We know what the attributes are, but character creation hasn't been revealed yet. Based on what Tim Cain spoke about back in 2017, it may be a bit unusual.

So, what exactly do we get if we pre-order directly from the official Private Division store? They don't say. A direct download? Do they have a launcher app of their own? Are they simply reselling Epic Games Store keys?

Only 30k views! You should record a clean version (without Brian Heins speaking over NPC dialogue all the time) and upload it to your YouTube channel. In general, I don't understand why more game developers don't publish their own "gold standard" official gameplay videos instead of relying exclusively on incidental previews from third parties. This is the best advertising you can have, much more important than silly 2 minute trailers.

The PC pre-orders are all working now, including the Epic and Private Division stores.

Here's a new thing in Epic exclusivity. The famous indie studio Klei Entertainment are going to release the alpha of their upcoming game Griftlands exclusively on the Epic Games Store. But everybody who buys it there will get a free Steam key for the Steam Early Access release next year. https://steamcommunity.com/games/601840/announcements/detail/1610514097397241772 Come on, Private Division, you can do this.
