The Collector’s Edition costs $149.99 and includes a copy of the game, an 11-inch-tall Fury figurine, a premium box, a steelbook, an artbook, soundtrack, and exclusive armor DLC (cosmetic; does not affect gameplay). The Apocalypse Edition, meanwhile, runs $399.99 and includes the latter four items, a copy of the game, as well as its own premium box, a 30”x 40” wall scroll (with hanger), a 2-inch heavyweight amulet with necklace, and four figurines: Fury (11" tall), War, Death, and Vulgrim (10" tall each).

Spawn_of_Apathy Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Do they know something nobody else does about the popularity and hype for this game that they think people will spend $400 on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LazyPiranha Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Holy shit I thought this game came out last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispy4000 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 I'm actually happy this game is coming this year. It should make up a little for so many games getting pushed for RDR2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's really odd that they would create such an expensive SKU for a franchise with fairly middling sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skillzdadirecta Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I own the first two games and have never played them. Got the first one cheap and the second for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XxEvil AshxX Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I've played through both darksiders games and the main problem with them is that the Horsemen are the most one-dimensional bland characters and you really dont care about them or what theyre trying to do. Everything else is technically fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aren't these special editions designed for the relatively low number of hardcore fans rather then trying to sell 100k copies of a $150 SE? Personally I would never buy one of these, or SE in general, but if just a few hundred people who are big fans of the series buy this it seems worth it to the publisher. We all have a few games that most people don't care about, but we might shell out an inordinate amount of money for a SE. Even if it's not my favorite game out there, DS seems like a good enough game series, with the addition of it's unique aesthetic, to have some really big fans.

I believe I got Darksiders 1 on PS3 through PS+ years ago. Then I got Darksiders 2 on PS4. What I played of the original on PS3 was good enough to make me grab the Remastered edition on PS4 during this current sale for 2 bucks. I figure if I ever feel like going through both games now I'll have the Remastered set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikachu Posted July 12, 2018 Author Share Posted July 12, 2018 That's a good point. They probably won't print more than a couple thousand copies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
