5 Reasons to Pre-Order Elden Ring & 4 Reasons to Wait

Pre-Order If You Can Find the Premium Collector's Edition in Stock

If you want the Elden Ring Premium Collector's Edition and you see it in stock ahead of the game's release date, don't hesitate.

The Premium Collector's Edition is the most expensive Elden Ring bundle ($259.99 in the United States) and it comes with the most extras. Here's what you get:

• Official Malenia helmet replica 1:1 scale.
• 9-inch statue of Malenia – Blade of Miquella.
• Exclusive SteelBook featuring the Elden Ring.
• 40-page hardcover art book.
• Digital Soundtrack.
• Pre-order bonuses.

It's worth noting that Bandai Namco's store in the EU states that the Premium Collector's Edition is a "numbered and limited edition of 6,000 units worldwide." In other words, it will likely be hard to find.

If you don't want to pay more than MSRP, you'll want to pre-order if you can. If you wait, you'll likely have to contend with absurd prices on resale sites like eBay.
