it's back! the campaign that brought us butler/maid outfits and the original fat chocobo has been updated with new far eastern themed items

if you spend $19.99 or more in amazon's videogame department between now and may 8th, 2017, you will be emailed a code to redeem. all the info is here:

it should be noted, if you haven't pre-ordered stormblood yet, that qualifies, as do 60 day time cards.

I really hope they bring this to the UK, but I -really- hope they don't do the same awful magazine tie-in from before.

Three months to collect all three magazines at a cost of £15, and lots of people ended up having copies where the codes had been taken, plus the issues themselves were hard to find for a lot of people because of low circulation.

And then you email a picture of all the codes at the end, wtf?

I get that they're 'Eastern' themed, but seeing all this Sun Wukong themed gear being labeled as Eastern Journey stuff is driving me mad, since Sun Wukong is a character from Journey to the West. It's a really stupid, nitpicky thing to be annoyed by but I just am. Otherwise, the stuff looks pretty cool.

I was planning on pre-ordering Stormblood this week so this works out perfectly, thanks for the heads up.

Just FYI it looks like you will get your code 2 days after purchase, so just keep an eye out.

But weren't they going to the west from... the east?

@theht: Yeah but Stormblood is about journeying to the East, and that staff description even just has the phrase 'journey to the east' and...look, I get it. I understand why these are here, because the entire expansion is about the East and yeah Sun Wukong is a character from the East so of course you'd have his clothes present in the East. Like I said, it's totally a stupid thing that I'm even the slightest bit annoyed by this and I have no idea why I'm even irked. I totally get why this is a thing and. Man, ok I just don't know. I'm going crazy.
