did lrg officially switch to a pre-order model instead of a single defined batch model?
No.  Kingdom is preorder because switch.  Musynx is pre-order because the switch version is full retail.

Everspace will also be open preorder but that's because they want all of the folks who preordered it from places to have a bit of time to order from them since the BadLands release was cancelled.

OK, you just answered my question before I asked it. :)  I knew I had seen this up for preorder at Gamestop so I was really confused. I've enjoyed the XBOne version, so I'll grab it on PS4 to have a physical copy.

Children of Zodiarcs devs just sent out an email to Kickstarter backers. Here's a bit of the email:

With the PS4 patch now done, we can move forward with prepping the final physical version, which involves a few distribution related operations (submissions to ESRB and Sony) and of course, printing the disks… and the box art!

We’re proud to announce that we’ll be working with Limited Run Games on the physical copies of the PS4 version. We’ve been talking with them for a long time so it’s super cool to be able to say this out loud! This also means that in addition to the copies reserved to backers, the rest of the run will be available for sale through Limited Run Games, for anyone who wants a (or additional!) physical copy of the game.

Honestly, I don’t know how long these remaining steps will take since we’ve never gone through this for physical games before, so I can’t really give a reliable delivery estimate, but I can say that we are tackling the last steps required to produce them.

Just wanted to pass along the word for any who were interested in getting a physical copy.

Oh, awesome! Glad I never got around to picking it up. :)

Would anyone here be willing to try to snag an extra copy of the CE of Night Trap for me?

I’ll be on a plane Friday. :(

Check my feedback, I’m good for it.

Magicka 2 will not include a manual or dlc on the disc.

July 13th is a break, Exile's End is moved to later this month.

I was bummed seeing that news from Douglas about Magicka 2... I was really hoping that the DLC and something like a manual would be included, even if it cost a bit more. Having DLC on a disc for the future would've really sold me on it. But at this point I'll probably skip on that one.

Yeah, I'll be getting Night Trap in some form, Observer, and Kingdom: New Lands.  Might go for the CE for Night Trap... Really depends on whether or not it's the original 6 way VHS thing that was originally planned, or if it is just a plain VHS tape with the game in the form of a non-interactive film.
