Available on EPIC but Steam is Region Locked?

[Slaywee]

Am I missing something here? I check online the game cannot be played in region locked and G2A is not even selling it. However, on EPIC the game is available and on steamits gone from store. Anyone have any clue if its a gltich on epicsotre or there is something contract issue between Sony and Steam?

P.S. I saw tweet where Shiftup says they will work on removing region lock but i highly doubt because Sony do not care about player base.

my guess is a mistake from Sony on Steam or Epic, and i am learning more on Steam. Sony forgot that this title shouldn't be region locked and just went with their default. ooor, they mistakenly let it be listed on Epic store. idk what will happen if one buys it from Epic and then it's removed though. guess an automatic refund but it will feel awful. it's already awful waiting for it since ps5 then announcement and wishlist for pc, and then getting region locked :/

Maybe you should STFU about it being available on Epic because that is the only way I can get to play this on release. I bought Helldivers 2 then they region locked it and locked me out of the game. I don't want this to happen here too. God I swear I'm never building a digital library again. This would never happen with physical copies of games.
