WoW: Legion will be released to the masses August 30th, 2016 for PC and Mac. If you too are looking to succumb to the temptation that is WoW, there are a few ways to do it; and it’s best to be informed so that you get the most for your money. 

You’ll have three editions to pick from: Collector’s, physical and digital. Here’s an overview of each, as well as the benefits of pre-ordering the game.

Collector’s Edition

Price: $89.99

World of Warcraft: Legion’s Collector’s Edition will only be available through retail, since their official site no longer takes orders on the physical edition. It comes with the classic large box sets that all the former games have been packaged in. Here’s everything inside:

Standard Edition

Price: $49.99

Maybe you’re just eager to get in there and play the game. World of Warcraft has been around for some time, and it’s understandable that some people would be hesitant to throw all of their weight back behind the franchise. Games nowadays come and go rather quickly. Look at Pokemon: Go’s rise to fame and fall to infamy in just a few weeks. If you want to just enjoy the game’s story and not dedicate your life to the world, this is the version for you.

It simply comes with a copy of the game, but if pre-ordered through the battle.net site, you can still enjoy the benefits of a free level 100 character to play alongside your friends in all the new content, as well as unlocking the Demon Hunter class right away.
