Quick Pre-ordersUS: $69 at AmazonUK: £64.95 at Amazon
Ace Combat 8 Wings of Theve pre-orders took off this summer. But as the October 2 release date gets more into view, this is my reminder that picking it up ahead of time is the only way to nab a copy of the PS2 classic Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War.Pre-orders are available for $69.99 / £54.99 digitally on Steam, and there's a physical standard edition available for $69.99 / £64.95 (via Amazon) for the Xbox Series X and $69 / £64.95 (via Amazon) for PS5 players. For those who want more in-game goodies, there's also a Deluxe Edition available for $20 / £20 more, which piles in 3 days' early access, a Premium Ace Pass Plus Voucher, and a customizable cosmetic set. However, pre-ordering either will net you that coveted copy of Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War, the game originally released on the PS2 in 2006.If you don't want to miss out, pre-ordering is your only hope. Well, besides picking up a second-hand copy. Bandai Namco Brand Director Kazutoki Kono said it's "strictly prepared as a bonus" and that there are "no plans to sell it separately" in an interview with invenglobal earlier this month. Yet don't fret just yet, as I've gathered all the best US and UK retailer links below so you can catch the Ace Combat Zero bonus before Wings of Theve prepares for lift-off.

Amazon│In Stock - £64.95Amazon UK has both standard and Digital Deluxe stock to go around. Prime members will be able to take advantage of speedy shipping times, especially as the retailer is better at dropping new releases off on release day (at least in my experience).
