A new instalment into the highly-acclaimed SimCity series has been a long time coming, and PC gamers preparing to get their building and management fix have a few options when considering pre-ordering.
MyGaming checked local retailers’ listings to see what was on offer, and there are 3 SimCity editions available.
The Standard Edition – features the vanilla-flavoured game.
The Collector’s Edition – includes a collectible Steelbook case, which features a lenticular 3D artwork on the cover sleeve.
