Only yesterday we bought you news that none other than Robert Kirkman is helping the game Oxenfree to be adapted into other mediums, and with the game being available tomorrow (head over to Steam to buy your copy), we have even more exciting news to share with you: The game’s also getting a very cool collector’s edition.
Stay tuned next week for our full review and also an interview with the developers.
From the Press Release:
Night School Studio, the developers behind OXENFREE, have revealed a new partnership with iam8bit to produce the official Collector’s Edition. This news is on the heels of the studio’s recent co-branding franchise agreement with Skybound Entertainment.
The Collector’s Edition will be on sale tomorrow, January 15, at 9am PT, the same day OXENFREE is making its debut on Xbox One, Windows 10, and Steam (PC and Mac). The Collector’s Edition ($55) will ship worldwide. Players can also purchase the game only for $19.99.
Those that purchase the Collector’s Edition will immediately receive a download code for the game on the platform of their choice, as well as a download code for demo songs from OXENFREE’S supporting character Ren’s band. The physical Collector’s Edition will ship at the end of February.
The OXENFREE Collector’s Edition includes:
- A GAME DOWNLOAD CODE for OXENFREE. Select either PC/Mac (via Steam) or Xbox
- An OXENFREE COOLER to keep your beverage(s) of choice nice and cold, large enough to store a six-pack
- A STASH CAN to discretely store your unmentionables, made from an actual, off-the-shelf can (beer for 21+ and soda for customers under 21 years of age)
- A CAN INSULATOR referencing locals’ favorite hole-in-the-wall from the game, Seafood Sammy’s Happy Shanty
- A roundtrip FERRY TICKET to Edwards Island
- REDHEADED BEDWETTERS DEMO TAPE – an EP of tracks from Ren’s band, the Redheaded Bedwetters. Listen closely, because you might hear something important.
- A DOWNLOAD CODE for the REDHEADED BEDWETTERS DEMO SONGS featured on the cassette. They may have had a little help from OXENFREE composer, SCNTFC.
- A foldout TOURIST MAP from Edwards Island. The flipside of the map features a poster image of the OXENFREE key art.
The game was praised as “the first must play game of 2016” by Los Angeles Times and IGN hails it as “the emotional adventure game you need to know about.” OXENFREE was also nominated last week as a finalist in Excellence in Visual Art for the 2016 Independent Game Festival and received honorable mentions in the categories of Excellence in Narrative, Excellence in Audio, and the Seumas McNally Grand Prize.
