Good God, Crimson Desert’s PS5 Collector’s Edition Costs a Whopping $280

We understand that Crimson Desert is poised to be an extremely ambitious open-world venture, but would you invest $280 / €280 / £250 for a Collector’s Edition of the title?

That’s the price of the deluxe package, assuming the pricing model remains unchanged before its release on 19th March.

This is what you actually receive in the Collector’s Edition (and yes, it does come with the actual game, which is always a perk these days):

• Complete Game (Crimson Desert)

• Unique 17” Diorama showcasing Kliff battling the Golden Star

• Limited Collector’s Edition SteelBook®

• Textile Map of Pywel

• Message from the Developer

• Greymane Pin Brooch

• 3 Character Photo Cards

• 3 Patches

In-Game Additional Content:

Ultimate Pack:

• Tormented Soul Bow

• Derictus Spear

• Sielos Longsword

• Shroud Lantern

• Hyperion Horse Tack Set

Deluxe Pack:

• Balgran Shield

• Exclaire Horse Tack Set

• Kairos Plate Set

Pre-order Bonus: Khaled Shield

PlayStation®5 Exclusive Bonus: Grotevant Plate Set

Admittedly, that’s quite a substantial diorama, but we believe it must be exceptionally high-quality to warrant such an astonishing price tag.

If you’re not entirely prepared to shell out that much for the Collector’s Edition but desire some extras included in the package, the Deluxe Edition offers everything except the statue and the contents of the ‘Ultimate Pack’ for $90 / €90 / £80.

In contrast, the standard edition will be priced at your usual $70 / €70 / £55.
