Question about pre-order | Forums

[GST.Kega]

So if we buy the game (right now or prior to release) from a retailer such as Amazon or GMG, it still counts as a "pre-order" even if we don't receive our keys until the day of, correct? It's been a while since I pre-ordered a game and just not 100% sure. Thanks.

You'll get the game later if you get it through a 3rd party reseller. They aren't allowed to release the game key to you until AFTER the launch time, which means you cannot pre-load the game.

Other than that, yes, it should still be a pre-order key complete with the pre-order bonus. Though I'd suggest double checking with the retailer just to confirm as if it's missing any content you'd be entitled to a refund (if it's listed as a pre-order code that is).
