It has been announced that there are pre-order options. Pre-orders can only be made through Steam with players who have a Steam account. These Steam accounts had to have made purchases before June 2021 to be eligible; this tactic will help reduce malicious behavior by scalpers. Three tiers are available, each with different prices, storage capacities and benefits:

  • $399 - 64GB and comes with a carrying case
  • $539 โ€“ 256GB and comes with a carrying case and an exclusive bundle
  • $649 - 512GB and comes with a carrying case, bundle, anti-glare glass, and more.

These prices seem to be set at the above prices for each level. It does not appear that players who pre-order will receive a discounted price for their purchase. These prices will likely continue past launch day.
