Los que pre-ordenen el juego recibirán la edición limitada que ofrecerá 4 horas por el doble de puntos por velocidad, un Porsche 911 Carrera S del 2012, y un Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale. Esto no es lo único. También, tres paquetes estarán al alcance de los ‘gamers’ via Origin y ciertas tiendas que ofreceran distintos estilos de juego en sí según la velocidad, su fuerza y su ataque.
