Yesterday’s big scoop from Bethesda was the announced details of the “Imperial Edition” to the upcoming MMO Elder Scrolls Online. Shortly after the news, several PC digital retailers slotted up on the digital shelves Standard and Imperial Editions for preorder. Not only do the preorders come with preorder bonus incentives, but there’s also a 20% off coupon code slashing a huge chunk out of the listed price.

Accordingly, The Elder Scrolls Online Imperial Edition drops to $53.59 from $80, while the Standard Edition drops to $40.10 from the $60 list price. Since the announcement, the Imperial Edition preorders has been outselling the Standard by a significant margin. This may have to do with what’s included in each editions. Judge for yourself below:
