Heavy Rain Gets A Collector’s Edition

4:30PM December 19, 2009 | Luke Plunkett

Heavy Rain’s pre-order DLC in the US won’t be pre-order DLC in Europe. Instead, it’ll be part of the Heavy Rain: Collector’s Edition box set.

Yes, Sony are going all-out in the game’s home market, offering the game in a “specially embossed” box (to make it look like it’s been rained on) that includes episode 1 of the Heavy Rain Chronicles, the game’s soundtrack and a dynamic XMB theme for your PS3.

By 2009 standards (well, 2010′s), that’s pretty thin for a special edition. What, no collectible vinyl of that woman sobbing in her kitchen, gun in her mouth?

        Heavy Rain is classified MA15+ in Australia and Sony has confirmed we will receive the same version as released overseas.

          Hooray for the Australian classification board allowing a lower rating for a generally mature rated gamed, because of the short-sighted and inadequate Censorship Act and Regulations which limits free choice and the rights of consumers.

    Well it’s a very liteon CE. One that really I would have expected to be offered for the same price as the standard edition at place like JBHIFI if you pre-order..

    Definately would not pay more than an extra $10 for that.

        GAME has the CE for $104, and the normal edition for $89.

        Also, I doubt the US$5 DLC will cost as much as the AU$15 difference.

    Is the cover art some sort of reference to Blade Runner?
