SECTION 06
Bonus content before a new save
01 · Editorial interpretation
Missing pre-order or Digital Deluxe items? Insomniac says Bonus Content should be on by default. When starting a new save, open All Settings → Bonus Content and set it On. That instruction does not establish a fix for an existing save; keep your current save.
Support answer, new-save setting path and default-on statement.
Supports
Missing pre-order or Digital Deluxe items? Insomniac says Bonus Content should be on by default. When starting a new save, open All Settings → Bonus Content and set it On. That instruction does not establish a fix for an existing save; keep your current save.
Limit
The developer gives no way to change this setting for an existing save, no entitlement-refresh guarantee, and no reason to delete or overwrite progress. The save-preservation caution is Kingy advice. No console or account was tested.
