Users say The Last Remnant "unplayable" on PC

The PC version of The Last Remnant hit European shores today, and there seems to be a bit of a snafu.

According to reports, the game cannot be played nor installed because of Steam, despite the fact it's not even suppose to hit the Valve download service until April 9.

The game has to be activated by entering a code off the back of the manual. The activation process is through Steam, which is giving would-be players the following message:

"The Last Remnant has not been officially released, and cannot be unlocked at this time. Please check Steam news to find out the release time. Steam will notify you when the game becomes unlocked."

Not a good start, especially considering The Last Remnant will be the first ever Square Enix game to land on Steam come next month.

Thanks, Eurogamer.
