The best things that come with theDeath Stranding 2Collector’s Edition are all the awesome physical accessories stuffed within its gorgeous box.The box, which itself makes for a spectacular display, features the game’siconic (and creepy) handprint logowith streaking white paint trickling down. Art cards of the title’s various cast members come as a cool collectible. And there’s a letter from Hideo Kojima within the package that fans of the legendary game director are sure to hold onto as a keepsake.
It is a product of KJP’s spirit and soul, going as far as visiting the factory to check the quality for mass production.
Inside theDeath Stranding 2Collector’s Edition is also a 3-inch Dollman figurine. The character is one of the oddest in an already odd cast of characters, but we may have figured outwhat Dollman’s deal isearlier this month. But until we know for sure in June, we can just appreciate how cool this keychain-style collectible is.
Death Stranding 2 Magellan Man Statue
Finally, the real highlight of the Collector’s Edition is the awesome 15-inch Magellan Man Statue. Last month, Kojima tweeted about how he went out of his way to visit the factory where these statues were being manufactured. He cited the Magellan Man as “a product of KJP’s spirit and soul”. Kojima is clearly proud of it, and it’s easy to see why.
