The $449 bundle includes a digital version of the game's Ultimate Edition, a custom gamepad, advance access to the game starting October 7th (four days ahead of its retail launch on the 11th) and some in-game weapon skins. The controller didn't make it out unscathed either, as it follows the design cues of the console, with faux-scratch marks and a bloody thumbprint on the D-pad.

If you don't want a pre-scratched red paddle, Microsoft has a blue one inspired by protagonist JD Fenix -- son of original trilogy star Marcus Fenix -- and his armor. Each are $75 and will be available to pre-order August 1st while reservations for the console bundle are open now.
