Which version of Gotham Knights should you pre-order? With the game’s release nearing by the hour, that question has never been more prominent.
There are plenty of options for gamers this time around, with the Batman spin-off game having a Standard Edition, a Deluxe Edition and a Collector’s Edition from choose from (the latter two also include something called the Visionary Pack).
So, what does all that actually mean? What do you get with the different versions of Gotham Knights, and is there a pre-order bonus that applies across the board? Keep on reading to find out!
Is there a Gotham Knights pre-order bonus?

There is a pre-order bonus for every customer that pre-orders Gotham Knights, even if they just buy the cheapest Standard Edition version of the game (currently £50 from Amazon).
Every version of Gotham Knights comes with the 233 Kustom Batcycle Skin as a pre-order bonus. This will provide a unique look for your in-game motorcycle, giving it a slight brown tint in several key areas.

As well as including everything that you get with the Deluxe Edition and its Visionary Pack, the £279.99 Collector’s Edition also comes with this stuff:
- Gotham Knights New Guard Statue (an actual real-life model)
- Promethium New Guard Transmog (outfits in the game)
- Jim Lee Certificate of Authenticity
- Augmented Reality Talon Key
- Gotham City: City of Bridges collectible map (actual physical map)
By our reckoning, most gamers will be picking between the Standard Edition and the Deluxe Edition, with the Collector’s Edition being reserved for the only the most hardened DC fans.
And seeing as the Deluxe Edition only adds a handful of cosmetic items, we wouldn’t say it’s essential. So, don’t worry if you only want to splurge so far as the Standard Edition. You won’t miss out on much!
