FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions!

Orders

When will my order ship?

We typically ship orders within 2-3 days of receiving them if the games are immediately available. Orders will ship only once all items within it are available.

Our Switch releases arrive with us approx. 8 weeks after release.

As soon as we have confirmed dates for games arriving with us, they will ship as quickly as possible. We will also ensure this page is regularly updated.

For all the latest game shipping dates please check our 'Shipping Dates' page on our store .

Once your order is shipped you'll receive an email confirmation and if it's sent with a tracked service, you'll also receive a link to track the delivery. These can be found on our accounts page.

If you still have questions about when your order will ship, please email us at help@SuperRareGames.com and let us know your name and order number and we will get back to you to help resolve it.

Can I cancel my order?

We can cancel your order as long as we receive notification prior to the order being fulfilled. To cancel your order email us at help@SuperRareGames.com and let us know your name and order number. If your order has been shipped then we cannot cancel the order.

I'd like to combine my orders to save on shipment costs, is that possible?

Unfortunately we are no longer able to combine orders due to changes on our internal systems.

We are able to cancel any unfulfilled orders and provide a full refund so that you can place a new order with the correct items that you want in one order.

If any of the items in your order are now showing as out of stock, we will do our best to set the order for you to purchase.

For any queries on this please email us at help@SuperRareGames.com and we will do our best to help.

I need to change the shipping address on my order, how do I do that?

As long as the order hasn't already been fulfilled or processed, we can update an address for you. Just email us at help@superraregames.com with the order number and the new address and we can amend it.

I live in the USA, will I have to pay tariffs on my deliveries?

Since the 1st September, following the changes in the US tariff rules, we are now charging duties on all US orders at checkout and shipping all orders with a Delivery Duty Paid (DDP) service so that no further delivery fees are due on receipt of your order. This applies to orders of any value.

I live in the EU and can see I'm being charged a duty charge at checkout, what is this?

Since the 1st July 2026, following the introduction of the Small Parcel Tax across EU countries, we are now charging duties on all EU orders at checkout . There is a €3 charge per customs code item in the order, however, it will be charged in GBP and it is automatically calculated by our website.

I received the wrong items, what should I do?

If you receive the wrong items please email us at help@SuperRareGames.com with your order number, details of what you have received and photos of the packaging and contents. We will arrange for the correct items to be sent to you and provide you with instructions to return the incorrect items.

Important information for customers in Brazil - We no longer ship to Brazil

Unfortunately, we’ve been experiencing ongoing difficulties with shipping orders to Brazil this year.

Many orders have been returned multiple times, and customers are being charged extremely high fees to have their packages released.

We don’t believe it’s fair for our customers to face these unexpected costs, so we’ve made the difficult decision to pause shipping to Brazil for now.

We are advising customers from Brazil to use an alternative address outside of Brazil to have their orders shipped there.

We know this isn’t ideal, and we’re truly sorry for the inconvenience. Please know that we’ve tried several different solutions, and we’ll continue working to find a reliable way to resume shipping as soon as possible.

My game was cancelled without me requesting it, why is this?

Very occasionally, we receive orders that are flagged as being at high risk of ‘fraud’. In these circumstances we will review the details and cancel those orders. Please get in touch with us if you believe your order was mistakenly identified as fraudulent and cancelled, as we can look into these on a case by case basis.

You don’t have the country I want on your shipping list - can you add it?

We ship to lots of countries internationally, but if your country is missing, contact us at help@SuperRareGames.com and we will look into adding it for you – we are adding countries all the time!

I made a mistake when I placed my order, can you change it and refund me if necessary?

We can cancel items and provide a refund as long as your order has not been fulfilled or be 'in progress'. Email us at help@SuperRareGames.com, as soon as you have placed your order/realised your mistake to ensure we can help out.

If you have mistakenly not included an item in your order, please email us and we will be able to work out the best way to resolve the issue.

I'd like to update the email address on my account, how do I do that?

Please email us at help@SuperRareGames.com with the details of the old and new email account and we will update it for you.

How can I change the password on my account?

Please email us at help@SuperRareGames.com and we will send you a password reset email so you can get that changed.

Delivery

I have a problem with my shipment tracking number, what should I do?

Within the first 24-48hrs the trackers can be a little bit slow in registering, particularly over the weekend, so if your tracker doesn't work straight away don't worry, it usually registers after this time.

If there are no updates on the Royal Mail tracking link, we'd advise International customers to try their tracking number on their local postal service tracking website (e.g. USPS for US, Correos for Spain etc.) as they tend to have more up to date in-transit information to monitor delivery, just whilst Royal Mail are still resolving their issues following the cyber attack in January.

