This edition, crafted by Super Rare Games, comes packed with extra goodies for fans. Priced at £37.20 (or your local currency equivalent), the box includes interior artwork, a detailed manual, an exclusive sticker, and three character trading cards. And don’t worry, the full game is on the cartridge, no download codes here.

Mark your calendars because pre-orders go live on the Super Rare Games website at 6pm GMT / 10am PT / 1pm ET / 7pm CET on January 9th. As this physical release is limited to just 4,000 copies, swift action is advised if you want to secure your box before March arrives.

If you missed it, SteamWorld Build combines the elements of city-building and dungeon management within the beloved robo SteamWorld universe. Known for its heists, digs, and quests, this crossover was well-received in our 2023 review, where we hailed it as “a triumph of mechanical marvellousness”. Check out the full review below.
