Commissar SFLUFAN Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 As discovered by multiple users on ResetERA Quote Despite their detailed explanation of why they couldn't upgrade owners of the game and season pass to the Ultimate Edition, 505 Games launched Control Ultimate Edition and had accidentally upgraded owners of the Digital Deluxe edition to have Control Ultimate Edition. They state that "The upgrade path that we are offering is only possible when upgrading from the same version of the game". This error has seemly exposed that the Ultimate Edition and the base game with season pass is in fact the same version of the game. This. is. amazing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted September 10, 2020 Author Share Posted September 10, 2020 From an ERA poster: Quote I can verify that having bought the Deluxe Edition last year, I was able to hit the Ultimate Edition in the PSN store last night and it would just open the client I already have. Now it's locked, but its the same executable as the base game and season pass 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XxEvil AshxX Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 It's okay guys, it was just the House shifting momentarily to an alternate reality in which 505 Games doesn't suck ass. But we're back now. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser_Soze Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 See it's not as easy as flipping a switch because the switch keeps flipping back and they have to hire someone to constantly flip the switch. Please understand. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DPCyric Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I was excited to pick up Control for next gen but not after this shit I really hope journalists rake them over the coals for this... maybe it's time for M$ to purchase Remedy? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heydude93 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I mean it sucks, but if buying a second copy for PS5 also buys the chance of a sequel or new Alan Wake game, I'm for it I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's even more sad somehow is Borderlands 3 is offering a free upgrade even though Pitchford really fucking sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heydude93 Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 So if you already have the one from launch day, you can't download the ultimate edition? You can't even get access to a next gen upgrade? Yeeeaah everyone by now knows they're being as anti-consumer as possible so it seems the best thing they could do is just admit they fucked up and provide an upgrade for all editions of the game.
