Q: Did anyone receive their preorder bonus from their online order? I don’t see it in the receipt and it didn’t come with the game.

A: I contacted support and they told me the publisher has not provided any codes for the pre-order bonus. I had them escalate the issue to the publisher. Hopefully we will hear back from them to send us the preorder bonus codes via email.

Q: Is this game compatible with the Nintendo switch lite?

A: Yes this game supports all Nintendo Switch family systems.

Q: Will BestBuy offer a pre order bonus for physical copies of the game?

A: They were supposed to, but many people who pre-ordered here didn't receive the code. I contacted the publisher (Capcom) and they said they provided codes to all retailers, so I guess it's safer to preorder elsewhere next time.

Q: Steelbook?

A: No, it is not. It's in a standard Nintendo Switch game case.

Q: Is this going to be open world or dungeon instance based?

A: It's open world for the most part but also contains dungeons you may enter for specific missions.

Q: What about the DLC Deluxe Edition/Kit (Digital)? If we purchased the physical version, then how do we get the Deluxe Kit bonus and pre-order bonus? Also, what is the price going to be for DLC Deluxe Edition/Kit?

A: It will probably be a code inside of the game case along with the game cartridge that's probably how you will get the the DLC for the game

Q: will this version be physical?

A: This version is physical. However, there is a digital version available for purchase within the Nintendo eShop.
