It is ridiculous how they have done pre-orders since the Xbox and PlayStation 2 era. That seems to be the first generation where anything of substance was not provided to pre-ordering fans. I can't remember how many times I saw a pre-order on PSOne or Sega Saturn that came with a shirt, related pins, sometimes even a small art book here or there (some of these were store specific pre-order bonuses and may not have been official).

The point is, pre-orders used to mean something. Now they seem like a way for developers/publishers to offset the last bit of development/delivery with fans paying up for a skin that will be available to everyone within a year of the game release, or an icon on their profile (also probably limited time wise, because, why not?).
