God of War Laufey is the next big game to get a collector box without the game itself.

Does two high profile releases make a trend?

If so, I don’t like this trend.

    The GoW Ragnarok collector’s edition was apparently 200 w/ the digital game, this box is 150 without a game. Adjusting for the fact that the world sucks and everything costs more, seems about right to say they’re not charging for the missing game? (Tho I’d still say both are overpriced.)

    I wouldn’t want a digital copy of a game, but I know many people would. That’s the upside, is that people can buy whichever version of the game they want separate from the extras.

    Steelbook is a weird one to exclude, and I can understand the frustration if that’s something you want and they’re not making one.

      The ragnarok version actually did not include the game. Only a steelbook for you to put the game in if you bought it separately. I think both are overpriced for what they are.
