One curious note is pre-ordering the Ultimate or Deluxe Editions of Back 4 Blood  grants you early access on Oct. 8, four whole days before it’s supposed to release. Those two editions will set you back $99.99 USD and $89.99 USD, respectively. Not exactly cheap, but if you’re dying to play it, the option is there.
