PS5 Pre Orders and Plunder Pass benefit

  • I noticed for the Deluxe SoT Pre Order on PS5 that it comes with the benefits of being able to play the game 5 days early and also getting a plunder pass.

    With Season 12 looking to start on the PS5 release date (30th April) that would mean those with 5 days early access would be joining the game at the end of Season 11.

    Depending on how the Plunder Pass benefit is received, is there any danger that it could be redeemed against the Season 11 pass by mistake, or cause confusion with new players who would be prompted to buy it?

  • @jimster71 Ahoy matey!

    The Plunder Pass will kick in when the Season begins and not before. So you'd have to wait for the official launch of the Season before your rewards start to unlock.

  • @musicmee Good to hear. That might need communicating on release though, otherwise you might get a bunch of questions from new players wondering why they don't have the season pass. They won't necessarily understand how the seasons sit.

    I actually think this might be wrong. In game right now it says that the season is over in 5 weeks. However it doesnt usually change from say 5 to 4 until its fully 4 weeks left. ASSUMING this, it will hit 4 weeks on Thursday the 28th. 3 weeks on April 4th. 2 weeks on April 11th. 1 weeks on April 18th. And the season will be over on April 25th when Season 12 starts. Playstation release is Tuesday April 30th and 5 days of "early" play puts it on the 25th which is the same day that season 12 starts.

    They should have to worry about it being redeemed aagainst season 11 as it will already be season 12.

    @Musicmee Am I wrong here? Sorry for the tag.

  • @captain-coel Since nothing has been officially announced I can't really say much more other than. It will all align up... Plunder Pass etc. PS players won't just get 5 days of an old Plunder Pass.

  • Thanks for the replies and clearing that up.

    Understood. There was a reason I put assuming in all caps as we know what that means.

  • I preordred the deluxe $59.99 edition and still don’t have the season 12 plunder pass
