European Collector’s Edition of ‘Resident Evil 2’ Remake Revealed

Published

We already know about the North American Collector’s Edition of the Resident Evil 2 remake, as well as that Japanese Premium Edition that will cost you a kidney and part of your liver to buy. And now we know about the European Collector’s Edition, which has some similarities, but actually has one significantly cooler goodie.

Due out alongside the standard edition on January 25, 2019, the collector’s edition of Resident Evil 2 is priced at £229.99 ($290USD), and will include the following:

  • Item Box packaging
  • Steelbook case that includes Resident Evil 2
  • 12” Leon Kennedy figurine
  • Limited Edition R.P.D. keys in collector’s box
  • Resident Evil 2 Art book
  • Soundtrack CD
  • “Made in Heaven” pin badge
  • Poster depicting the Raccoon City Police Department
  • Deluxe DLC Pack card:
    • “Original Version” soundtrack
    • Leon Kennedy Costumes: Arklay Sheriff and Noir
    • Claire Redfield Costumes: Military, Noir and Elza Walker
    • Deluxe Weapon: Samurai Edge – Albert Model

As is the case worldwide, those who pre-order any physical edition of the game at participating retailers in Europe will also receive the following:

  • Deluxe Weapon: Samurai Edge – Chris Model
  • Deluxe Weapon: Samurai Edge – Jill Model

The “Made in Heaven” pin badge is a “meh” for me, but having the four keys used in the Police Department building in a keepsake box? That’s another incentive to try and import at least one of the non-North American editions. Click on the image below to get a better look.

Clive Barker

We told you earlier this month that horror legend Clive Barker is leaving the convention scene behind to focus entirely on his writing, with various upcoming projects in the works.

A series of final appearances from Barker will begin at Days of the Dead Chicago this month, and we’ve learned Barker will also be coming to Monster Mania in New Jersey.

Clive Barker will be signing at Monster Mania 59 in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, which runs from August 2 – August 4, 2024. Stay tuned for more info from the convention.

Barker’s official statement earlier this month explained, “… it’s time to focus entirely on writing. I’m not stopping public events because I’ve lost delight in meeting you all over the years. I’m as passionate as ever about sharing my imagination with readers and moviegoers around the world. In the very room where I’m writing these words, I have the manuscripts for a very large number of projects (Thirty-one of them), some very close to completion, others still telling themselves. There are some wild projects in this collection of works, whether close to finished or done. There are also stories that you all knew I would be finishing.”

“Abarat IV and V are amongst the books at my feet,” he continued. “So is the Third and final book of The Art and the sequel to The Thief of Always. There are also return visits to characters and mythologies you may have thought I would never return to.

“I hope I am still able to surprise you in the decades ahead.”
