Oh, Dark Souls has been released, the Trilogy SKU wasn't though.
Fantastic stuff. The only Souls games I own are, nicely enough, Demon's Souls and Bloodborne so this collection is perfect.
Looks like it'll be a standard edition, nothing more.
499 € for that Collector Edition. OMG.

Unbelievable. I've been waiting for years for the Trilogy to be released on a PC. I don't know why they don't release it on a PC. I have to buy this collector's edition to get the Trilogy on PC and then resell the rest.
Because the original launch date was the same as the Switch Remaster, and when Nintendo got wind of that they probably forced bamco to at least give them one territory where they can actually sell their copy instead of having the entire trilogy for the same price right next to it. Still one of the dumbest moves any publisher pulled in 2018.
Fucking what?!499 € for that Collector Edition. OMG.
If anyone was in the least bit curious about how this game was packaged in the EU:
Bandai Namco has misled myself and probably many others with this release. The 3 discs are packaged in 3 individual cases, not like the promotional images suggest (this is the only reason I bought this collection, so that it was a single Amaray to sit neatly next to Bloodborne on my shelf).
NOPE.... it's a cardboard sleeve around 3 boxes which don't even use the glorious original art, and it looks like crap.
What Bandai Namco are selling it as, even up to today:
What we are actually getting:
They bring it late to Europe, they don't include the wonderful steelbook, and then have the gall to falsely advertise the packaging. Will be returning it.
