PS4 20th Anniversary console: How to buy it in the UK

December 17th, 2014, 01:08 Posted By: wraggster

Sony has revealed how UK gamers will be able to buy the country's remaining stock of 20th Anniversary EditionPlayStation 4 consoles.
194 of the consoles were sold last week at a pop-up shop in London, and now Sony has detailed how users will be able to obtain one of the remaining units.

The process is rather elaborate, however, so here are the instructions directly from Sony:

1. Follow @PlayStationUK or @GAMEDigital on Twitter.

2. From Monday 15th at 11am you can head toeu.playstation.com/20yearsofcharacters and take a look at our fantastic image containing over 300 characters from PlayStation history. Study the image well and make sure you know your PlayStation characters.

3. At an allocated time each day @PlayStationUK and@GAMEDigital will tweet a clue using the hashtag #20YearsOfCharacters.
4. Solve the clue, find the character it corresponds to, zoom in so the blue cross appears and click it, if you are correct you will be given a link which will take you to a secret website by GAME. *Please note that the page will need to be refreshed at the given time before the daily link will be updated.
5. Once on the page please fill out the form with the details required. If you are in the first 100 people to submit the form you will receive an email from GAME within 24 hours of the link going live, giving you all the details you'll need to purchase your PlayStation 4 20th Anniversary Edition Console. Don't worry if you aren't in the first 100, every person who completes the form on the page before it closes will be entered into a daily prize draw and one person will be chosen at random to win a PlayStation 4 20th Anniversary Edition Console.
The consoles will be available on a first come first served basis with GAME via the application page, they will not be available fromGAME.co.uk. Don't worry if you miss it, there will be a new allocation of stock every day from Monday until Friday next week giving you five separate chances to pick-up the PlayStation 4 20th Anniversary Edition Console.
Want to know when we will be tweeting? Take a look below and get ready (all times in GMT)-
Monday 4pm
Tuesday 5pm
Wednesday 2pm
Thursday 8am
Friday 12pm

Sony stresses that GAME will only send these consoles out to UK addresses, as the UK has a set allocation of systems and this will ensure only Brits get them. Just 12,300 Anniversary Edition PS4s will be released worldwide.
"The volume is a close match with the original production run on PlayStation, so it's got a nice heritage story," PlayStation UK boss Fergal Gara said last week. "They're very rare and they're very special. If you put it into mass production you dilute that. So right now, that's it. I'm not aware of any plans to change that."
