Hi everyone
Following my recent blog post, I’m really excited to share the design of the SCEE God of War III Ultimate Trilogy Edition box with you guys. I hope you like it, let me know your thoughts!
The Ultimate Trilogy Edition can be pre-ordered in selected retailers across Europe, Australia and New Zealand. It’s a limited run so make sure you pre-order it before it’s sold out! This very special edition comes in a high-end, sculpted replica of Pandora’s Box with an epic outer box which features an acetate window: you can actually see Pandora’s box before you even open it!
Once open, you will find the following items:
- God of War III (of course!)
- God of War Collection (gentle reminder, this is God of War and God of War II, remastered in HD, running at 60 fps, with Trophy support, all on one Blu-ray Disc)
- Extra game content downloadable via PlayStation Network:
- God of War Combat Arena containing an exclusive environment and seven challenges to complete
- Dominus character skin
- Apollo character skin
- Phantom of Chaos character skin
- Forgotten Warrior character skin
- Special audio bonus
- God of War Trilogy Soundtrack – God of War I, II, and III scores from the game (3 CDs in total)
- God of War: Blood and Metal EP – a heavy metal homage featuring original music inspired by God of War (downloadable via PSN)
- Additional content:
- Artbook
- Postcards
Quick reminder… some of you may recall my last post where I mentioned that a new trailer will be unveiled on February 11 on PlayStation Blog… well, it will actually be in the morning on February 12 instead. Make sure you tune in; you won’t be disappointed.
That’s about it for now… any comments or thoughts let me know!
Thach

“But you’re right, one of the differences is the documentary which is not in the PAL box.”
May I ask why it’s not included.If it’s localisation,can’t you stick it on the UK movie store.I’d buy at high price.

110 quid! No, thanks.
Is there a reason you are not releasing the God of War collection? All I want is the games, not really interested in all the other stuff with its Ultimate pricing.
At this point you have lost a sale, as I would like to experience the first two games in the series before playing the third.

Goodness, I cant wait until this played out franchise is over. The IP went to **** after Jaffe left. Graphics arent everything. You people are so young and naive…raise your standards.

What does the package weigh?
Because i have ordered it from game.co.uk and i live in denmark, and they only send things that weigh below 1kg outside the UK.
so does it weigh more than 1kg?
55

So…..this pack is ONLY available in the UK?
What about the rest of Europe….

Not an aweful lot in the box for £110. As someone else above said, they already basically got the Trilogy by buying them seperately from the US at £50 odd quid.
Sorry, but £110 for this is just a blatant ripoff for very little else in the box. Afterall, it’s not like God of War 1 & 2 had to be started from scratch, they have only been rehashed and not including the ingame movies, just the main game graphics???
Nope, think I’ll wait for the price to drop to £69.99 when Game can’t get rid of them.

You have took out the documentary?
So let me get this straight – you were charging £109.99 for this Ultimate Edition, with the documentary and the other stuff. Now you have took out the documentary and are still charging £109.99. How can you charge the same price for less items? This already too expensive edition needs a price cut. Everyone already thought it was too expensive and that was with the documentary, now what will they think now that only Americans are getting it. I really hope there is word of a price cut before this is released, has the film was one of the most enticing things in the edition. It won’t be fair to people who have already pre-ordered, who might not get this information, and are expecting to get the documentary but will not get it.
One of two things needs to happen:
1. Lower price
2. Include documentary.

I pre-orderd it for €180, is that overpriced then? I dont really mind, i also bought the Prestige edition of MW2 but still. I dont know how the normale price…

Posted on 5 February, 2010 at 2:42 pm by Amherst_Wind_4
I know we’re supposed to be out of the recession now but not so much that I’d spend £110 on a game, thats ridiculous even for a special edition. To think I lamented the price of the FFXIII Collecter’s Edition, then you guys pull this?
71

