This version comes with lots of physical extras, including a steelbook, an artbook, and a figure of Leon wielding a shotgun and sporting his signature brown jacket. The Collector's Edition is available for the grand sum of $249.99/£249.99.

Resident Evil 4 Remake is set to release on March 24, 2023, and pre-orders are open now.

My love of gaming sprang from successfully defeating that first Goomba in Super Mario Bros on the NES. These days, PlayStation is my jam.
