Shenmue fans, finally can talk about this. The Shenmue rerelease is getting a collector's edition in Japan for PS4 only. No collector's edition outside of Japan.
Apparently there is a reason why this isn't available outside of Japan but he isn't able to go into more detail. Maybe it's just the music rights or something.

Still, if anyone wants it, here is a link to the page in Amazon JP.

worth noting that the Soundtrack contain some unreleased pieces of music including (for the first time) a whole disc for SII.
i will place my pre-order today for sure... the cover art alone is tempting enough.

It's more like a first print edition. In Japan many PS4 titles have them.

Bloodborne, for example

or Gravity Daze 2

Also I prefer limited edition like this over collector's edition with figurines and other junk.

Pre-ordered immediately... I can't have too many versions of these games.

I was angry for a second then realised how shit that CE looks lol
Honestly I see it as a good thing. As long as we're not getting snubbed like the US did with Bayonetta 2 Climax Edition.
Thanks for the link; do you know if they charge immediately or do they wait until shipping time like US Amazon?
Shipping time. I've used Amazon JP before.
Will this have English?
According to the person who posted this originally, it does not.

I still don't get why Sega did not release a Shenmue Soundtrack collection that contains all the tracks for both games.

Even when they released the first OST, tons of tracks were not included.

And Shenmue II, did not have a soundtrack release whatsoever.

That link is for the Amazon-Edition that comes with some wallpapers for PC & phones and won't drop in price.

Rather order this version, which is the "normal" limited edition and will be ~25% off in a couple of days.
Thank you for this! I'll update the OP.

Amazon JP still confuses me with all the extra stuff they add sometimes.

Yeap, this type of edition seems to be getting very popular in Japan. I wish I had pre-ordered the Japanese edition of the Last Guardian.

SEGA already did it for Sonic Mania.

According to the person who posted this originally, yes it does have English sub and dub.
Is that sure ? IGN Japan already stated that the JP PS4 ver. doesn't contain english dub, unlike the western version :
"国内PS4版の音声は日本語だけだが、海外版は日本語と英語の両方のボイスから選べる。"
And it wouldn't surprise me to learn that it doesn't even contain EN text.

Considering how fortunate we are that S1 and 2 are even seeing the light of day again, I'm not upset about not getting this outside Japan.

Not sure why people are taking shots at the artwork. Also, are we sure this will definitely have English language option? Not like it matters, as the regular edition is coming out so soon and this version isn't out until November.

At any rate - ordered. I have to support this series dammit.

This came out November 22nd in Japan. Does anyone have it, and is it pre-patched?

I'd love to see some pictures of the limited edition!