What happened to the making of documentary?
Why Bood and Metal is a DLC? We are talking about a 150 euro special edition, I think an extra CD is more than justified.
How long is the artbook?
Im sorry, but I think we need more info about the Trilogy Edition. The Pandoras Box is awesome but 150 euro is a lot of money, we need a true Ultimate Edition. Show me the documentary, a Blood and Metal CD release and a big hard cover artbook and Im happy.
72
Posted on 5 February, 2010 at 2:47 pm by PSN-OmniusALX
Awesome!
I had seen a picture of the Pandora’s box somewhere on the net (it may have been GAME’s website)
Regardless, I’m happy knowning I’ve got my copy pre-ordered! I know many people are complaining about the price, yeah I never thought I’d pay over £100 for a game/games, but this is a rather nicely put together collectors edition. Over the years I’ve always opted for CE’s of major games, some I’ve been disappointed with (Batman AA for example) with US vs Euro/UK versions, but I’m glad that with this collection, the must sort after GoW HD Collection is part of it! (I don’t do imports) So if this is the way to get all 3 games in one box with all the extra trimmings, count me in! Can’t wait until March! I just hope I have the time to play all of these games that are coming from now until then that I’ve got on pre-order.
73
Posted on 5 February, 2010 at 3:03 pm by krioto
So can you buy the GOW collection on it’s own, or are we restricted (unlike our american counterparts) to purchasing all the other rubbish in this bundle as well????
74
Posted on 5 February, 2010 at 3:04 pm by niked
I have pre booked it! THIS WILL BE F*** EPIC!!!
75
Posted on 5 February, 2010 at 3:07 pm by krioto
OK, it seems like we are – 1 less sale for greedy sony. Just release GOW Collection as a stand alone and stop being so greedy.
76

Why isn’t the Ultimate Trilogy edition up for pre-order on any of the Australian game retailer’s websites like ebgames.com or jbhifionline??
77
Posted on 5 February, 2010 at 3:23 pm by thorgrimm
I have it pre-ordered ^^
Do you know the price in euros? (not withdrawing my pre-order if it’s higher than 150 euros)
78
Posted on 5 February, 2010 at 3:24 pm by Cesarcsrf

Posted on 5 February, 2010 at 3:28 pm by GhostViper
Oh wow, that is awesome. Need to get this as I only seen my friend play the 2 first games a little, and thats all I’ve experienced.

The box looks great, one inkling I have though is that the Collectors edition that is in some european countries (http://www.webhallen.com/prod.php?id=97341) will be in the ultimate trilogy edition, the CE includes some of the stuff in UTE so am I right(please say yes)
BTW it looks awesome and this is by far the best collectors/special edition ive ever seen
83
Posted on 5 February, 2010 at 4:07 pm by AHA-Lambda
Wait a minute!?!? Where is the documentary!!?
It already costs way too much dont start pulling content now or I will be sorely tempted to cancel my pre order :flame:

Hi
PLEASE answer my question. I live in France and i preordered this Pandora Box from Game UK.
Can you confirm that the Pandora Box that is sold in the UK contains FRENCH for both GOW Collection and GOW 3 ??

I am deeply, deeply disappointed with this. Saddest news to begin the weekend with!
After hearing all those worse boxart covers the US got lately (Heavy Rain and more), I really hoped this would be so much good after seeing totally awesome box from the US ultimate edition.
And now I also see that the documentary is not included! Who cares about postcards? Give us the docu!
93
Posted on 5 February, 2010 at 5:15 pm by YJDO
I don’t think most of you are realizing something.
You are pretty much paying for GOW III (70€) and GOW: Collection(70€) (At least here in Portugal) add it up and its 140€ somewhat around if not more than what this trilogy pack costs
94
Posted on 5 February, 2010 at 5:34 pm by Hellscovern
While it’s nice and all it doesn’t justify the price tag £110 is insane even if it’s limited edition.
you could import the god of war collecton and god of war 3 far cheaper than this, ok you wont get the extra skins and cd soundtracks and the fancy box but does that really matter.
It’s not like there is a recession going on.. oh wait there is.

wheres the big Director’s Cut of God of War: Myth to Legend documentary thats was once going to be in it as a PSN DL.
I also want to say that its quite sad that a fews others like myself have asked about the ducumentary and havent got a reply about it one way or the other.
I think its safe to say its prabably going to a buy it separately PSN DL.
97
Posted on 5 February, 2010 at 5:43 pm by Hellscovern
YJDO.. it maybe that way for you in portugal.. but you can import the U.S versions of GOW collection for £17.90 and GOW III for £35.81 plus P+P which is around £4.. all in all under £60 in total.. hardly makes the box, skins and cd’s worth the extra £50 in my view.
