The Banner Saga: The Collector's Edition announced
Sold Out to bring celebrated indie hit to stores with content currently unavailable anywhere else
London, UK - 17th July, 2014 - Sold Out Sales & Marketing Limited has today announced the mega indie hit The Banner Saga will be heading to stores on 25th July.
The Viking-themed tactical role playing game which has won countless awards for its beautiful, atmospheric but brutal gameplay will be available as a physical release for the first time ever.
This special Collector's Edition will offer fans a permanent collection of one of this year's best games and will include the core game along with the Official Soundtrack and the Insane Viking Pack the latter, originally an exclusive preorder incentive, now unavailable to buy outside of this edition.
Boasting a style inspired by classic animation films of yesteryear, with stunning hand-drawn visuals capturing a merciless Nordic era, The Banner Saga is a single-player turn-based strategy game in which players take charge of a wandering army sent to fight the warlike Dredge.
Weaving a narrative which often demands tough choices which will affect the narrative permanently, it's a game of strategy and of decisions unlike any other, winning it huge acclaim upon release earlier this year.
(There are some games which demand permanent display and The Banner Saga is unquestionably one of those,) says James Cato Sales Director, Sold Out. (This is the definitive version of the game and the only way those who didn't pre-order the digital version can experience the additional content. We've worked really closely with Stoic to create a pack which does their stunning game justice we know it'll go down well with fans new and old alike.)
The announcement of The Banner Saga: The Collector's Edition is further demonstration of Sold Out's commitment to bring the very best indie digital releases to retail. The firm which recently announced a partnership with Team17 Digital Limited to bring its forthcoming digital titles to retail continues to actively seek new publishing opportunities.
The Banner Saga: The Collector's Edition will be available on PC on 25th July, priced £19.99.
