The only edition of South Park Snow Day that you can pre-order right now is the standard edition. This edition comes with the base game only and costs $30. You can pre-order it for PlayStation5, Nintendo Switch, or Xbox Series X|S. There are no special or collectors' editions of the game announced yet, though they are bound to crop up nearer to release.
There are also no pre-order bonuses for Snow Day at the moment because the game does not have a confirmed release date. This might change in the future, but for now, you will not get any extra perks if you pre-order the game.
Is South Park Snow Day a sequel?
Yes, South Park Snow Day is a sequel to South Park The Fractured But Whole. The game's narrative occurs one day after the events of its predecessor. The player controls the New Kid as they explore the fictional Colorado town of South Park, around which the player-character can be freely moved.
Its predecessor is viewed from a 2D, third-person perspective and is set in South Park, a fictional town in the Colorado Rocky Mountains. The game features a fast-travel system that allows the character to be moved between unlocked travel points.
Everything we know about South Park Snow Day
South Park: Snow Day is a 3D co-op multiplayer game developed by Question Games. The game's official synopsis reads:
Join Cartman, Stan, Kyle, and Kenny in three-dimensional glory to celebrate the most magical day in any young child’s life – a snow day! Grab up to three friends and battle your way through the snow-piled streets of South Park on a quest to save the world and enjoy a day without school.
While no specifics are known about the game’s plot, it’s clear that Snow Day will continue the South Park tradition of kids taking their games way too seriously, turning their town into a warzone in their minds.

The game supports up to four players, and its move to a more modern style of gameplay and graphics creates opportunities for packing South Park: Snow Day with even more in-jokes and gaming references than its predecessors.
As for the characters of South Park, it’s unclear what role they will play in the game. The trailer only shows Cartman, dressed in his Grand Wizard King costume from the show Stick of Truth, celebrating the snow day and seeming to summon fire to rain down over the town alongside the snow. However, the game looks nothing like those 2D RPGs.
