Metroid: Samus Returns Collector’s Edition for Europe is bloody marvellous

By Shabana Arif

Finally Europe gets a decent special edition.

Metroid: Samus Returns was announced during E3 for the 3DS. The game is a re-imagining of Metroid 2: Return of Samus and will use 3D renderings and environments which Samus can explore in two-dimensions.

We already know the release date, and now we have a peek at the collector’s edition for Europe.

The Legacy Edition makes the North American special edition look a bit crap by comparison.

According to Nintendo’s UK website, it contains:

• Physical version of the game
• Download code for the original Game Boy game Metroid 2: Return of Samus
• Steelbook case shaped like a Game Boy cartridge
• CD featuring 25 tracks from across the Metroid series
• Gold “S” pin badge
• Morph Ball 3D keyring
• 40-page artbook

The North American special edition comes with the CD, but we’ll have to see if they get something on a similar scale.

Metroid: Samus Returns is set for release on September 15 for the 3DS.
