Limited Edition Games (and Collectibles): Best of 2023
Whether you’re a gamer or looking for the perfect gift for the gamers in your circle, this wishlist of limited edition games is literally every gamer’s dream. Sure, some of the stuff on here is a little expensive, but I guarantee that you (or the person you’d gift these to) would love it.
Below, I rounded up the most coveted limited edition and cool collectibles from various games that every gamer dreams of having. These are not just items I’d like to own one day; they are the treasures that the gaming community as a whole fantasizes about. And trust me, these goodies will find their way into my hands sooner or later.
1. Ghost of Tsushima Collector’s Edition – PlayStation 4
This one is currently my most wanted item on this list. The original price of this was $169.99 and currently, the cheapest I managed to find is somewhere around $450 (OUCH). I should have gotten it way back when it was still fairly affordable, but it is what it is.
2. God of War Ragnarök Collector’s Edition – PS4 and PS5 Entitlements
With an original price of $199.99, this relatively new game’s collector’s edition has maintained its value. So, my chances of getting it are pretty high.
3. Titanfall Collectors edition
Priced at $250, this edition boasts a 19.5” Titan Figurine with Diorama and other enticing extras. Although the current market value is around $400, it’s a fair deal for such an awe-inspiring item.
4. Assassin’s Creed Origins – Legendary Dawn Of The Creed Edition
Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed franchise has seen its share of collector’s editions, but the Legendary Dawn Of The Creed Edition, originally priced at $800 with only 999 units made, stands out to me. I know, I know, my chances of actually acquiring it are slim to none but hope is still there.
5. Batman: Arkham Origins – Collector’s Edition
From what I gathered, the original price was somewhere around $120 which in my opinion is a steal for a figurine of Joker. But the lowest price I could find now is $250 — still not a lot, but I’d rather wait and see if it will get cheaper at any point.
6. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 – PS5 Collectors Edition
A must-have for Spider-Man fans, priced at around $200. Considering its recent release, the value is likely to remain stable. Perhaps a self-gift for Christmas is not a bad idea after all.
7. Borderlands: The Handsome Collection — Claptrap-in-a-Box Edition
Simply put, it’s amazing. The original price was around $400 but rejoice—cheaper options are now available. “I see it, I want it”—every gamer’s sentiment about that coveted claptrap.
8. Doom Eternal Limited Edition Game
The cool helmet alone justifies the $200 original price. While the cost has increased a bit, the appeal of this collector’s item is undeniable.
9. Elden Ring Premium Collector’s Edition
Admittedly, I missed out on the original $260 price, and now the lowest I could find is above $1000. A high price to pay, but hopes linger for another round at a more reasonable cost.
10. Horizon Forbidden West Collector’s Edition and Regalla Edition
Choosing between the two is tough; ideally, having both is the dream. Confident that both editions can be acquired for around $400, it’s a goal worth pursuing.
Final Thoughts
Yes, it’s undoubtedly an expensive journey for the gaming community, but step by step, we’ll make these dreams a reality. The journey may be pricey, but the excitement is priceless.
