Great news. Man the summer is going to be stacked with quality videogames for sure.
 
Game comes out this Thursday and, at least on PC, it has pre-order disccount.


Think I'll be getting this Day 1. After SMT V and ER's DLC I could use a simple and fun game like this one.
 
Deluxe unlocks a day early. PSN+ members get a 10% discount as well.
Ouch, I think PC bros won't be getting the day early bonus even with the preorder, all I see on the Steam page is some free DLC for preordering.

Wonder if we'll have an OT here on GAF to talk about this game on release? I'd bet maybe 10 people here care about it. :goog_relieved:

bender bender yeah, it's the part about the 24-hour Early Access that seems to be nowhere to be seen on the Steam store page.

Will you playing on PS5? Would be cool to read your impression on the 24th to build some hype. :messenger_ok:

Yep. I pre-loaded last night (50GB!). My buddy loves this series and doesn't game on PC.
 
Was looking forward to this but I'm hearing there's no ultrawide support, which was expected, and it's locked to 60 FPS, which is a dealbreaker.

Buzzing cant wait, 100% 5 and all the others, 6 isn't a massive change from EDF5 but it has cross campaign progression between online/offline which 5 didn't and a new backpack slot, other than that some QOL improvements and that's it.

Nice, will do Hard in solo and Hardest/Inferno on multi.

Loved my time with EDF5 but 100%ing it sure was a colossal task.

Bought it on Humble, and yes, you do get the pre-order bonuses even though they aren't mentioned at all on the Humble site.

Really?
I just got an ultrawide monitor...
Hopefully someone will make a patch to enable uw.

Two great sources, in case you don't know about them already, are the WSGF discord and pcgamingwiki.com

Most ultrawide fixes come from people in this discord.
