Damn you, Perpetual! *fist shake*

Due to issues with getting the canceled Gods and Heroes pre-orders sorted out, the Pirates of the Burning Sea pre-orders were regrettably pushed back to November 13th. An apology on the main site explains everything.

While we thought the preorder boxes would hit stores this week,unfortunately the PotBS preorder box is being delayed until the week of November 13th.

We’re really sorry for the confusion, but we’re fixing it and then we can get the boxes in your hands.

Our friends at SOE are also very sorry. This has been a difficult week for them as most are working remotely out of hotel rooms and friends’ houses safely away from the fires. Some are getting back into the office today, and with their help we were able to sort out the issues involved in the preorder delay.

Before the preorder release date, we’ll make sure we have all the information you need: when the boxes will be in stores, what stores you can find it in, and where you can order the preorder box online. These are the three big questions you’ve been asking on our forums, and now that not quite so many things are burning (!) we will be able to get you those answers in time for the release.

Read the rest at the official Burning Sea site.
