Many NZ retailers have broken the street date for Rugby League Live 4 already. This is a slight problem because the day-one patch is not available to download yet.
The official Rugby League Live 4 Facebook page posted a message to alert early buyers. It says some features of the game might not be up to par until the first patch is available. You can read the message below.
It appears New Zealand has broken the street date for Rugby League Live 4. Unfortunately, we are not big enough to have our own office in NZ and the relationship we have with our distributor is that of “Seller” and “Buyer”, in other words, once they buy the goods, they can do anything they want. This would have been all good if the game did not rely on external servers or day one patches but these don’t become active until the 28th of July.
We urge all Australian fans not to buy it from NZ as the game will NOT work properly until the 28th of July and for our Kiwi fans who have purchased an early copy, please be patient until the 28th for everything to become active. Sincerest apologies, Sebastian Giompaolo.
As posted above, the first patch will not be available until the end of the month. If you own the game already, just be aware of this.
