Guerrilla Games have today updated the official Killzone 3 blog with details on the special editions of the game that will be available on release early next year.
The Collector’s Edition will come in a yet-to-be-revealed special steelbook case and contain a PlayStation Store voucher that grants access to a downloadable copy of the game’s soundtrack, a dynamic theme and a “Retro” (read “Killzone 2 remakes”) map pack.
Various outlets will also be offering extra “bonus” vouchers, including the Guerrilla Pack that “unlocks all weapons and abilities” for your first 24 hours online, the Fast Starter Pack which offers double XP for the first 24 hours, and the Unlock & Load Pack that grants you three unlock points to level up your weapons and abilities. Retailers will be announced at a later date.
The Helghast Edition of the game is contained in a cast of a Helghast helmet, and includes everything from the Collector’s Edition as well as an art book, marksman statuette, and all of the pre-order bonus packs.
No pricing is yet available for the editions. Killzone 3 was announced for a US release on Feburary 22nd 2011 way back in September, but an EU date is still nowhere to be seen.
