Blizzard today provided us with the first look at the physical collector’s edition of StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void, which comes with a mix of physical and digital content.
In addition to a version of the game on DVD, collector’s edition buyers get an exclusive two-disc behind the scenes set (both on DVD and Blu-ray) consisting of “over an hour of bonus features.” This includes a StarCraft retrospective and a deconstruction of shots from the game’s cinematics, among other things.
There’s also a soundtrack with 21 tracks from Legacy of the Void, a 174-page “field manual” that sounds like an art book, and in-game bonuses in five of Blizzard’s games.
- StarCraft II: Purifier skins for Protoss Adepts and Colossi, and three Protoss portraits
- World of Warcraft: Archon pet
- Diablo III: Probe pet and Protoss armor transmog
- Hearthstone: Protoss-themed card back
- Heroes of the Storm: Void Speeder mount
Legacy of the Void’s CE will be available at retail alongside the standard game on November 10. According to listings on Amazon, Best Buy, and GameStop, it’ll carry a price of $80, twice that of the standard $40 version. There’s also a third version of the game, the digital deluxe bundle, that comes with the game itself and the bonuses in StarCraft and the other games for $60.
Legacy of the Void represents the final chapter in the StarCraft II trilogy. It also concludes the story that began with the original StarCraft, though that doesn’t necessarily spell the end of StarCraft as a franchise.
