What good is the year's most anticipated video game release without an expensive Special Edition and an even more expensive Collector's Edition? You had to know that Rockstar Games wasn't going to miss this chance to cash in on the game everyone's talking about, and the game that'll close out this generation with a glorious bang. Probably lots of bangs. I can't blame them, and I wouldn't blame you if you were drooling over these.
This morning, Rockstar Games announced a $79.99 Special Edition for Grand Theft Auto V, as well as a $149.99 Collector's Edition.
The SE version comes with the following goodies:
- Full retail copy of Grand Theft Auto V
- Collectible SteelBook with Exclusive Artwork – features custom color and metallic treatments to bring out the detail of the Michael, Trevor and Franklin artwork created exclusively for this SteelBook
- Blueprint Map – exclusive, 21.5” x 26.75” map displays a blueprint view of Los Santos and Blaine County
- Special Ability Boost – Michael, Franklin and Trevor each have a unique special ability. With this boost, the special ability bar will generate 25% faster
- Stunt Plane Trials – single-player Stunt Plane Trials let players take on additional aerial challenges spread throughout Los Santos and Blaine County
- Bonus Outfits, Tattoos and More – Michael, Franklin and Trevor get bonus outfits in their wardrobes, character specific tattoos at tattoo parlors, and special deals from shopkeepers across Los Santos and Blaine County
- Additional Weapons – when visiting Ammunation stores in single-player, merchants will have special weapons in their inventory available for free: the Pistol .50, Bullpup Shotgun and melee Hammer.
The CE version comes with all that, plus these extras in a black matte scuff-resistant box:
