Are you planning on pre-ordering
The Espionage RPG? It may not be at the top of your list, but after hearing about the
pre-order bonuses … well, that probably won’t change. Still, if you’re planning on picking up the game anyway, they’re worth placing an order for.
Alpha Protocol will be offering pre-orderers two different in-game packs, depending on where you decide to make your purchase.
The Assault Pack, available from GameStop, unlocks a bunch of the more beefy weapons in the game, as well as giving access to two “exclusive specially modified weapons and extras.” The Stealth Pack, available from GameCrazy, is very similar, but is more skewed towards quietly picking off enemies with tranqs and suppressors. Check out the Sega blog for full details.

Sega of America has announced the release date for Obsidian’s Alpha Protocol, whatever that is. Oh, it’s “The Espionage RPG.” How helpful! That game will be out on October 6.
In addition to the date announcement, Sega released the North American box art, which can be found in our gallery. We must warn you, however, before you rush into the gallery, full of hope for a more exciting, distinctive box art image: it’s exactly the same as the UK box art seen yesterday, with the “PAL” label changed to “NTSC” and the PEGI rating box changed to an ESRB box. It’s still the same Pseudo-Bourne standing up in front of geography class.

So, in case it wasn’t made absolutely clear by the box art, here’s what Obsidian Entertainment’s head-slammin’ Alpha Protocol isn’t:
- The Overwrought Fantasy RPG
- The Contemplative Neo-Classical RPG
- The Effervescent Dating RPG
- The Number One Best Selling RPG
- An Espionage RPG
- That Other Game About The Secret Agent and Stuff
Joking aside, it’s quite likely that we’re simply oblivious to the subtitle’s significance to the plot — the one involving a sneaky rocket-propelled grenade that taps your phone and then blows off your ear. See if you can spot it in the developer diary embedded after the break.
