Fanatical are currently running a Far Cry (maybe even an Ubisoft?) Sale - running for the next 8 days. Honestly no idea if the discounts are good, but compared to the prices on Steam/Epic/Ubistore, they look decent to me:
Looks like just over R200 for the Standard Edition (62% off) and just under R300 for the Gold Edition (72% off) at the moment.
The key you from Fanatical is redeemable directly on Ubi, so no weird alternate launchers and stuff that I saw some were worried about earlier in the topic.
BUT be aware that Fanatical to Ubisoft key redemption is done through your Fanatical account - you donāt get a key number to manually redeem on Ubisoft, you have to link your Fanatical account to Ubi and redeem keys that. This also means you canāt gift the game to someone else. (Iām guessing that they do it this way to stop key resellers buying up loads of the cheap keys and then reselling them).
There is no alternative to this system, so if that isnāt going to work for you, donāt buy Ubisoft games from Fanatical. Hereās a detailed how to activate keyless Ubisoft Uplay purchases from Fanatical Support. Itās a case of ābuyer be awareā
There is a Language/Currency setting that I changed right at the bottom right-hand side of the product screen, but even if I change that to US$ it still recognises that Iām in SA - in fact the only other currency besides $ that I can choose is ZAR.
Much strange. You arenāt using a VPN or something like that are you? Can you find the change currency thing at the bottom of your screen? Does it give you a ZAR option?
Damn bro. Iām so sorry I donāt join you more regularly, but Iām either busy playing something else or about to go to bed when you ask me. Sundays Iām there though.
Forgot this topic exists. Saw we were busy filling the cod cold war topic with other game chats, so going to start putting the games I have here. I have F3AR, L4D2, Battlefront 2, Busy downloading World War Z as well, so give me a shout when someone needs an extra player.
