If you’re as pumped as I am about the upcoming Resident Evil 2 remake, then you’ve likely been keeping your fingers crossed for a collector’s edition. Well, cancel your standard and deluxe edition pre-orders because your prayers have been answered. Today at SDCC, the Resident Evil 2 Remake Collector’s Edition was announced, and it is impressive.
Of course, I love Resident Evil 2, so I’m pretty easily amazed. For some, the price tag is going to seem a bit high for what you get. The collector’s edition is a GameStop exclusive and will retail for $199.99. It will come with the following DLC which can also be found in the deluxe edition:
- Original Version Soundtrack Swap
- Leon Costumes:
- Arklay Sherrif

I’m so ready for this game I can barely see straight. You can pre-order the Resident Evil 2 Remake Collector’s Edition for Xbox One or PS4 exclusively at GameStop right now, and play the game itself when it releases on January 25, 2019.
