If I had seen this sooner, I'd have told you two about my experience with this issue. My GCU expired back around the start of February, so when I changed the card I used for my Doom CE preorder, they wiped the GCU discount. I called customer service and explained the situation. The guy helping...
Looks like the individual order of NIOH 2's steelbook is back up on Amazon.de and it's being listed back at 9.99 EUR again. Price had spiked at one point then sold out.

From what I remember, you can't play online if you refuse to update, but that's where the limitation ends. Game should still launch just fine. I believe there is no difference between PS4 and Xbox in that regard.
Oh, nice catch. I think it's a mistake on their graphics design part. My guess is that it really is front and back and they just forgot to give a flipped version to accurately depict that. Originally there were two images, but I shared the one focusing on the steel case.

Nioh 2 Steelbook available for purchase from Amazon.de for 9.99 Euros. This is a different steelbook than the one included in the special edition.

Based off the box art they show with the double pack, it's assumed that the gold pack is included inside the packaging and not a standalone steelbook. I suppose we wont know for sure until it releases.
