ICO + Shadow of the Colossus boxset revealed, priced, and dated

Dengeki PlayStation reveals Sony Computer Entertainment's designs for the ICO + Shadow of the Colossus boxset and the individual covers.

All editions will release on September 22, 2011 in Japan.
The idividual games are priced at ¥3,980.
The boxset is priced at ¥6,980.

Unlike most other territories, the remakes of the Team ICO classics are individual releases in the Japanese market. However, Sony will be offering the ICO/Wander to Kyozo Limited Box ("Wander to Kyozo" is the Japanese name for Shadow). This set includes both titles, a special box, a special 100 page booklet from magazine publisher BRUTUS, and dynamic custom themes for both titles.

Screw you Japan if you don't bring this to the US! I love the sh!t out of these games.

It'll be SCEA's fault if we don't get the boxset edition here.

Just order it from Play-Asia. I don't think Sony will be missing this opportunity though, they know these games have a lot of fans in western territories.

news4geeks4704d ago

yeah, all 10 of them. It's a niche title.

cb4g4704d ago

Regardless of sales, this is a game that needs to be played by anyone who has a chance to play it.

This is game design at its best.

Unique. Epic.

Emilio_Estevez4703d ago

That would work to get the game, but most of us prolly don't speak Japanese and would like an English version.

MintBerryCrunch4704d ago

did you not read the info...in japan they will sell the games individually with a limited bundled collection when its released...all other territories will get the bundled collection

These games were GOTY in the respective years they came out, they will be GOTY again on the PS3!

Technically Shadow of the Colossus is a PS2 remaster on PS3 but it is interesting seeing the progress made with emulation.

alexgibson2355d ago

Splinter Cell Trilogy was excellent, as was the MGS HD collection. Stealth ftw!

Skull5212355d ago

I’d love to see a Ghost Recon/SOCOM/Rainbow Six collection as well, all great military franchises
