Over on the Guild Wars 2 website NCSoft has taken the lid off the Guild Wars 2 collector’s edition, which will soon be available for pre-order with some incentives.

The site only carries information for the UK market at this point, and we’re awaiting confirmation from local distributor, Megarom, on the pre-order availability, contents and pre-order incentives for the SA market.

The UK price for the collector’s edition is listed at £129.99 (±R1,550), although this might not reflect SA’s retail price.

There will also be a “Digital Deluxe” and “Digital” edition of the game which will become available for pre-purchase on 10 April 2012.

The Guild Wars 2 Collectors edition features a bunch of physical and digital goodies.
