The first thing you’ll notice about the Xillia 2 CE is that it comes in some mighty classy packaging. With a figurine, a full-sized artbook, a plushy, and a stylish faux-pocket-watch compact, his Collector’s Edition puts nearly everything else on the market to shame. Now with Tales of Xillia 2 they’ve outdone themselves again. Symphonia Chronicles brought with it an embarrassment of goodies, including five mini-figures, a classy steelbook case, and a light novel. Tales of Xillia came with a figurine, soundtrack, and classy hardback art book. Ni No Kuni had a beautiful collector’s package (which many fans were unfortunately robbed of thanks to distributor Digital River), and every one of their major releases since then has topped it. Every Wednesday Hardcore Gamer picks a premium collectible from our cavernous swag vaults and tells you whether it’s worth a spot in your Collector’s Cabinet.īandai Namco might not always have the best localizations, but when they release a big game on our shores, you can bet they’ll do right by collectors. There’s nothing quite like owning physical goods, but they can be expensive, and shelf space can come at a premium.
