Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition Release Problems Plague Buyers

If you pre-ordered the Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition now would be a good time to check your order because some buyers are running into problems with their shipment ahead of tonight’s Fallout 4 release date for Xbox One, PS4 and PC.

The Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition went on sale at the same time as the regular version of the game. But unlike the regular version of Fallout 4, the Pip Boy Edition sold out within days as buyers scrambled to acquire Bethesda’s real-life Pip Boy.

There is no way to pre-load the Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition which means that buyers must wait until November 10th to use the Pip Boy app and the accessory with Bethesda’s latest installment in the Fallout series.

And thanks to some problems at retailers, it looks like some Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition buyers might have to wait a little longer than that.

Some Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition buyers are reporting issues with their shipment. A number of buyers are saying that their orders have been delayed and others are saying that their Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition order has been cancelled.

These Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition release date problems are plaguing buyers at Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, and Walmart.

@GameStop ordered Pip-Boy Edition on 6/23 w/ overnight shipping. I guess it was a surprise to you. Good looking out. pic.twitter.com/dre06BpdrA

Really upset that @GameStop isn’t delivering my Fallout 4 Pip-Boy Edition on release day even though I payed for the one day shipping.

@GameStop Why has my Fallout 4 pip-boy edition, which I ordered in June right after the announcement, suddenly been delayed? — Draco Deathclaw (@falloutlsd) November 10, 2015

I don’t even know if and when I’ll be able to play Fallout 4 since Best Buy cancelled my Pip Boy Edition order lel — A S0UR TAC0 (@AS0URTAC0) November 10, 2015

@Walmart Thanks for cancelling my Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition Pre-orders. Then insulting my by offering me 10% off my next order. — Chris Brown (@CBrown3042) November 7, 2015

Big thanks @Walmart for cancelling my now sold-out #Fallout4 Pip-Boy edition 9 days before launch. You clearly value customer happiness. — Katherine Kovac (@KKovac) November 6, 2015

God DAMMIT @Walmart! Canceling my Fallout 4 PS4 Pip-Boy Edition *FOUR DAYS* before ship was a really, REALLY crappy thing to do! #neveragain — Morgan Schweers (@cyberfox) November 6, 2015

It’s not clear why some of these Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition orders have been changed though some customers report that it’s because they didn’t update their credit card information. Those of you that haven’t seen your credit card charged just yet should remain patient. There’s still time and many shipments may not start moving out until tonight or tomorrow morning. Some Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition buyers claim that orders have already started arriving on doorsteps.
