It states:
Although the global release date for Resident Evil 3 remains April 3rd, 2020, some European markets may experience delayed deliveries or availability of physical goods, including disc copies of the games.
While this isn’t a surprise, with Final Fantasy VII Remake expecting similar physical delays, it may see an increase in digital sales across the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live, for Resident Evil 3.
Resident Evil 3 will still arrive digitally on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC on April 3rd, with only physical copies possibly expecting delays.
