The day when “Kingdom Hearts III” is released has been a dream for many fans of the series who have been waiting for more than a decade for this to happen. As such, there would naturally be a lot of excitement whenever the title is involved in any kind of product promotion. This is why GameStop is currently in the middle of a gamer outrage maelstrom after it canceled pre-orders for a special edition PlayStation 4 Pro of the game.
As Comic Book reports, GameStop stepped on the tails of a lot of customers when it canceled the pre-orders for the “Kingdom Hearts III” PlayStation 4 Pro. This is bad for many reasons but the biggest of them is the fact that the console is already sold-out and it is very hard to find. This makes sense, of course, since it is a special edition game box of a highly anticipated title.
This is also why many fans who were looking forward to “Kingdom Hearts III” did not waste time to reserve one for themselves. It is unfortunate, therefore, that GameStop is canceling those reservations because of an error on their part. In a recent Tweet, the tech store explained that it had essentially pre-sold too many of the console.
“Due to an error, we oversold on pre-orders for the LE Kingdom Hearts 3 PlayStation 4 Pro and, unfortunately, some orders had to be canceled. Guests who had an order canceled will receive a $25 Gift Coupon. We apologize for the inconvenience and frustration this has caused,” the Tweet reads.

This resulted in gamers absolutely losing their minds. Outraged customers showed no signs of willingness to let this issue pass and many of them are blaming the company’s harmful practices as the cause of this issue. “Kingdom Hearts III” might be releasing this Jan. 29, but gamers are ready to tear apart a different kind of Heartless right now.
