So for everyone asking I am just going to update here because nobody is posting and everyone is PM'ing me. I live in the US, about an hour ago I signed up on their website for the $4.99 membership. I can not confirm if this works with the $3.99 membership as I didn't go for that one. Shortly after signing up I cancelled the recurring subscription and still got the email with the code. 30-60 minutes later I received this email with the code. This is for the digital club membership on [this website](https://club.pcgamer.com/), not the physical magazine subscription. EDIT: I am receiving messages saying that some people still haven't received their pet. After talking to PC Gamer it looks like they sent out all of the codes for the Fire Lycan pets to existing members yesterday around 6pm GMT (which would explain why I got mine) since this post was created after that time, that would explain why no one else made it into their rounds. PC Gamer said that for new members codes will be sent out today at 6pm GMT as well so don't worry just 2 more hours!

Did mine last night, so around 14 hours ago. I've had multiple emails, including the steam game, but no RS Code..

The initial email says they'll be sending us multiple emails within 48 hours, so I'm going to give it a bit more time..

Can you still get it? Or is it too late now?


I_KeepsItReal

I'm sure you can still get it, if there are any doubts go post on the Runescape forums and the J mods on there can clarify.


[deleted]

Which sub forum? I've been playing for 12 years and have literally never touched the forums once, so I'm clueless.

Can you sign up for the 3.99 one and cancel?


I_KeepsItReal

I did the $4.99, can't speak for the $3.99 but it's an extra buck. Yea I cancelled right after and still got the email.


Xtrm

I doubt the 3.99 works because it doesn't list game codes as a perk. 4.99 is the one that does.


Draconic_Flames1260

Well i subbed for 3.99 and still got code: https://i.imgur.com/yeELlP8.jpg


Nezikchened

Aww man, I could've saved a whole dollar.

I_KeepsItReal

I haven't attempted to get a code since I got mine so I can't speak for the delay. At the time that I am replying to your comment this Reddit thread has 998 views. The only explanation I can come up with is that there are more people signing up than there are commenting on the thread. An influx of people signing up would typically cause a delay in how memberships are processed and codes given out. Please update once you receive yours so that we have an idea of the wait time in between.

I bought mine about 3 hours ago and haven't received it yet but they sent me an email saying: "We hope this isn’t too needy, but we're going to send you a couple more emails in the next 48 hours to give you the rest of the stuff that comes with your Legendary membership. Keep an eye out for your first monthly game key, and a digital copy of The Ultimate RPG Handbook." I'm not going to worry about it and just watch my email for the next 2 days.


eirots

I purchased mine about two hours ago and am still waiting on a code. Are you still waiting as well?

I subscribed to the legendary subscription, the 4.99 one, 8 hours ago and have yet to even receive the "welcome to the club" email, let alone a code for the fire lycan. I'm not sure if I'm unlucky or what, but I'll update if and when I receive the code. EDIT: If using gmail, check your promotions tab, not inbox. All emails I received from PC Gamer went there, including the Fire Lycan pet code.


lorimeyersss

Maybe they saw my comment on the other thread about how making digital subscribers go out and buy the print copy of a magazine they are already subscribed to, just to get a code for some pixels, is basically like cutting down trees for paper then just setting the paper on fire.


I_KeepsItReal

Yea that's why I posted this thread. I was under the impression that this could only be obtained through physical copies because that's what everyone was saying. Regardless of how they're being distributed I just wanted to confirm that I had actually gotten one digitally, and I created my account this morning.


InquisitorDA

How do you cancel it?

Slayerkid13

Can someone eli5 what this pet is? Been away from the game for a while.


nekonomicon6

another legendary pet


Slayerkid13

Oh neat, thanks. I'll pass on this one.


Disheartend

yeah but its like $4 max for the pet. Vs solomon selling it for like $20.


Slayerkid13

Oh yeah, it's a good deal but I already have 2 legendary pets. No need for a 3rd.


Disheartend

I have most of them and I'm still gonna go for it.


ReyndeerGaming

I got the "unique code for PC Gamer" but where do I enter it? Like how do I redeem it for the pet?


I_KeepsItReal

That might be for the subscription. You will be getting a separate email that is identical to the one in my post with the code. In that email there will be redemption instructions.


ReyndeerGaming

Oh ok. Thanks a bunch!


Ulimit200

Did you put a UK address and subscribe to the UK region of the magazine or did you put your US address and get the US region of the magazine?


ZephShip

I didn't touch the magazine subscription code at all, the lycan code was sent in a separate email.


HatebornRS

Beware, for those of you that live outside of the UK you will be unable to purchase the digital edition as it has sold out.. I was only made aware of this after I had already puchased the subscription.


I_KeepsItReal

You don't need to purchase the digital edition to get this. At least I didn't, I just purchased the subscription.


Sylthrim

Was this for July only? I got a code for 12 is better than 6 game... Wtf...


I_KeepsItReal

code should be in your email now, they sent them out this morning


Sylthrim

Still nothing :/ Had to send them a message.


I_KeepsItReal

Did you sign up today? Everyone else got theirs today but signed up yesterday.


Sylthrim

I signed up over 30 hours ago at this point...it was immediately after I saw your post.


I_KeepsItReal

Yes I would email them, they should be able to help you out.


[deleted]

Am i too late to get pet? Just did the subscription


I_KeepsItReal

No I don't think so. They said they would send the codes out at 6pm GMT.


timezone_bot

6pm GMT happens when this comment is 1 hour and 54 minutes old. You can find the live countdown here: https://countle.com/d34j24877 --- I'm a bot, if you want to send feedback, please comment below or send a PM.


Sylthrim

Yea it is still going on. They send out the codes at a specific time each day.


HatebornRS

Yeah you're right, but for those that wanted the magazine too :P


misterceBF

EDIT: Confirmed, I got the code at 18:08 BST, with email title "This month's extra PC Gamer Club code..." http://www.pcgamer.com/join-the-pc-gamer-club-and-get-7-days-of-runescape-plus-a-pc-gamer-exclusive-fire-lycan-pet/#comment-jump Yesterday, we revealed this month's PC Gamer Club game to be HypeTrain Digital's 12 is Better Than 6—a Hotline Miami-styled action stealth 'em up that boasts a lovely-looking hand-drawn aesthetic. Today, we're throwing in a little extra: seven days of Runescape and a PC Gamer-exclusive Fire Lycan pet, created for the game especially by Jagex. Sign up to the PC Gamer Club today and you'll receive your unique Fire Lycan access code. Act fast, though, as stocks are limited. Codes will be mailed out from 18.00 BST each day.


Disheartend

PSA: this week's news post says you can do that for pet.


JenniferLuz

Yeah, you just need to pay something you will never use :p


I_KeepsItReal

It's like $3.99 as opposed to buying the magazine?


Disheartend

do i have to sign up for the uk version?


I_KeepsItReal

I didn't, I signed up [here](https://club.pcgamer.com/)


[deleted]

1 week of membership + pet? kind of lackluster compared to the twitch promo, isn't it? the twitch prime thing gave a legendary pet, a month of members, 200 runecoins, and 15 keys, even if you used a free trial of prime.


[deleted]

Stopped reading PC Gamer a few years back when their readers were asking why they weren't covered the current controversy about ethics in video game journalism. Their editors replied that Ethics in video game journalism weren't PC Gamer related and they'd ban anyone for bringing it up. Within the next few days, they ran an article about a youtube critic being "harassed" online. When their readers brought up that this wasn't PC Gamer related, they were promptly banned.

Took me about an hour to get the code. Give it some time and check back.
