God of War: Ultimate Trilogy announced for Europe photo

Sometimes it pays to wait. While North America has been enjoying God of War: Collection, Europe has been left without, wondering when it will get its own HD Kratos action. The bad news is, you chaps are going to have to wait until God of War III is released. The good news is you can get it as part of the lavish Ultimate Trilogy edition. 

The package contains a ridiculous amount of God of War content. Check out what you can nab:

  • Pandora's box packaging
  • God of War III
  • God of War: Collection
  • Unique DLC that includes: GoW Combat Arena, Dominus character skin, Apollo character skin, Phantom of Chaos character skin, Forgotten Warrior character skin.
  • Exclusive PSN video download content: Unearthing the Legend franchise documentary.
  • God of War trilogy soundtrack
  • God of War: Blood and Metal EP
  • Artbook
  • Postcards

I think you'll agree that that's f*cking mental! Looks like you European readers have totally lucked out this time. Always nice to see the oft-forgotten PAL market get a nice treat.

Depending on the price, but this looks like a purchase. Take that U.S

If the CE was a lunch box instead of that Pandora's box, I would consider getting it. But, I've decided to go for the regular version of the game instead.

Seeing as I am saving up anyway for this and Yakuza 3, as they are the only two games I will buy new for the first half of next year, I'll get this without a doubt.

Well, it was originally priced at around $100, so I assume it'll be somewhere around £60, give or take a 10.

I was on the fence about GoW collection, but this makes my pants wet just looking at it. I'll probably get it (from the UK, hurr hurr)

Yeah, Jim Sterling is a beast!

How dare him congratulate users of PAL. PAL is LAP spelt backwards and you know who loves giving lapdances? Satan!

It is a nice treat, but what is the price? I think £70 sounds ideal, hopefully it isn't too different from my estimation.

As someone who never played GOW1 or 2, I'm so interested in this.

@ SetoChaos,

I'm with you there, £70 sounds about right for the content - I might be willing to push to £80 depending on the quality of the extras, but it'd be a push.

Either way, it looks nice.

Given that Modern Warfare 2: Stupid Edition with the Soap figure cost £100 over here, I'm expecting this to be in the standard UK million pound range for all the content you get...

Still, I think £70 would be quite reasonable. For two brand new discs alone that would be a saving, and the extras are looking immense! I reckon it'll be plus £100 though given the way far smaller special editions have been priced this year. If not i'll be quite shocked. And have a lighter wallet.

considering it contains THREE games that would go for about 110€ (65+45 for the collection) I'd say 100 bucks is where I'll draw the line. of course I'll get it from England. God bless the Queen and the weak Pound.

I'm a little wary. It looks amazing, but then again so did the Batman: Arkham Asylum CE before it arrived.

Anyone like to put my mind at ease? I don't like being cynical...

I would like the games but can do without the hideous box in my flat.

Interestingly most of the video game retail sites currently have God of War Collection listed as a separate game.

Is this coming to the US? I suppose it doesn't really matter since the PS3 is region free, but it'd be convenient to not have to import it.

I found this

Joystiq said you can get it in America for $100, but I was confused whether or not they meant this Trilogy edition or just the Collector' edition =s

I was planning on getting that pandora-box edition anyway ( via import if needed ) but now it seems I don't have too :-) what an awesome box-set!

Do you grow to 1000 feet tall and fistfight Gods when you open the box? Cause that totally sounds like a great plot twist.

Isn't this just the US Ultimate edition with GoW Collection added?

They really went the extra mile for you didn't they?

First thing I would do is hold my foot over Microsoft headquarters and demand they play nice from now on.

I hoped they'd release the collection earlier, so that i'd at least get some time to play through the two first games before God of War III launches. But now I have to play through the entire God of War trilogy after each other, while at the same time finding time to play some Final Fantasy XIII.

Looks like the American collector's edition, but with God of War I & II tossed in. Either way, I was planning on getting those anyway, shame I can't get all three games in one package here in America.

The God of War Collection with this makes it worth something. Yeah some of us may have the Collection already, but I don't. Why would I want to rebuy the same games again? Well, now that I can get a package deal of all 3, why not?

I will definitely be getting this even though I already imported the GOW Collection. March is going to be very expensive :(

I reckon that about £70-£80 is likely as Sony aren't as greedy as Twactavision so will likely not rip you off as much. I'm extremely interested in this anyhow
