Players who bought the deluxe version of SIFU can theoretically access the game 48 hours in advance of the official launch date of February 8th as a bonus feature. However, the PlayStation version had an issue, preventing players from downloading or unlocking the game.
SIFU is a highly anticipated action game where the player is a martial artist who uses traditional Chinese Kung fu to defeat enemies and is trying to reveal the secret behind a murder from ten years ago.
At this moment, the developer Sloclap said they have already solved the issue, yet there are still many players commenting under the official Twitter account that they can’t download the game and play it in advance.
The PlayStation teams have told us the early access issue is now resolved, and the game can now be downloaded! Again, we're very sorry to all players who were hoping to play earlier today, we'll have an exclusive gift for all Deluxe edition holders to share with you soon !

Sloclap claims there will be an exclusive gift for all deluxe version holders very soon as compensation for the delayed unlock of the game.
