"Capcom is pleased to announce the Resident Evil 5 Collector’s Edition.
First teased last week at the Consumer Electronics Show in Vegas, the Collector’s
Edition will be available on day one of the game shipping Friday, March 13,
2009. Available for only a limited time, gamers will be able to pre-order the
collectible set starting today at the Capcom store at www.capcom.com. On launch
date, the set will be available at all major retailers in North America with
a price of $89.99 for the Xbox 360 and PLAYSTATION 3.
For fans of the highly popular series, the box set is not to be missed as it
will include a host of never-before-seen collectible items not available anywhere
else. All designed around RE5’s Kijuju setting and the game’s in-depth
storyline, the box will include a Tricell messenger bag, Chris Redfield figurine,
BSAA patch and Kijuju-inspired pendant.
Bringing the entire collection together is a custom made steel case with special
art showcasing signature elements of the RE5 campaign – the Kijuju writings,
ominous number five and two-player co-op. Inside the steel case is where the
real action lies, with a two disc set including the game and bonus disc with
additional special features. The Making of Resident Evil 5 feature, first shown
at the Tokyo Game Show, will be released on the bonus disc for the first time.
A digital art gallery showcasing the game’s incredible HD graphics and
impressive art style and a Resident Evil Degeneration Trailer will top off the
special features making a bonus disc that is a must-have for all Resident Evil
devotees."
