The package will include the fancy tin DVD case and the requisite art book that are commonplace with most CEs. However, my interest was especially piqued by the new armor that will be EXCLUSIVE to the Mass Effect 2 collectors package along with a copy of the new comic book “Mass Effect: Redemption.” I’m not always interested in the Collector’s edition of a game but this stuff has my legitimate interest. Any respectable SPECTRE would be foolish to ignore this new development.
Check out the official press release below.
BioWare has a good reputation for pleasing its fans and this gem of a game will surely be no different. I’m already saying this will be Game of The Year for 2010.
“We’re really excited to roll out this Collectors’ Edition featuring so many unique items, including special Collectors’ Edition armor and weapons and content that will surprise Mass Effect fans,” said Dr. Ray Muzyka, co-founder, BioWare and Group General Manager of the RPG/MMO Group of EA. “The limited edition comic book and bonus DVD will really enhance and expand the overall Mass Effect 2 experience.”
The Mass Effect trilogy is an emotionally charged science fiction adventure set in a vast universe filled with dangerous alien life and mysterious, uncharted planets. In Mass Effect 2, players will once again step into the role of the heroic Commander Shepard, commanding their crew of some of the most dangerous operatives from across the galaxy on a mission so challenging that it’s potentially suicidal. Featuring intense shooter action, a rich futuristic storyline, space exploration and emotionally engaging character interaction, the game delivers an unparalleled cinematic experience.
Mass Effect 2 will be available on the Xbox 360® videogame and entertainment system and PC. The Mass Effect 2 Collectors’ Edition will retail at an MSRP of $69.99 on Xbox 360 and $59.99 on PC. Mass Effect 2 assets are available at info.ea.com. Follow us on Twitter: http://twitter.com/masseffect2. For more information on Mass Effect 2, go to http://masseffect.bioware.com/.
Do you ever drop the extra 20, 30 ,50 bucks for Collector’s editions? Do you think you’re going to get this one?
Game Rant will be on course to the nearest Mass Relay as soon as humanly possible to keep you posted.
