The developers claim the game will be more streamlined and accessible (but not dumbed down). It will offer a better diplomacy and politics system than the previous titles, and feature agents like ninjas and geisha assassins. Shogun II will have the same hybrid gameplay that is a signature of the Total War series: managing your realm in turn-based campaign mode, and fighting epic 3D battles in real time. The other popular digital download store, Steam, seems to be offering only the standard edition of the game (in other words, no bonus). GamersGate (digital download): 15,000 Blue Coins (which is basically $15 store credit).“Best Buy Exclusive Edition” is available instead, which includes 1,000 Koku (in-game currency) for purchasing buildings, units and upgrades.

Best Buy (US): does NOT offer the Limited Edition of Shogun II.Limited Edition with Exclusive Chess Set (aka Grand Master Edition).Limited Edition (same as everywhere else).
