After nearly a year of leaks, Assassin's Creed Origins was officially revealed at E3 on Sunday at Microsoft's press conference. It looks like Ubisoft really took their time with the new entry in the series and it'll change how Assassin's Creed is played and seen going forward. One thing Ubisoft hasn't changed is their absurd collector's editions for their games.
Assassin's Creed: Origins will have an $800 collector's edition which comes with a statue that's over two feet tall and some other trinkets you can read about below:
- Highly detailed 28.7 inch (73cm) resin statue of Bayek, a protector of Egypt whose personal story will lead to the creation of the Assassin’s Brotherhood; and his eagle, Senu – By Ubicollectibles.
- The Collector’s Certificate of Authenticity, numbered 1 to 999.
- An exclusive replica of Bayek’s eagle skull amulet in resin.
- Two exclusive Assassin’s Creed Origins Steelbooks™.
- Four large lithographs signed by the Ubisoft Montreal studio artists.
Only 999 of this collector's edition, which is titled Dawn of the Creed Legendary Edition, will be produced so they're very limited. If you genuinely want one, you can pre-order it from the Ubisoft Store where it's exclusively being sold. Ubisoft will actually send you the collector's edition goodies in July and the game itself will be delivered when it releases in October. You can view a picture of it below.
If you're a bit saner, Assassin's Creed Origins will have some cheaper editions of the game. You can get a Deluxe Edition for $69.99, a Gold Edition for $109.99, and a more traditional collector's edition for $119.99. You can view the contents of each edition below.
