For you folks that just don’t have the shelf or storage space for a physical Collector’s Edition – for just $5 more than the Standard Version, you can upgrade to the Digital Slime Edition to get the 11 pieces of DLC in the physical Collector’s Edition!

  • I wanted the collectors edition initially but didn’t wan to wait for delivery when pre order on PSN got it at midnight so I just pre ordered. Now there is a digital slime edition and only five dollars more that I’d have paid. There is not a option to upgrade to collectors now. Can this be done?

  • I’ve heard that you get a static Dragon Quest Heroes PS4 theme if you purchase the Digital Slime Edition on PSN. But I didn’t get any theme. Is the theme only for preorders? I thought the offer was available for a month after the release. Can someone explain this please?

  • Umm… I filled out two support tickets with Square Enix and I haven’t received any response yet, nor has my game been upgraded to the Digital Slime Edition yet. All I’ve received is the standard –

    “We’ve received your ticket and will get back to you when possible – don’t reply to this email because it’s automated”

    However, after not even receiving a proper reply I have received a Customer Survey… Why!?

    I haven’t received any customer service yet, but I’m receiving a survey that asks how well the customer support provided was?

    I’m one of the folks that lives in Canada, had purchased the game for $74.99, only to wake up the next day and see that the Digital Slime Edition was being sold (with all the extras) for $64.99 – which is $10.00 dollars less!

    After filling out two tickets, I’d simply like to know if my game is going to be upgraded to the Digital Slime Edition at no extra charge, no bells and whistles, etc. etc.

    I cannot fill out a customer survey though until my issue has actually been dealt with through customer support though, that would defeat the purpose of filling out a support form and creating support tickets.

    • And… Thank You!

      I did receive a code to upgrade my Dragon Quest Heroes to the Digital Slime Edition.

      I went back into my email and found it in my Spam folder.

      So if anyone else had filled out a ticket for the same reason – then be sure to check your Spam folder!

      Thanks again Kaori! I greatly appreciate the help – and will definitely fill out the survey, because this is the type of customer service I (and many others) appreciate!

      Take care and have a great weekend – I know I will now!

    • You’re welcome SuperGiovanni! Hope you have a fun playing experience :)

  • I am totally loving this game!! Is the bonus DLC going to be available to purchase at some stage, as I got the physical version which only has 5 slime weapons (I don’t have internet – had a friend let me use his for updates and DLC, so can’t download an entire game) … would like to get all the extra DLC that the digital version and PlayStation+ got as well.

    • neoPraxi… that’s super awesome that you’re having fun!!! Unfortunately, the complete set upgrade only systematically works when you upgrade from standard to digital on the PSN store. :( I’m sorry about that. The only way you can get all the items physically is the Collector’s Edition.

  • I pre-ordered six or more months ago Dragon Quest (standard edtion) as soon as it was possible here in Canada and like I feared I got ripped off as well.
    Only managed to just get the game today (monday oct 19th) The total cost including the game was $120 bucks Canadian or so. $98 bucks and some stupid import charge?!? of 20 bucks. If I knew beforehand that the digital update with everything else including all the slime weapons and the 2 maps I would of gone that route. I haven’t even tried starting playing it.
    Would of been nice to know I wouldn’t have to go through this hassle to get the better version instead of what I had to put up with… :-( I’d gotten the game through the Square store too hoping to get it earlier than at the local Walmart too.
    Is there anything you can do to help?
    Regards,
    Robert.

    • I’m so sorry… this sounds like a fulfillment and delivery issue gone bad.
      Please put in a support ticket and reference “Canada Issue” along with my name (Kaori) today and they should be able to try to make it up to you. I’ll talk to them today!

    • @Kaori Takasue: Thanks! I’d filled out a support ticket and responded a few days later they gave me a code to upgrade from Standard Edition to Slime Edition. Checked my email this morning and was VERY happy to read the excellent reply from Square.
      I give them 5 Stars for helping me to recover from a bad experience!
      Thank you Kaori! and Thanks Square Support!
      You can tell them I am very happy and satisfied with them. :-)
      Regards,
      Rob.

  • I take it that the digital upgrade option won’t be going up today as planned. I’m seeing other 10/21 releases, but not it. :(

    • Hi EvilJerk, apologies for the upgrade not being up sooner. It’s confirmed that the bundle now is available in most regions. This upgrade is available for anyone who has the game whether the game was purchased physically or digitally. http://bit.ly/dqhbundle
      Thank you! :)
