Blizzard shows customer friendliness. Those who purchased a digital version of WoW: Battle for Azeroth and now want the Collector’s Edition will receive a credit.
The purchase of a Collector’s Edition of World of Warcraft has always been associated with some issues with various expansions: There are often pre-order bonuses that entice players to buy a digital copy of the next addon right after the announcement.
It was the same with Battle for Azeroth. Those who pre-ordered the new addon months ago were able to access some Allied Races and thus already play some content of the new expansion.
Collectors of the physical Collector’s Edition were frustrated. Because who would want to buy the digital version when they plan to purchase the big box with the actual goodies later?
We have listed all the goodies included in the Collector’s Edition here for you.
This time Blizzard has thought of exactly these players!
Upgrade to Physical Collector’s Edition Grants Blizzard Credit
Those who redeem the code for the physical Collector’s Edition and have already purchased a digital version will receive the purchase price of the digital version as Blizzard credit!
However: Those who also performed the “Deluxe Upgrade” directly with the purchase of the digital version will also only receive the purchase price of the standard version of Battle for Azeroth as credit.
Blizzard credit can be used for all kinds of purchases in Battle.net – such as character services, purchasing mounts in the shop, or even content for other games, such as loot boxes in Overwatch or Heroes of the Storm.
This offer is only valid until December 31, 2018. Those who redeem a code for the Collector’s Edition after that will not receive a refund for the purchase price of a digital copy. But most WoW fans probably won’t hesitate to redeem in time.
Are you buying the physical version of the Collector’s Edition? Will you make use of this “refund service”?
