Blockbuster UK will now honour Xbox One and PS4 pre-orders

Blockbuster UK has announced that it's now able to honour Xbox One and PS4 pre-orders.

In late October the firm entered into administration for the second time this year, resulting in the cancellation of Xbox One and PS4 pre-orders. However, the company said today that Xbox One and PS4 units have now been put aside for its pre-order customers. Its full statement follows below.

"We are pleased to announce that both Microsoft and Sony have set aside Xbox One and PlayStation 4 Day 1 consoles for Blockbuster customers who have valid pre-orders.

"To ensure Microsoft and Sony supply you with your console please complete the form at the following link by midnight on Thursday 7th November - http://survey.blockbuster.co.uk/s3/nextgen.

"Only Blockbuster customers with VALID pre-orders should complete this form. You will only receive the console you pre-ordered, including those who have ordered one of the exclusive 'Day One' edition Xbox One consoles. You will also have the opportunity to request a PlayStation 4: Killzone Shadowfall bundle.

"On submission of the form, Blockbuster will verify your pre-order and will pass your details on to Microsoft or Sony, who will contact you directly to arrange payment and fulfil of your order."

Microsoft has confirmed a Xbox One release date of November 22, 2013. The European PS4 release date is November 29.

VANAGON Blockbuster doesnt exist in the us haha.
Apparently they're huge in the US?


They were huge.
Nearly all of the stores went bankrupt and it is nearly impossible to find a still open store.

They are doing this to avoid hundreds and maybe even thousands of lawsuits.
Obviously they made the right decision.

LaserShow My only thought when reading this; Who the hell still preorders things at Blockbuster?

Well when you think of it Blockbuster would of been one of the last places to stop accepting pre-orders seeming that it's not too popular
