Mass Effect 2 Collectors’ Edition Detailed

BioWare, a division of Electronic Arts, today announced that the internationally acclaimed Shooter RPG Mass Effect 2 will also be released as a Collectors' Edition in limited quantities.

Available on January 26 in North America (Jan 29 in EU) alongside the standard edition, the Collectors' Edition of Mass Effect 2 comes in a premium, tin case and includes the full version of the game, a 48-page hardcover "Art of Mass Effect 2" book, Issue 1 of the Mass Effect Redemption comic book, and a bonus DVD with behind-the-scenes and making-of videos. In addition, the Mass Effect 2 Collectors' Edition will include unique in-game weapons and armor that can only be obtained by purchasing this version. With its larger-than-life hero Commander Shepard, intense shooter action, nuanced characters and a rich storyline, Mass Effect 2 is one of the most anticipated titles of 2010.

"We're really excited to roll out this Collectors' Edition featuring so many unique items, including special Collectors' Edition armor and weapons and content that will surprise Mass Effect fans," sagte Dr. Ray Muzyka, Mitbegründer von BioWare und Group General Manager der RPG/MMO-Gruppe von EA. "The limited edition comic book and bonus DVD will really enhance and expand the overall Mass Effect 2 experience."

Die Mass Effect-Trilogie ist ein emotionsgeladenes Science-Fiction-Abenteuer, das in einem riesigen Universum voller gefährlicher außerirdischer Lebewesen und geheimnisvoller, unerforschter Planeten spielt. In Mass Effect 2 schlüpfen die Spieler erneut in die Rolle des heldenhaften Commander Shepard, der seine Crew, bestehend aus einigen der gefährlichsten Agenten aus der ganzen Galaxie, auf einer Mission anführt, die so herausfordernd ist, dass sie potenziell selbstmörderisch ist. Mit intensiver Shooter-Action, einer reichhaltigen futuristischen Handlung, Weltraumerkundung und emotional fesselnder Charakterinteraktion bietet das Spiel ein unvergleichliches Kinoerlebnis.

Mass Effect 2 will be available on the Xbox 360 and PC. The Mass Effect 2 Collectors' Edition will retail at an MSRP of $69.99 on Xbox 360 and $59.99 on PC.
