Summary

Life Is Strange: Double Exposure's collector's edition doesn't include a copy of the game.
If you want the game, you will need to buy it and the collector's edition separately.
The warning is halfway down the store page which means some will likely buy the collector's edition unaware that they're not getting the actual game.

We're coming out of a weekend that was loaded with video game reveals and new information on games we already knew about. From 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Summer Game Fest through to the Xbox Games Showcase, there's a lot of ground to cover, and there's still more to come. One of the bigger surprises of the weekend so far has been the reveal that a new Life ♒Is Strange game is coming before the end of 2024. Double Exposure comes to multiple platforms on O🐷ctober 29, 2024, but tread carefully when placi🥃ng your pre-orders.

Pre-orders for Double Expo🌳sure on Monday and there are two editions to choose from - a ൲standard for $50, and a collectors edition for $60. Considering what you get with the collector's edition, an extra $10 is probably a deal most fans of the series are going to opt in for. The trouble is, that's not the deal Square is offering. The collector's edition doesn't include a copy of the game at all. Not just a code in a box in place of a disc or cartridge, but literally no copy of the game, neither digital nor physical.

It's noted on that Double Exposure's collector's edition "does not include a copy of the game itself". That means if you want the game and everything that comes with the collector's edition, you will have to buy a copy of the game and the CE separately, so not quite as good a deal as it appears to be at first glance. Th♒at's $110 for both, and I'm assuming t🐽here will unfortunately be people who don't read this or see the warning on the store page who pre-order the collector's edition blissfully unaware that it doesn't include a copy of the game.

Beware Life Is Strange: Double Exposure's Collector's Edition

The reveal that Double Exposure will have a collector's edition that doesn't include a copy of the game comes just two days after the developers of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Black Myth: Wukong confirmed physical copies o🧔f the game won't include the game on a disc. Wukong's physical editions will just be a c🐭ode in a box. A step up from an edition that doesn't include a copy of the game at all, but still not ideal.

Even though the warning on Double Exposure's store page about the collector's edition not including a copy of the game is bolded and in bright red, it's halfway down the page and you need to scroll to see it. Since everything you get with the collector's edition is shown in the image at the top of the page, there will be people who don't scroll down and therefore don't see that warning. There's also a warning on that image, but it is written in very fine print right at the bottom. It feels a little like this is asking for trouble, and selling the collector's edition with the game for $110 alongside a collector's edition add-on for $60 without the game clearly marked on the site would hav♐e been a better way to go.
