There's good news, though: Amazon on Friday started to notify some players who pre-ordered the game when it was first announced — which was in 2018 — that they'll get the finished product for free at launch.

"Today, we're making 'New World' available for pre-order again. You were one of the first customers to order New World, and you ordered it when it was free-to-play," according to a copy of the email reviewed by Business Insider. "Your order is still good, and your price — $0.00 — is still good also."

The e-mail goes on to tell those players that they'll be eligible to participate in a special pre-launch beta test of "New World" that's reserved for those who pre-ordered the game.Amazon did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider over how wide-spread this promotion will be.

Amazon announced the release date of "New World" with a cinematic trailer during the 2019 Game Awards in Los Angeles on Thursday night. The retail giant's in-house video game studio has been working on "New World" since 2016, and held a private alpha test earlier this year with an unfinished version of the game.

Some of the most successful online roleplaying games charge players a monthly fee to play, including "World of Warcraft," and "Final Fantasy XIV." However, "New World" will give players full access to the game for $40 with no additional fees.

If you pre-order "New World" now you'll get access to the game's beta test in April 2020, a month before it launches for the public. The players who pre-ordered for free in 2018 will receive access to that closed beta as well."New World" game director Scot Lane said at the Game Awards that the Amazon Games team will continue to incorporate feedback from players to fine-tune the game after release. "New World" will let players spend hundreds of hours exploring an uncharted island during the Age of Exploration.
