===Pre-order bonuses===
Game publishers obtain more pre-orders by including exclusive in-game or physical bonuses, available only if the player pre-ordered the game. Bonuses typically include extras such as exclusive characters, weapons, and maps. For example, GameStop included an additional avatar costume for ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops]]'' when it was released in November 2010,<ref>{{Cite web|last=Bradford|first=Matt|date=September 16, 2010|title=Call of Duty: Blacks Ops pre-order bonuses include art and avatar gear|url=https://www.gamesradar.com/uk/call-of-duty-blacks-ops-pre-order-bonuses-include-art-and-avatar-gear/|access-date=January 29, 2021|website=gamesradar|language=en|archive-date=February 8, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210208005928/https://www.gamesradar.com/uk/call-of-duty-blacks-ops-pre-order-bonuses-include-art-and-avatar-gear/|url-status=live}}</ref> and a pictorial Art-Folio for ''[[Metroid: Other M]]''.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Fletcher|first=JC|date=May 28, 2010|title=Metroid: Other M pre-orders include 'art folio' at GameStop|url=https://www.engadget.com/2010-05-28-metroid-other-m-pre-orders-include-art-folio-at-gamestop.html|access-date=January 29, 2021|website=Engadget|language=en}}</ref> Soundtracks, artbooks, plushies, figurines, posters, and T-shirts have also been special bonuses.
