Santa Monica Studio has joined in on the video game industry’s very strange gacha.
PlayStation stores in Europe are now listing God of War: Laufey Collector Box, with this description:
Realised in intricate detail, the God of War Laufey Collector Box includes a light-up resin statue of Faye, capturing her lethal agility in action.
Channel your own piece of Everywhen magic with the accompanying 51 card Oracle Deck. Stunning bespoke illustrations adorn each card with meaning inspired by Faye’s journey.
Discover the incredible concept art that shaped the world of God of War Laufey with a Mini Artbook curated by the development team.
It’s very much like Rockstar’s GTA 6: The Goodtime State – Vice City Collection, down to Laufey’s box not having a copy of the game itself.
But of course, unlike GTA 6, you can buy a disc copy of God of War: Laufey. This trend seems to be so that gamers who already have the game won’t feel obligated to buy a game twice or many more times over.
