Preorder Package Question

If I purchase one preorder package is it possible to upgrade to a higher tier package at a later date?

Thanks!

    Yes, and you just pay the difference. Realize that they are not additive, but cumulative. If you say buy the one now you will get the cosmetics, embers and sub time included in that. If you upgrade two cosmetic changes later, you would keep your original cosmetics and just gain the higher tier cosmetics from the month you are upgrading in (also the difference in embers, sub time, and any other benefits). You can also buy the cosmetics from following months at your tier or lower a la carte. So if you get the one that comes with the $5 shoulder piece, you can purchase the $5 cosmetics from then on, but not the higher tier ones unless you have that tier of package.

    Hello,
    I had seen lazy peon video's on AoC, and i directly bought the Wayfarer Pre-Order Pack ( i was very exciting ).
    If i understand ; i had to wait alpha two ( approximatively when ? )and i will receive a link for an exe by mail ?
    Does there is an other way to play without waiting ?
    THANK YOU

    Hi there - for the OP @toesly , Unknown's summary above is a great description for how packages and upgrades work, so hopefully that clears things up for you!

    For @NeoMink - The items available in these pre-order packages rotate on a regular basis and are only available for a limited time - once they're gone, they're gone!

    For @Kraken - Yup, the best way to keep an eye out for more specific testing news to your package level is via email! We're keeping our helpful knowledge base updated with our latest plans for testing and release here: https://ashesofcreation.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360016315013-What-are-the-Alpha-Beta-Release-dates-

    I'm going to go ahead and close this thread out now, but please don't hesitate to reach back out if there's anything further we can help out with!
