Official news on the release date, pre-order details and the Collector's Edition

[Omnipotent-Q]

I'm tempted by a Special Edition. They're always pricy these special box things no matter the game so in two minds about it. Probably will have to invest!

[Mary The Quene]

CA can you confirm these raquirments which are described at steam?

[Anna_Gein]

I'm not sure how it could have been made any simpler, but to answer your question, yes. You could buy the game after the second coming of Jesus and still get Pontus.

I am confused by the

Get Pontus for free on day one

Isn't it a bit different than "get for free from day one" ?

[oOIYvYIOo]

My humble point of view

[Aeneas Veneratio]

Hi.
Could you explained this part please ? Will Pontus be free if I buy the game say 2 month after the release date (so the 3rd November) ?

It will be available for download from release and until Steam goes out of business or the end of computers.

I just noticed you're French. Perhaps the language is causing a bit of confusion! But no, it's not different. Pontus is and always will be free.

When will the collectors editions become available outside the US? Its a bit cheeky that their only available to the US stores currently..

Yes it could be the cause. Hopefully Craig could clear this up for me. Otherwise I'm going to trust you guys and see how it is when the game is released.

Like the other fellas who browsed and stalked the last night's leak, I'm kinda meh right now, but I can imagine the feeling of a guy just stepping in those news

I actually expected something about the Campaign map and campaign gameplay :/

Cheers anyway.

I thought us English and French put aside our differences! You can trust us, no problem.

Thanks, Didnt think to check game, Just ran to the website and saw it was only US. My bad

Thanks!

[Lord Tomyris]

So stoked for this now.

[StephanVos]

by looking at the collector's edition we get a pretty good idea of the area the map will cover....hopefully the card game is not indicative of the in-game unit cards? Sorry, no pre-order for me before they show me some decent in game footage that does not disappoint. I can't believe i said that as a RTW fan!

[kostas84]

I am surprised no one said anything about the Paid Day 1 DLC(or cut content, or whatever you want to call it) for those who dont pre-order, i personally dont have a problem with this, others might though.

Anyway, great news, ill pre-order the game from Steam, 55 Euros is very expensive for me though! I hope the game lives up to its reputation.

Why charge extra money for something you already have made. S

[Aeneas Veneratio]

^Gives an incentive to preorder, just modern marketing at work.

The sooner they get money for their game, the better for their future projects. If we all waited weeks/months before buying the company would go broke.

YAHOOOOO... WE LOVE YOU, CA! September I will close my room and stay with Rome 2.
