Rooster hat returns as pre-order bonus for Scribblenauts Unlimited

When DS owners pre-ordered the original Scribblenauts back in 2009, they were treated to one of the most charming bonuses ever: a rooster hat. Modeled after protagonist Maxwell's adorably awesome headwear, the rooster hat has been providing gamers everywhere with some much-needed warmth throughout the cold winter seasons over the past couple of years.

Scribblenauts Unlimited is en route to the Wii U, 3DS, and PC, and it looks to be the biggest entry in the series yet. To make things even more exciting, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment has announced that individuals who pre-order the upcoming puzzler at GameStop will be treated to their very own rooster hat. That's right, it's back!

The Scribblenauts Unlimited rooster hats come in three flavors. You've got the traditional red Maxwell hat, a blue doppleganger hat, and Lily's pink hat. In case you're wondering, Lily is the latest addition to the series cast, and she'll be joining Maxwell in the game's co-op mode.

It's not all rooster hats, though. Also announced was an upcoming 3DS bundle, which will include a copy of Scribblenauts Unlimited, a pencil-shaped stylus, and a Maxwell silicone case.

An exact launch date hasn't been officially announced yet, but you can stay tuned for more on that as we get the details from Warner Bros. and 5th Cell. I can't wait to own my second rooster hat!
