In truth, 25th October is a horrible time for The Last Guardian to release, what with Titanfall 2, Battlefield 1, Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, and… Sigh. Who cares if it flops, though? After all, ICO and Shadow of the Colossus did, too, and they're two of the finest adventure games ever to grace a PlayStation platform. We're confident that Fumito Ueda's latest masterpiece will measure up.
And if, like this author, you're quite literally in love with the concept for this game, then you may be tempted by the title's collector's edition. It popped up on Amazon earlier today, but was swiftly removed. Nevertheless, nothing remains secret on the Internet for long, and we've archived the image of the full set above for you to coo over.
So, what do you get? A copy of the game in a steelbook case, as well as a 72-page artbook to accompany it. You'll also get a digital soundtrack and a sticker sheet, but the pièce de résistance is the Trico statue, which just looks lovely, doesn't it? Oh, and it all ships in a great big wooden crate, because of course it does.
You will have to stump up $119.99 to purchase the set, but money shouldn't be an object where Team ICO is concerned. Game of the Year right here, folks – calling it.

That's a bit rich for my blood, but I'll definitely be getting the game at launch. It's too bad you can't get the Steelbook without the CE.
That is pretty damn tidy. Love the Steelbook cover too.
Uncharted 4 - THE PS4 game of the year - has already released a Collectors Edition... Is this a misprint - should that be PS3 GotY???
That actually looks pretty good. Too expensive for me though, I'll stick with the standard edition. Hope it has been worth the wait.
@BAMozzy You only like games with guns in them, pew pew
Not sure I'll be able to afford the super duper deluxe edition, but yep - definitely an essential purchase for me. Couldn't care less about Call of BattleFall 1 so very happy with when this is launching, just gotta try and make sure I've finished FFXV and played the heck out of No Man's Sky by then. To think we've already had Dark Souls 3 and Uncharted 4 as well - 2016 is gonna be a hard one to top!
This game doesn't interest me at all and isn't on my list, look's nice for those interested though.
@JoeBlogs
It's $96 on Amazon if you have Prime. I went in for a preorder knowing that A) I can chip away at the cost by buying/applying gift cards to the order and B) I can cancel at any time should I choose to do so. Zero risk.
...I don't know still not sold on this game, I'll await for the reviews and for spoilers, if the birdogcat dies at the end I'll skip since it'll be to sad to me.
The other releases will not impact on this game. Those interested have been waiting years and years and years for this. I do not think it will be a massive success even though its a great looking game I think it has a niche audience. But atleast its here and looking great.
@kyleforrester87 Not true - Horizon:Zero Dawn has a Bow!!!
I also wanted Forza Horizon 3 and that has no form of shooting, Hellblade is more Hack and Slash, Crash Bandicoot is more spin and jump etc.Geralt doesn't use guns - a crossbow but mostly swords,
I admit my favourite genres do tend to feature some form of combat but that generally goes with the Action/Adventure/RPG/Horror Survival genres but not ever game with guns are liked by me either....
Yeah I hope that sells out within seconds in the uk otherwise I will pre-order it.
This game will be amazing just like Ico and SOTC was! Can't wait and would definitely choose this over Titanfall,Call of Duty and Battlefield easily.
Not sure if I'd spend out that amount of money though but then again I love the statue so who knows
I live in the UK. No mention of it will come over here. Thanks to Amazon willingness to ship to uk ($30 extra including import duty) I have secured myself a pre-order.
