on

Updated:

Dishonored 2 launched on November 11, 2016, for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Before its release, there was much discussion about the different editions and bonuses available. Let's revisit what was offered:

Dishonored 2 - Standard Edition

The Standard Edition was available on all platforms (PS4, Xbox One, and PC). Pre-ordering this edition was key, as it granted access to some valuable extras. Those who pre-ordered received:

  • Dishonored: Definitive Edition: A digital copy of the first Dishonored game, including all DLC. This was a great incentive, especially for players new to the series, as it provided crucial backstory and context for Dishonored 2.
  • Pre-order Bonus: This bonus generally included in-game items or currency, although specifics may have varied by retailer.

Purchasing the Standard Edition after launch only included the base game itself.

Dishonored 2 - Collector's Edition

The Collector's Edition was a premium offering packed with physical and digital goodies, making it a tempting purchase for dedicated fans. It included:

  • Dishonored 2, pre-order bonuses
    Legacy Steelbook:     A special steelbook case featuring artwork of Emily Kaldwin and Corvo Attano.
  • Corvo's Mask Replica: A physical replica of Corvo's iconic mask (dimensions: H: 34 cm, W: 15 cm, D: 14 cm). This was a centerpiece of the Collector's Edition.
  • Emily's Ring Replica: A replica of Emily's ring, presented in a special box. The ring was made of a zinc alloy.
  • Karnaca Propaganda Posters: Physical reproductions of in-game propaganda posters from Karnaca, adding to the game's immersive atmosphere.
  • Digital "Imperial Assassin's Pack": This digital content included:
    • Exclusive bonecharms (Duelist's Luck and Void Favor).
    • New lore and artwork (including an ancient Serkonan guitar and the book "Goodbye, Karnaca - A Musician's Farewell").
    • 500 in-game coins to spend at the black market.
  • Dishonored: Definitive Edition: A digital download code for Dishonored: Definitive Edition (including all DLC), mirroring the pre-order bonus for the Standard Edition.

In Retrospect

Looking back, the pre-order bonus for the Standard Edition, which included Dishonored: Definitive Edition, was a significant value proposition. The Collector's Edition offered a compelling package for hardcore fans, with the physical collectibles being the main draw. While the game has been out for several years, this breakdown provides a historical overview of the different editions and their contents for those interested in Dishonored 2's release.
