2,tablet x 2,xbox 360 x 2 I think guilt won't be an issue for me.

 

[MUnited83]

Seems like the way they code the cross-buy eligibility is slightly flawed and many times it will give the full versions for free if you download a trial/demo when the game just started to be cross-buy.

 

[Cookie18]

Yay got it! It also said I could get the PS4 version for free after this. Added it just in case but dunno if that worked.

 

[Dragun619]

From the US, Used my Eu account, and it works. Downloading it on my PS3.

Do you guys know if I can transfer the UK vita version to a US account PS Vita?

 

[data]

Weird, I downloaded both demos then tried to redeem the complete PS3 version, and it said it was unavailable for half an hour. Now I tried again and it went to my cart.

 

[lowrider007]

Thank you! first time I've actually got in on one of these errors, downloading the Vita version now and look forward to playing for the first time.

 

[Mr Git]

Holy shit. This worked, all versions. Thank you OP, felt dastardly, mind.

 

[Chezzymann]

Goddamnit, the title made me dive for my Vita. Now I'm depressed. Screw the US.

 

[Hamster Plugin]

It's an incorrectly labeled demo. There's a separate "unlock key" for the PS4 version which you can get for a discount for owning the PS3/Vita versions.

I thought as much. Will definitely pay for the unlock key for my PS4 then. Can't argue with that.

 

[FranXico]

A couple of weeks ago, the same thing happened with Don't Starve Vita. If you happened to "own" Don't Starve for the PS4 via PS+, you would have been able to download the Vita version for free, and own it forever (I double checked the license info, it has no time limit).

 

[mandiller]

Thanks OP. Worked fine. Free PS3/Vita version and cheap PS4 version.

 

[Gong]

Thanks OP, just downloaded it to my Vita

 

[Chezzymann]

Is it possible to make a fake EU account and then download it to my vita?

 

[keit4]

It worked for me. Thanks for the heads up OP.

I believe that still happens. The game is supposed to be cross-buy, but because the cross-buy was added way after the PS+ period, it grants you a free ownable forever version.

Well, yeah, but you would have to use that account to play it. You couldn't use your US account at the same time.

Ugh, that's dumb. I wish they would let you play any game on the system regardless of which account is signed in.

 

[Infernal Monkey]

Worked here (AU), thanks!

They mentioned the Vita version would be cross buy, but yea, that's kinda cool to see it added to our account permanently rather than to our PS Plus list.

[Chezzymann]

Hmm, what would you do about the billing information though? Not sure what to do about address stuff when creating a fake EU account. Use a random houses address? That seems kinda shady.

 

[saturnine]

FR here, it worked.
Bought the PS4 version for 4€ to ease my consciousness. I'm too good for my own sake.

 

[YoodlePro]

It worked! Hopefully I don't get banned. I have a nice backlog of ps plus games. Don't want to lose it.

 

[FranXico]

Actually, I am wondering, since PS+ combined with cross-buy causes these glitches, is it the same with paid upgrades?

I wouldn't mind buying Guacamelee PS4 using the PS3 to PS4 upgrade.

 

[Chezzymann]

what are the chances of getting banned for making a fake account to do this?

 

[Afrit]

Thanks, it worked!

But now I feel morally bad.. :/
..must go and donate the money to someone..

No, you can't. You must use UK account to play this game on Vita.

 

[MUnited83]

Exactly zero.

If you are asking if buying the PS3 to PS4 upgrade for you PS3 Guacamelee(which you got on PS+ presumably) will grant you a PS4 version that you own forever, then yes, that what should happen.

0.000001%

I see. Thanks for the reply.

[Chezzymann]

How do you redeem the code for the vita version? I don't have a PS3 :X

 

[MUnited83]

For the PS3 dudes from the US, you can easily create a EU account, do this and download the game. You are then able to play it on your US account.

How do you redeem the code for the vita version? I don't have a PS3 :X

Check the op. Use the webstore and the steps I mentioned. You don't need a PS3 for that.

 

[poopninjamvc3mk]

Thank god I made a random eu account for nothing 2 years back, now I can least have it free on PS3

You didn't get an unlock file for the ps4 version did you?
