How to Redeem Pre Order Bonus DLC for Ace Combat 7
Ace Combat 7 has finally arrived on PS4, Xbox One, and PC, delivering more aerial dogfights than you can shake a stick at. If you’re here though, you’re likely wondering how to redeem your special pre order content. Here’s how to redeem pre order bonus DLC for Ace Combat 7.

Any digital pre orders will simply have their bonuses credited to their account, and much of the in-game content will simply be installed alongside the game onto your system.
However, as pointed out by Sam from Bandai Namco UK over on Reddit, physical copies are slightly different.
For those who have purchased a Collector’s Edition or Deluxe Edition of Ace Combat 7, there should be a slip inside the box with a code for you to redeem your bonus content, regardless of the platform you’re playing on.
