Borderlands 2: Collector's Editions detailed
Pre-order DLC! Cloth map! Bobblehead figure!
Upcoming co-op shooter Borderlands 2 will launch with two special editions, publisher 2K Games has announced.
First off, the Deluxe Hunter's Collector's Edition. It costs $99 (about £63) and includes an artbook, stickers, map of Pandora, digital comic download code, a Marcus Kincaid bobblehead plus in-game DLC.
Then there's the Ultimate Loot Chest Limited Edition. It's even more lavish, costing $149 (about £94). It contains all of the Deluxe Hunter items plus a collectible scale replica of the red loot chests found within Borderlands 2. A steel case, Creatures of Pandora ID chart, postcard set, field notes from Sir Hammerlock and a cloth map are also included. Each comes individually numbered.
Both special editions are available for PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game.
Pre-ordering either of these at select retailers will give you entry to the Borderlands 2 Premiere club, allowing you to nab the following in-game items: the Gearbox Gun Pack, a Golden Key, the Vault Hunter's Relic and an all-new fifth character class - the Mechromancer.
The Mechromancer will likely launch after Borderlands 2's release, but will come free to Premiere Club members. It will be regular paid DLC for everyone else.
