RPG MAKER MZ PREORDERS LIVE!

RPGMakerWeb · 2020-07-21T02:27:55+0900

So, Preorders are live everyone. ... what, I have to write more than that? Fiiiiiine. RPG Maker MZ Preorders are NOW LIVE! Purchase during the Preorder period to get sweet bonuses such as 10% off (plus an additional 10% off if you own MV!), a free copy of RPG Maker MV, and two Bonus DLC! ・Bonus Pack 1: Character Generator Pack This pack will give you even more component pieces to use in the RPG Maker MZ Character Generator! With the theme of children and the elderly, this pack will add many new possible looks to your generated characters ・Bonus Pack 2: MV and MZ Remix Music Pack This pack contains 26 Remixes of select songs from RPG Maker MV and MZ! It also includes 4 additional new songs, for a total number of 30 extra tracks. You can find preorder on the RPG Maker Web Store, or on Steam! Additionally, there are two Bundled versions on Steam (Hopefully, coming very soon to the RMW Store), the RPG Maker MZ Bundle, and The RPG Maker MZ Bundle S that include even more bonus DLC! Included are: Included in Bundle AND Bundle S version: Included in Bundle S Version Only: Check out the Bundles on Steam here: RPG Maker MZ Bundle RPG Maker MZ Bundle S There, I typed more. You happy now? Preorder FAQ If I order through the RPG Maker Web store, can I still activate through Steam as well like we did in MV? Yes. Is there a standalone Mac version for MZ? At this time, the Mac version is only supported through Steam. You can still purchase through our store and then activate through Steam. I want the Bundle or Bundle S pack, but want to order through the RPG Maker Web Store. Will that be possible? We are currently working on adding both Bundles to the RMW store as well. They should be available before Preorder. Just hold on to your wallets for the moment and we'll make this a reality soon. I own MV through the RMW store but want to purchase through Steam/own MV through Steam but want to purchase through the RMW store, can I still get the 10% off? We do not have a method to offer this at this time. Though in the first case, purchasing through the store does provide you with a Steam activation key as well.

MV has a database converter application on steam now though, it's windows only, but it can export your databases out to a hand editable format, and then import them back in as well. So there is kind of a work around for that kind of thing.

Oooooh, I'll have to look for that; thanks for mentioning it! :kaoluv:

EDIT: I found it!

Kadokawa's Database ConVerter MV
RPG Maker MV Tools - Database ConVerter MV (on Steam)

Thanks again for sharing it. It looks like I can use Excel and just import it as needed.

We're trying to get more preview images of all the packs up, but we're all kind of working around the clock. :)

The person who handles that just got back in so I'm going to ask them about it :)
Amazing! I'm always hyped for a new RPG Maker release. Thank you all for your hard work on this.

I cannot wait to try out the engine and its assets. I am particularly curious about the new animation system.

I guess it would be too much given the nice bonuses we are already getting, but it would be pretty nice if by pre-ordering we could also get some beta access or something, Just to give the engine a try before the full, final version comes out.

Personally I like to beta test, and I tend to give feedback when I do have the chance to try something out before its release.

@Touchfuzzy Is there any word on the bundles being available directly on the store here instead of steam? And with the discount?

That sounds logical but I would like word from an admin.

I don't like pinging but....

Can we give away our copy of MV to someone? How would we go about that if we can?

@Touchfuzzy Can you please answer this for me? Thank you.

I'm not Touchfuzzy but I can answer this. If you preorder MZ on steam, you get a copy of MZ that you can gift to a friend, it goes into your inventory the same as cards and other steam items do. [like hats for team fortress 2 and skins for space engineers :D] You can gift it right away if you have someone you want to gift it to, or after 30 days it will let you trade it. Similarly if you buy MZ through the RPG Maker Web store, You get your key for MZ and your key for MV. Interestingly, now this is personal experience, when I activated my MZ preorder on steam, it gave me the steam giftable copy as well. So technically getting it on the RPG Maker Web Store nets you 2 copies of MV. Not sure if a bug or just a fringe benefit of how the preorder MZ keys work on steam.

But yes, the copy of MV you get for buying MZ is explicitly so that if you already own MV you can share the fun with a friend. :3

Sorry for insist but... only 11 days left for the launch, when will be the bundles available to purchase on the RPGStore? Don't want end having to purchase the resources separately from Steam to use them on my projects and lose the 21,7€ (or higher) discount which could be used on purchase other resources.

Why does it takes too long? What's the difference between apply a discount on the bundle in RPGStore and Steam to take so long?

I'm really liking the new character sets! (Too bad I wont be able to use them since they will be in like every game out there, lol) :(

@GalacticGod yeah, the RTP characters look great. I plan on using them in an RTP only game when MZ comes out. I just really want to use them. :D

I'll check in again about these. The site store just wasn't really configured for it. It's being worked on.

Thank you, @Touchfuzzy. No worries. Do you think though - at a certain point, should we just go for the steam bundle, if it's not ready in time? Or if we really prefer having client not tied to steam, will we be able to purchase the packs in the bundle separately via the store, or are they exclusive to the steam bundle?
Touchfuzzy

Nothing is exclusive to Steam. Everything will be available on the RMW store.

Thanks for keeping us updated, Touchfuzzy. Still really hype for this come out, I can't wait to play around with it. The new ATB system looks like it will be a lot of fun.

well, extra hard work doing other coding projects paid off.
*chucks cc at screen* gimme!

As much as I want the packs (essentials, dark fantasy, trinity) but only got enough to snag base at preorder (sobs). lets hope they'll be available individually

Will the non-Steam edition still require online authentication, like it almost always does? The System Requirements section doesn't mention it.

Yes you still have to activate the product. (Though there is an offline activation function, you just have to email our support for it).
