Those of you looking forward to picking up Bethesda’s stunning-looking steampunk romp Dishonored will be pleased to know that the company has today unveiled a boatload of pre-order goodies and Special Edition pack for the game.
First up, the Special Edition will be available exclusively at GAME and Gamestation, and features a copy of the game alongside a Dishonored-themed tarot card deck and instructions on how to play the ‘Game of Nancy.’
In addition, the bundle also includes the Arcane Assassin Downloadable Upgrade Pack, which offers several in-game goodies (detailed below). To top it all off, the SE release won’t cost you any more cash than the standard retail edition.
Those of you looking to pre-order the game meanwhile will have a host of retail-specific packs to choose from. Tesco, Shopto.net and Amazon UK are among the retailers participating in this scheme. See below for full details.
Dishonored is due for release on PlayStation 3, PC and Xbox 360 in October 2012.
