Amazon UK has it also listed but currently unavailable
That's the USA release listed on Amazon UK
Release date Tuesday June 7th

The Seller when live to order will be Amazon US (Amazon USA Global Shop) and not Amazon UK


Amazon USA Global Shop listings on Amazon UK are UK delivery address only
When live the price includes UK vat and is free shipping
The seller when release goes live to order will be listed as Amazon US and shipped by Amazon US and only then will the listing change to US Import

Amazon USA Global shop listings on Amazon UK only go live to order after usa release date
and will list as available to order only if Amazon USA still has stock available after release date that is why some listings on Amazon UK don't go live as Amazon USA sometimes is sold out before release date or amazon US has very little amount of stock available

Amazon USA global shop lists lots of USA releases on Amazon UK months before release date but only go live after USA release date that is why you see lot of USA listings on Amazon UK
You can tell the difference between UK and USA releases by the release date
UK is always a Monday and most times will have BBFC age rating showing
USA is always a Tuesday

USA and UK releases always have different ASIN numbers when it comes to Amazon UK and Amazon USA listings

You can also tell by ASIN if it's a USA release import listed on Amazon UK by checking the ASIN number
Amazon USA ASIN B09TL98M8J

If this steelbook gets a trade wide UK release from Sony the ASIN number on Amazon UK will be different to what you see listed on Amazon USA
It's also possible it might be a retailer exclusive in UK instead and UK release not be listed on Amazon UK with amazon UK as the seller

Third party listings don't count as the seller is not Amazon UK
Example Amazon USA Global Shop is a third party listing


All Amazon USA global shop listings before USA release date on Amazon UK will say Temporarily out of stock and you don't see listed as US import until after USA release date
After USA release date only then will you see listed the selller as Amazon US when it's in stock with Amazon USA
