Guild Wars 2 will be available to pre-purchase in a few weeks. Anyone who grabs the standard digital edition, the digital deluxe edition or the physical collector’s edition will get access to every beta event, entry to a three day headstart session and an in-game Hero’s Band, which will offer you a few stat boosts for your new character.

If you’ve got £130 lying around, and have a domestic cat you’d quite like to scare, the collector’s edition comes with a 10 inch tall statue of one of Tyria’s fiercest feline warriors, The Charr. His name is Rytlock Brimstone. He has a giant flaming sword and quite likes small fluffy things.

There’s lots more in the box. Read on for a list of what you’ll get in the digital deluxe and collector’s editions.
