How to get the Resident Evil 4 remake pre order bonus

If you want to receive your Resident Evil 4 remake pre order bonus you first need to make sure you pre ordered a copy of the game from your preferred store. Your console's digital storefront will work, too. Here is the list of all console marketplaces where you could purchase the game prior to release:

• Xbox
• PlayStation
• Steam

If you're still clinging to physical media, you could try to pre order Resident Evil 4 from various retailers. For example, here is the link to the game’s page on Amazon.

Now the game is out, you can expect a DLC code in your box (or email if ordering online). If you buy the game digitally through your console, the DLC extras will likely flag automatically, with a notice appearing when you first boot the game.

From there, you'll either find them in a menu on the startup screen or have access to them in your item box from the start.