If your tracker is still not working, then please email us at help@SuperRareGames.com and we will look into shipment details for you and monitor it. In the vast majority of cases where a tracker isn't working the orders will still be delivered.

I have a tracking number but don’t know which shipment company to use to monitor my order?

If your shipment is sent with Royal Mail, then please use Royal Mail Track and Trace service https://www.royalmail.com/track-your-item#/ Simply enter your tracking number into their query form and it will show the tracking details. Once the order reaches the destination country (if overseas), shipments will then be tracked by the local postal service, so click ‘Continue Tracking’ to see more recent local tracking information.
If your package looks like it's got stuck en route but is in your country, then it's best to contact your local postal service e.g. USPS, Correos, Canada Post, to see if they can help. Usually the local postal tracking website can also be used to monitor the delivery, you simply use the same tracking code we use with Royal Mail.

Alternatively, if you are in the EU or have a large item order, you may have a Fed Ex tracking number - they typically start with the number 28... you can track Fed Ex shipments via their tracking link https://www.fedex.com/en-gb/tracking.html

My game has arrived damaged, what should I do?

Damage to items you receive is treated on an individual basis, so please email us at help@SuperRareGames.com and we will review it. Please provide us with your name and order number plus photos of both the damage to the game and the original shipment packaging your game was sent in as that helps us to review the case.

Do you deliver to a PO Box number or Packstation

We do typically deliver to these locations, however, the new Fed Ex DDP shipping service does not deliver to Packstation addresses in Germany and FedEx do not deliver to PO Box addresses in the US/Canada.

We would recommend you use residential/office addresses where possible to avoid issues.

I am in the EU but my shipping options do not include a DDP service - why is that?

Unfortunately there are some countries where Royal Mail do not provide a DDP service, so we use a DDU (Delivery Duty Unpaid) service instead.

Customers who have only the DDU service should be aware that they may be asked to pay VAT/Duty charges on delivery.


Any issues around this please do get in touch with help@superraregames.com and the team will help out.

What is your Returns Policy?

We allow returns if you contact us within 14 days of receiving the order, as long as the items are unopened, unused and the seal on the wrapping intact.
Please contact us at help@SuperRareGames.com to notify us that you wish to return the order. You then have 14 days from that point to return the game to us. The cost of returning the order is your responsibility.

Once we have received and checked the game is re-sellable we will issue a full refund for the item excluding the original shipping costs.

My order was returned to sender, what should I do?

If an order is returned to us for any reason, such as an incorrect shipping address or failed collection, we will contact you and offer to resend the order to you, but we will have to charge a re-shipping fee.
We will hold returned orders for up to 1 month, and if we have not had a response from customers in that time, we will refund the order, excluding shipping costs.

Waiting List

Do you have waiting lists for releases that are out of stock?

We do now offer waiting lists on our most recent past releases which are sold out.

If you are interested in joining it, please email into us at help@superraregames.com and we will add you to the list.

If a game becomes available due to returns/cancellations we will contact you directly.

How do I sign up to the mailing list?

That's easy, you can sign up to the mailing list by clicking 'Sign up' at the very top of our website and filling out the details - ensure you tick the 'I want to receive newsletter' button. Then you're set to receive all the latest SRG news and updates.

General SRG Questions

Why is there a 2 game limit on your website?

We take this approach due to the rarity of the games that we release. We want to enable as many customers as possible to buy our games directly instead of seeing them sold at inflated prices on the secondary market. That's why we limit it to 2 games per release per customer.

We allow customers to buy 2 of each format per release, so if you wish to buy 2 standard games of a release and 2 steelbook games of the same release then that is permitted. However, buying 3 or more games of a single release isn't permitted.

How do I join Super Rare Games Club membership?

The club membership is an annual subscription, the most recent subscription kicked off in January 2024.

If you are interested in subscribing click here to go to the product page to sign up.

My game has arrived damaged, what should I do?

Damage to items you receive is treated on an individual basis, so please email us at help@SuperRareGames.com and we will review it. Please provide us with your name and order number plus photos of both the damage to the game and the original shipment packaging your game was sent in as that helps us to review the case.

If I add premium packaging to my order what do I get?

The premium packaging option is there to provide extra reassurance to our customers that their games will arrive in pristine condition, so it's perfect for sealed collectors. Each game will be packaged in an individual bubble bag and the outer cardboard wrap is stronger than our standard packaging so it's more robust.

Why don't you re-print games once they have sold out?

We operate in the world of Super Rare physical releases, where careful consideration is given to the number of games we produce. We believe that the typical release run of 4,000 or 5,000 games is appropriate for the rare print market and our customers, many of whom are collectors of indie games and value the rarity of the games they have in their collection.
