Final Fantasy 16 collector’s edition pre-orders cost more than an Xbox

Square Enix opened Final Fantasy 16 pre-orders for the fancy collector’s edition, but it’ll cost you more than a few Gil for that swanky box

Final Fantasy 16 pre-orders are open, following Square Enix’s big release date reveal during The Game Awards 2022, but if you want the Final Fantasy 16 collector’s edition, you’ll need a sizeable stash of Gil set by for the occasion. Square Enix is charging $349.99 for the box and its contents – more than the cost of an Xbox Series S and over half the cost of the PS5 you’ll need to play it on – for the first six months, at least.

The Final Fantasy 16 collector’s edition comes with the game for PS5 and a steel case, a set of metal pins depicting icons of the Eikons, a cloth map of Valisthea, where FF16 takes place, and a statue depicting the clash between the Eikons Phoenix and Ifrit, all packed in a collector’s box featuring unique artwork in classic Final Fantasy style. The collector’s edition also includes some in-game items – the Blood Sword weapon, a set of Scholar’s Specs, and a digital artbook and digital soundtrack.

If you don’t fancy spending that kind of money, you can also grab the deluxe edition for $99.99. This version comes with the game and steel case, along with the cloth map and a six-inch cloth banner. If you order the deluxe edition from Best Buy, you get a bonus, Best Buy-exclusive steel case along with the Square Enix case.

You can also just get the game itself for $69.99, and if you pre-order it from the Square Enix store, you also get the six-inch cloth banner.
