Final Fantasy Tactics Collector’s Box Sold Separately from Game

Alright, so imagine you’re all hyped about this new Final Fantasy Tactics thing, right? They’ve got this special Collector’s Box, but—get this—it doesn’t even come with the actual game. Yeah, you read that right. You gotta cough up extra cash to play the game itself. Bizarre, huh?

So, folks lost their minds when they heard about this during some big PlayStation event on June 4. You’ve got two flavors of the game: Classic (old-school vibes with a sprinkle of new stuff) and Enhanced (fancy graphics, voices, the whole shebang). But yeah, if you’re in for the Collector’s Box, better open your wallet again for the game.

I mean, the Box just magic’d itself onto the Square Enix site, no gameplay in sight. For $200, they throw in a Ramza Beoulve figurine, some fancy art cards, and a gaggle of Chocobo plushies. But hello, where’s the freakin’ game? You gotta drop another $50 for that. Seriously, who thought this was a good idea? Reminds me of that time the Avowed SteelBook came out with zip inside. Not cool.

Now, what’s in this bizarre treasure trove? Oh, they’ve got a swanky art box, some furry Chocobos (a black one too—fancy!), Zodiac Stone magnets, pop-up art thingy with a church, and some art sheets. You probably can’t grab the bundled version ’cause it vanished faster than free donuts in an office kitchen.

Final Fantasy did promise a little spotlight at the Summer Game Fest on June 6. So, fans still got that to look forward to. And if you just want the simple life, pre-order the game separately. Easy peasy.

Oh, quick side wander—heard about that Astro Bot controller coming back in 2025? Be on alert, collectors. Anyway—wait, where was I? Right, seems like it’s a wait-and-see if they’ll release this combo madness again. Catch ya later!
