The only issue is the price compared to the standard edition, but I would say this would be collector's item that you won't find on the shelves of a Best Buy after 6 months for half off I will update the OP with this information for any interested parties of course

Thanks for the info. I didn't know about the restrictions. That's one hell of a price for the LE though It went up to 89.99 euros

I'm gonna assume that the Collector's Edition will feature the English option of the game, anyway, since PAL region games feature multiple languages to begin with, right?

Mostly finding it funny that the listing on Amazon shows three languages, all being Italian.

It goes down to 75 euros when ordering because they cannot charge the VAT tax for an order going overseas. Still it is a pretty penny compared to buying the standard for under $40 shipped....

Pre-ordered standard ed. Thanks.

75 Euros is still over 90 $USD. For those that don't want to pay extra for the "special Packaging," the toy is available separately for just under $40 shipped:

I have the Going Merry version of this and it is pretty cool, but if that is the only extra, I'll probably wait for the US PSN digital pricing and get that - I assume there will be cool DLC I don't want to miss out on.

How much for shipping?

Is the Going Merry version good quality or is it cheaply made?
And Japan received DLC(costumes, and new missions) so hopefully we will too.

£1.00 ($1.56) for the Standard from Zavvi.com

€14.00 ($17.17) for the Collector's Edition from Amazon Germany

Just got a shipping notice for my order from Zavvi.

a little off topic but does anyone know how much it will be on PSN tuesday?

Is this going to be the same full version? Does this mean it will not be released on disc in the U.S.?

I don't think they've even announced a price yet. Most likely what Warriors Orochi 3 released for though..which was $49.99 I believe?

It's the same full version. No disc release for the US, only digital. The game will only have Japanese voices and English subtitles, which is why it's only allowed a digital release in the US.

Just got confirmation from Amazon.de that they've shipped my Collector's Edition and it should be here by October 11. Huzzah!

Awesome! Glad someone bit the bullet on it. I had it preordered, but cancelled it in favor of just getting the game from Zavvi. I didn't realize it, but they also released the Collector's Edition in an Asian version with English subtitles this last week as well for $79.90. It's already sold out at Play-Asia, but available here .

Got my "despatched" email from Zavvi on the 20th, so hopefully I get it by the end of the week. It will most likely come in at the beginning of next week though. I can wait.

Damn. Kinda wish I knew about that, seeing as how I would've saved a few bucks. Ended up costing me about $117 total. Shipping is what shot that bastard up in price.

Game is $49.99 so you can get the PAL version for about the same price + a shipping wait.

I'm account sharing it with a friend for $24.99 each so I'll stick with the digital version (which is 11 GB, so you'll need 22 GB and a night of patience to download and install it).

That collector's edition from Bonanza is a great find though.

why aren't they releasing the game in physical copy in the us?

Anyone else get a second charge from Zavvi? I have two charges ($38.56 and $1.61) on my credit card. Only thing I can think of is that they charged me separately for shipping?

Another CAG mentioned that it is digital only because of the Japanese voice/English only subtitles. I'm guessing that games without English voice work can only be offered as a digital title.

There's a certain qualification that your game has to get in order to be released on a disc without English dubbing. Obviously the Yakuza series gets a pass since that's a Sony exclusive. I think I've seen a couple other games on disc that only had Japanese dub. Maybe Way of the Samurai 3?
