Free $10 Gift Card with Game Preorders at Best Buy

The era of exclusive preorder discounts on video games is making a glorious, albeit fleeting, comeback. While the original deals might have ended, Best Buy is reigniting the spirit of the bargain by offering a sweet incentive: a free $10 Best Buy digital gift card when you preorder select titles at launch. For gamers who love locking in their purchases, this is the smartest way to load up on new experiences.

So, which games qualify for this savvy deal? The list features some heavy hitters across action-RPG, aerial combat, and the classic sports franchises. Currently eligible for the discount are The Blood of Dawnwalker, Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve, EA Sports FC 27, and EA Sports NHL 27.

First up is the immersive experience of The Blood of Dawnwalker, set in 14th-century Europe where powerful vampires reign over the Carpathian Mountains. Taking on the role of a Dawnwalker, you fight to reclaim control, offering an open-world action-RPG experience reminiscent of the epic storytelling found in titles like The Witcher 3. It drops on September 3rd and promises a thrilling adventure for those who love deep lore and intense combat.

For those who crave high-speed thrills, Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve invites players to dive into the skies and engage in intense military dogfights. Whether you choose to jump in on September 29th or October 2nd, prepare for exhilarating missions involving bombing runs and missile deployment against rival forces.

The sports fans will also find plenty to celebrate with EA Sports FC 27 and EA Sports NHL 27. FC 27 promises ultrarealistic soccer action and introduces a new feature called The Grounds, allowing players to meet, play, and recruit new club members in a dynamic environment. Meanwhile, NHL 27 brings the ice rink to life with updated graphics, real-world goal songs, and the inclusion of all 32 NHL arenas. Preordering NHL 27 also rewards you with a player pack, 500 NHL Points, and a WOC 2XP Boost.

Beyond these game-specific discounts, Best Buy is offering another exclusive bonus. If you are planning to jump into the latest action with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4, you can preorder the title and receive a free steelbook case. This bonus adds extra value to the deal, making it a truly compelling time to secure your next gaming adventure.
