Registration for customers with pre-order keys has now opened.

Registration for customers with pre-order keys has now opened on http://register.ageofconan.com. Registering with a valid pre-order key (such as the Rhino or Mammoth key) is the unique way to be eligible to purchase Early Access for 5€/5$. This fee includes 10 days of game-time as well as the digital download of the client. Hurry though, because the Early Access is only available while supply lasts!

Note that pre-order items such as the Rhino and Mammoth is not available on Early Access accounts. Once an Early Access account is upgraded with the retail key, the virtual item can be claimed. The originally planned level capping of the Early Access has been removed.

The launch date for early access in Europe has been moved forward! Both the US and EU servers open on the 17th of May (5pm GMT). This date used to be the 20th for the EU servers, thus European players are now getting 6 days of early access until the regular launch on May 23rd!

This cap didn't really bother me at all, but I'm sure some people will be happy. Those few that want to get to 80 asap without enjoying the game. But hey, play how you want and have fun :P.

Good find, OP.

Good fine, OP.

On a FFA PvP server, this headstart is a major asset.

So I preordered it in a shop, do i go in there and say to get my preorder mammoth thing and go on the website. Because i have no idea how they do things in the shops. By the way I'm using GAME.

No, I honestly completely understand. I'll be playing on a PvP server as well, and I know how the guilds will be trying to advance as fast as possible to tank control of the server.

We all knew it would happen. It just means most of us wont be a part of the land grab rush.

They should have given you a code soon after you preordered. I would contact them soon (at least before May 14th) to get your code. This code will unlock your preorder gift and give you early access if you want to pay $5 (which you should :P).

Nice to see europe also going live for the headstart on the 17th,good news indeed.

I wonder how the people on these forums are going to spin this into something negative to troll about.

I am sure they will find a way....they always do...

To get the in game critter you register for game access. In game you will be able to hit a button to get the critter at level 40. That is when mounts become available. The access key you type in tells them which critter came from the retailer you chose. Pretty easy. Look at the preorder box to see which critter came with the code. I'm getting the Rhino. Looks a lot like my ex wife. (j/k)
