Limited Run Games are releasing it next Friday, the 15th. It'll be an open preorder for PS4 and Switch, but the standard edition is limited for Vita. The CEs are limited for all platforms and go live at 10am and 6pm EST. Expect the CEs to disappear very quickly.

Tom duBois did the CE poster art which is really cool.

I’m going to try and get one of those Limited Editions but I’m just happy they’re making the standard edition easy enough to get. You’ll also be able to buy that at Best Buy

The outer box for the CE (with duBois art and classic Konami style metallic gray borders) will be NES-sized for the Switch and Vita versions. That's a neat touch.

So the preorders will be up on the website on the 15th?

[Abnormal Freak]

Yes. The standard editions will be available for at least two weeks. Sale of the CEs will go live in two batches: 10am and 6pm EST. Those usually sell out within a minute so hopefully hardcore CV fans can get copies.

I've been buying from LRG for years, so if anybody has never bought from them before and wants one of the CEs or the standard Vita edition, I recommend doing all of these things in advance: creating an account, adding your address, logging in to your LRG account, logging in to your PayPal account if that's how you're paying. Once you have all that set before sales open up, get on the page of whatever you want to buy and keeping refreshing with F5 until you can add it to cart. Don't spend a lot of time going through checkout because adding something to your cart doesn't reserve it for you. Items can sell out while you're trying to get through checkout.

I'm aiming for a Vita CE myself. Good luck, everybody.

I'm struggling to decide if I want this on PS4 or Switch. The PS4 CE will pair up with my Kickstarter reward for Ritual of the Night, and the box will be bigger, showing off duBois' art better (I realize there's a poster too); while the Switch box is the same size as an NES box, and I already have the download on PS4 and collecting a game card is cooler than a disc. So I dunno how to go about it. :p

I do know the Switch CE will likely be more coveted, so maybe getting it on PS4 is best while people are fighting to get the Switch version.

[Succubus]

Yeah, if past sales are any indication, the PS4 CE should sell out the slowest of the three CEs.

Isn't this game already like a year old?

The digital download sure. But a physical copy just released? People will still eat it up. Especially those who prefer a hard copy they can keep on the shelf. I'd rather have a physical copy to keep. Cause you never know.

[Succubus]

Limited Run Games and publishers like them exist to physically release games that aren't big enough to get regular retail physical releases. So almost everything they release is stuff that first comes out digital-only. Most of their releases are games that are available digitally for quite a while before the physical release happens.

Glad to see more Tom DuBois art. The classics still live!

Glad to see more Tom DuBois art. The classics still live!

Yep! Judging from his art the man hasn't lost a step

Managed to nab a PS4 CE copy in the first wave. Thanks Tina for suggesting getting things set up before the launch because everything across all platforms sold out in 5 minutes.

Very excited about the DuBois artwork and having a legit copy of the soundtrack.

Picked up two CE, one PS4 and one Switch. One's gonna be a gift to my brother.
