IT COSTS €280 AND YET THE COLLECTOR’S EDITION OF ASSASSIN’S CREED SHADOWS IS ALREADY SOLD OUT
It’s coming of age, yet the Assassin’s Creed franchise shows no sign of tiredness. On the contrary, fan enthusiasm is still sky high, as demonstrated by the pre-order trend for the new episode, Assassin’s Creed Shadows .
A few days ago, we learned of Ubisoft’s satisfaction with the progress of pre-orders for Assassin’s Creed Shadows . We don’t know the exact numbers, but insider Tom Henderson, who knows several people in possession of such data, explained that there is great optimism regarding the commercial success of the game.
The insider’s words are also reflected in the trend of pre-orders for the $280 Collector’s Edition of Assassin’s Creed Shadows , which is already sold out at multiple retailers . For example, on GameStop Italia, which holds the exclusivity for the distribution of the collector’s edition in our country, all three versions for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series Same situation also on Game.co.uk (which instead has exclusivity in the United Kingdom), as well as at multiple European retailers and the international retailer Smyths Toys Superstores (as Game Rant reports). A few copies have survived on the pages of Meccha-Japan (there are a few units left for PS5) and on GameStop USA (where there are only the console versions), but they probably won’t last long.
At first glance you might think that the high price hasn’t stopped Assassin’s Creed fans. On the other hand, it is difficult not to be enticed by the many gadgets included, among which the 40 centimeter high statue of Naoe and Yasuke stand out, the 80-page collectible artbook, the life-size tsuba of Naoe’s katana, the world map , the Creed scroll 70×30 centimeters and two sumi-e lithographs. Yet, we cannot help but notice that this time too there is the hand of the scalpers , who have certainly favored the sold out.
Just take a look around the marketplaces to find dozens and dozens of Collector’s Editions of Assassin’s Creed Shadows on sale at a higher price. With a very simple search on eBay, for example, we found more than 70 units for sale at prices ranging between 350 euros and over 500 euros , coming from countries such as the United Kingdom, Germany and Italy. Because of this practice, many players genuinely interested in the Collector’s Edition are now unable to find it at the list price of 280 euros.
