Pre-ordering involves reserving a physical copy of the game at retail, with either a small deposit or no advance payment, which won’t grant you the pre-purchase perks. Collector’s Edition copies of Legion are only available for pre-order, and not pre-purchase.
We know that many of you are interested in getting your character boost now and early access to the new Demon Hunter before launch, and that many of you are also planning to get the Collector’s Edition of Legion as well. To help you do both, we’ve set up a process similar to the one for Warlords of Draenor to receive a replacement Legion game key once you upgrade to the Collector’s Edition. Just follow these steps:
- 1. Pre-purchase a digital version of Legion now and begin using the included character boost immediately.
- 2. Pick up your Collector’s Edition pre-order once Legion releases.
- 3. Enter your Collector’s Edition key on your Battle.net Account Management page.
- 4. Contact Blizzard Customer Support for a replacement of your original Standard or Digital Deluxe Edition Key.
- 5. Give the new digital key to a friend!
