Halo 5: Guardians Limit edition does not include physical format
During E3 2015, 343 Industries revealed the contents of the Halo 5: Guardians Collector’s Edition. If you percataste in the package description it specifies that the edition contains a digital copy, not a physical as usual with these issues. Thus, during the panel Halo San Diego Comic-Con, Frank O’Connor, director of the franchise, was questioned about it.
O’Connor, said the reason for this decision. “The honest answer is that we have done a lot of research and we do not take this decision lightly,” he said. “We have a significant number of people who want to play immediately. And with the digital version, we have achieved a balance in production dates of the statue and all this.”
“And we got it. Nobody thought that this announcement was coming and it would be easy and that everyone would be happy. But the reality is that humans feel a more than a profit loss. So some things do not make up things you lose, “he continued.
But 343 Industries is seeking a solution for everyone, though he will be released later. “The good news is that we are working on trying to reach a solution that can make people who want a physical disk are felices.Y hope to have more to announce about it another time.”
Thus, the collector’s edition of Halo 5: Guardians will be available one week before the release of the game, this to give the possibility to the players to get the game from the first minute of release through an early discharge.
“But we hear,” O’Connor said. “These decisions are very difficult logistics. The statues are to be sent earlier than other versions. Some people want the digital version. And as we move into the digital and physical transition, while we expect to have a way to resolve this situation for Halo 5 , the industry is changing. And the way people play console games, in particular, continues to evolve more and more towards digital “.
“But we have this singularity by big and physical objects. So we are trying to resolve this, and we hope that we can make sure everyone gets what they want to make them happy as possible.”
Halo 5: Guardians coming to Xbox One on October 27 in versions Standard, Digital Deluxe Edition and Limited Edition; Moreover, the Limited Collector’s Edition will be priced at $250 and will be available a week before, on 20 October.
