Is there any exclusive content if you pre-order the game?

There are some extra goodies digitally on GOG, but they are regardless of preorder or later purchase. There really are no preorder bonuses anywhere other than a store credit at Best Buy, the Best Buy steelbooks if you're into that, and the Gamestop Samurai Medallion.

Everything else that is unique (e.g. physical exclusive items you don't receive digitally, or the extra digital content you get on GOG) is included whether you preorder or buy the game months from now. They're just included with purchase.

And nothing in-game at all.

Oh, I didn't know that. Thanks for the info :)

Nope, no bonus they're confident it will sale a lot since it will be super quality. So you can decide to buy it whenever you want to as well.

BTW On GOG they have some goodies for free, but you don't need preorder.

No Preorder Bonuses?

I am a sad Panda.

Now where have I heard this one before..

[El Pedro Los Yeet]

Is there a preorder bonus?

Or can just wait until the reviews have come out?

[shlizzrd]

no preorder bonus

The pre order bonus is the fact that there's no pre order bonus. Just as every pre orders should be. Ever.

I agree with Captein. Pre-order bonuses are scummy tactics used by greedy companies.
People should simply be able to buy the complete game at any point. Giving someone a bonus for finding a game before release, or say having a system that can run it before launch, is just unfair to those coming along later. Plus it is a major disinsentive to people to buy after launch.

Agree. The only acceptable pre-order benefit in my opinion is the ability to pre-load the game, so that you can play directly at launch.

That or the Early Access system. You pre-order and get the chance to help bug test and balance the game as it's being made.

Of course, then you get the idiots who think that because a game's in EA, it should be sold for a big discount. They don't get that they're still basically just pre-ordering. They're buying the finished product, not the game in its current state.

I agree with this...

[djay80]

I swear the amount of times this gets asked...

there should just be a pinned post at the top saying "NO PREORDER BONUSES"
