Publisher NCSOFT and developer Carbine Studios announce they are accepting preorders for WildStar, their upcoming MMORPG, offering in-game perks and beta and early access to the game as an incentive for buying in advance (the folks at Dealzon have rounded up the best deals on this if you are interested). WildStar is currently expected to launch on June 3rd, and this is the outline of what to expect from the game and preordering:

Pre-orders are now live for NCSOFT® and Carbine Studios’ highly anticipated MMORPG, WildStar. Unlike anything currently available, WildStar engages players with a beautiful and distinctive animation style, robust housing customisation and high-action combat that truly tests players’ skill with its combination of movement, aiming and ‘telegraphs’. In addition, the game’s personality is distinct in its own right; humorous but laced with a mysterious undercurrent that implies there is more happening on planet Nexus than meets the eye. WildStar’s innovative Path system rewards players for their individual style of play, while providing an unprecedented level of exploration and discovery within the world.

Players who pre-order have early access to several closed and open beta events and will receive a variety of exclusive in-game items and perks, including:

• Early game access beginning Saturday, 31st May (three days prior to the game’s official launch)
• An exclusive Rocket House
• A mini-ship housing decoration, which grants players additional rest experience points
• A 10-slot storage bag to increase character inventory
• The opportunity to reserve character and guild names prior to launch

Two versions of the game are available for pre-order: Standard and Deluxe, with the latter available digitally or at retail as a limited edition collectable Steelbook™. More information can be found at www.wildstar-online.com/en/preorder or through select third party retailers such as Game and Amazon.
