A Complete Guide to Prey's Preorder Bonuses

Get the best deal possible.

By Chris Reed

There’s a good chance you’re feeling overwhelmed by all the big, high-quality games that have come out over the past few months. If so, I have some bad news for you: 2017 isn’t easing up yet.

More promising games are in the pipeline, including Prey, from Arkane Studios, the makers of the Dishonored franchise. The game comes out May 5 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. If you haven’t seen it yet, be sure to check out our Prey hands-on preview for a detailed look at the game’s opening hour.

Prey stars Morgan Yu, a human who happens to be enhanced with alien powers. It’s a good thing, too, because you’ll have to use them to survive on a space station that’s been overtaken by menacing extra terrestrials. If you’re ready to hand over your money for this sci-fi thriller, you’ll probably want to know about your buying options. You’ve come to the right place.

No Special Editions

Compared to many other AAA releases (like Mass Effect: Andromeda), Prey isn’t going crazy with special editions and preorder bonuses. In fact, no special editions will be available at all, which means collectors are out of luck. But you can find a few preorder incentives, some of which are exclusive to particular retailers.

Preorder Bonus

Everyone who preorders Prey will get the Cosmonaut Shotgun Pack. This downloadable add-on includes the following items:

• Yu family’s heirloom Margrave shotgun

• 2 Medkits

• 3 Neuromods you can spend to acquire new abilities

• Fabrication plan to create Shotgun Ammo

• Starter kit for building tools and weapons

• Recycler, a unique upgrade to help you preserve your limited resources
