pre-orders<\/em> of PlayStation editions additionally get the vaunted “Felix Felicis Potion Recipe” of Harry Potter lore.<\/p>\nMy knee-jerk response is to be annoyed with platform unique content material, however you may nearly guess the character of what is on provide. An NPC who possibly solely has idle dialogue in different variations of the sport can have some sort of collect-a-thon for you with quest rewards which can be sort of OP within the early to mid recreation. Possibly they will even ship you to a bespoke dungeon if it is on the upper finish of issues. We’ll know extra quickly, I assume.<\/p>\n\nFull-on console exclusivity is changing into increasingly a factor of the previous, however small bits of DLC tied to completely different consoles and promotions are nonetheless stubbornly holding on, remnants of 2010 in 2022.<\/p>\n
Lengthy earlier than Bungie was acquired by Sony, Future had some unique goodies for PlayStation gamers\u2060\u2014an amazing gun (opens in new tab)<\/span> or two (opens in new tab)<\/span> right here, an okay Strike (opens in new tab)<\/span> there. It was by no means something earth shattering, and all the unique stuff ultimately made its option to different platforms a 12 months or two down the road. In the meantime, fellow stay service recreation Marvel’s Avengers has Spider-Man perpetually platform-locked to PlayStation.<\/p>\nThe identical 12 months as Future, Konami double-dipped in platform exclusivity with Metallic Gear Strong 5: Floor Zeroes missions specifically made (opens in new tab)<\/span> for PlayStation and Xbox. On PS4, gamers acquired an additional aspect mission during which Huge Boss recreates scenes from MGS1 on the Floor Zeroes map (kinda boring). Xbox pulled the longer straw with a mission starring Metallic Gear Revengeance’s Raiden tasked with killing “Physique Snatcher” enemies from the 1988 Kojima recreation Snatcher (sick). Fortunately, all of this content material ultimately made its option to the PC model.<\/p>\nIt wasn’t a console <\/em>unique, however in the identical spirit, Mass Impact 2’s coolest helmet, the Recon Hood (opens in new tab)<\/span>, was an unique Dr Pepper promotion requiring you to enter a code from a bottle cap. I like Dr Pepper, however I missed out, so I wound up protecting a cracked obtain for the Recon Hood on my arduous drive for 10 years till the Legendary Version launched with all of the DLC.<\/p>\nAnd that absurd little expertise actually cuts to the core of issues right here: will we on PC be that a lot much less spiritually fulfilled, disadvantaged as we’re of the Harry Potter sidequest to seek out all of Bloody Bernie Boffo’s Each Flavored Beans in change for a inexperienced rarity wand that makes Hogwarts Legacy’s first boss barely simpler? Not likely, however the idea is simply exhausting to even take into consideration. Attempting to grasp the remainder of Hogwarts Legacy’s model variations is equally tedious.<\/p>\n
No matter occurred to $60 for a guide, a fabric map, and an sincere day’s gaming? I assume that $300 electromagnetic floating wand version (opens in new tab)<\/span> of Legacy is cool, in case you’re into that sort of factor.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
