I confirmed from a BB manager 99% sure they will not be made available in-store and if so only when you pick up the game and paid in full.

No $5 deposit and get the steel then not buy the game like previous releases

Seems so as its Canadian sister chain also has the Steelbook offered and there's a picture of it on its Facebook page:

I've been hearing that Best Buy isn't adding the case when you pre-order the Collector's edition online. Can anyone confirm or deny this? Was planning on ordering the CE through them just for the case

stlcards · 09-23-2013, 07:33 PM

I saw last week that you can preorder in store for $5.

Ashamed Pegasus · 10-22-2013, 01:25 PM

The metal cases shipped out on Monday. Should arrive before Friday.

solarrdadd · 10-24-2013, 10:38 PM

it looks to be the same size steelbook case as the new tombraider was from Target.

i did get in on the Game Stop steelbook of Beyond 2 Souls and that was a standard G2 sized case.

G1, G2, i don't care, i'm just happy to be able to get them before they sellout!

you might be right, but, i just ordered mine tonight and it clearly states "with collectable case". mind you, i put it in my cart online under my BB account about a week ago and it was still there tonight so i went ahead and purchased it. even got one for my daughter.

if she doesn't care about the case, i might be willing to sell it.

Photos were posted by jayce20, over on Hi-defninja

Really hoping this is the case included with the collectors edition. What a beauty

If you bought the UK Collectors Edition that's the same case. The US version does not include it.

txr00k · 10-25-2013, 01:27 AM

I ordered both, just cause the statues were too nice to pass up on either edition.

Since nobody posted it here's the case from BBY. Sorry for the purple tint. HTC One that has the known purple tint camera issue

Petra_Kalbrain · 10-26-2013, 12:13 AM

So, it's a Metalpak and not a steelbook then.

This photo looks like a G2 (PS3) size. Is it? I picked up mine, but the Best Buy guy said all they had were the bigger, G1 sized cases. The UPC is also different. Can anyone confirm if Best Buy has G2 cases?

I'm pretty sure they're all G1 to accommodate both Xbox and PS3. Making two different cases would be more costly for them I'd assume.

I just went back to Best Buy and exchanged the case for a G2 size. Apparently the BB employee didn't actually look in the box of these when he said he did earlier.

So, there are definitely two cases sizes, which is cool.

Also, I don't like MetalPaks, especially ones without the title on the spine, but this one gets a pass because of all the extra super embossing. It looks fantastic opened up.
