Hell yes! Steam purchase day 1. I love having hunter games on PC. Let's just hope this runs better than Toukiden did.

Reading more closely, I'm not sure what they're trying here. God Eater: Resurrection is being sold separately 2 months before being included for free in copies of God Eater 2: Rage Burst. Why would anyone buy God Eater: Resurrection this coming June in that case?
 
It's amazing that we get a physical Vita release in Europe with a download code for GE:R included. Will double dip with PS4 for all versions together. Nice move from Bandai Namco.

Yea. Even SE pulls this shit only in NA releases. Star Ocean in EU is either standard or Limited with steelbook and that DLC. NA = no steelbook but DAY ONE EDITION banner.
Square does it in NA only? That's annoying, why don't they just advertise the pre order bonus only like western companies do?

The NA cover of this game is a bit cleaner but I couldn't find an image.

My copy of AK on PS4 is the steelbook edition so this garbage is on the outer sleeve (small victories) but yea they need to do these shit banners as stickers instead of printing them on the actual box art.

Well now, decisions, decisions. Might actually double dip for Vita and Steam. Oh crap, no physical Vita in NA, not sure then. Vita account system is crap so DLCs are no-go with a Euro copy.

Does Japanese version have English subtitles by chance

Only for Day One editions of the PS4 version. Says so on the American trailer.

So Vita version in NA is only digital and doesn't come with the GE:R code?

It's just for the DLC.

PC buyers who purchase GOD EATER 2: Rage Burst will have the download of GOD EATER Resurrection start automatically. PSN Buyers who pre-order GOD EATER 2: Rage Burst will be able to download GOD EATER: Resurrection for free when it releases on June 28th, 2016.

Physical release games I just buy them day one but now with digital releases I just wait and pick them up when they are on sale for $5-10 each.

So, getting GE2 will also come bundled with a free version of GE Resurrection? Sounds like one killer deal :D! Was going to get the game for my Vita, but with this deal, its too good to pass up.

Good on Bamco for doing this :D!

Edit: So this is only for EU versions? Shame, but happy its coming out in NA at all. Getting both day one and can't wait to give the series a shot :).

I don't do this kind of game outside handhelds so Vita for me. Sucks about the 3+ GB download of Resurrection though but I guess it can't be helped.

Bandai Namco has done this sort of bundle deal before with SAO RE: Hollow Fragment.
Truth be told, it's actually a pretty good deal.
 
Feels like the only benefit to getting GE:R is a physical PS4 copy in america so you can pawn off your digital code to someone who wasn't interested in buying it.

I don't get the set up for the other two platforms. Like why bother even releasing it on June 28th if they can wait and get it for free?
 
What a confusing announcement.

Regarding the US, we aren't getting God Eater Resurrection for free, it will release June 28, digital only, then God Eater 2 comes out August 30 (physical and retail?, with digital code for Resurrection?).

Is the US also getting God Eater Resurrection for free when we buy God Eater 2?

You don't even have to wait to get GE:R for free if you preorder GE:2 on PSN or Steam. You get access to GE:R on June 28 with a digital preorder of GE:2.

We will, but we're not getting a physical copy of Resurrection?
Might as well wait then. June is already packed as it is.

Thank you. This is such a confusing state of affairs.
